i was just thinking about hotline the other day, seems many of the sites
are down.  if you use the newer versions of hotline i'd strongly suggest
blocking several sets of ip address, both to reduce ads and increase
privacy.  there are several back doors in the newer versions, i've
previously found the older version, 1.2.3, often gives access to sites
that simply ignore newer versions.  there has been widespread stories
that some of the hotline people are actively using the back doors to
catch people who are stealing software, and some of my firewall logs
suggest it may be true.  of course i recommend adding the newer icons to
the older version.  be careful though, there are some bogus super
versions that are worms or worse, especially if downloading directly
from a sites upload directory.

having said that, i'll be looking for a new search engine for hotline or
some good sites, i'd love to find mac manuals and testing utilities.
