LAME isn't vulnerable to an attack. Maybe some of their users are. LAME only distributes source. And they claim they are for educational purposes only. It's not illegal to distribute source to a patented algorithm, because to get the patent they have to disclose the method anyway and source is just a description of the algo. However a binary is an implmentation of the algo and there would violate the patent. -- Ben Reser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://ben.reser.org If your love has no hope of being welcomed do not voice it; for if it be silent it can endure, a guarded flame, within you. - The Wisdom of the Sands
