I have just been reading the Optus stuff on 'Internet dumping' or
'modem hijacking': http://www1.optusnet.com.au/helpdesk/tutorials/dumping.html

 According to the gumph you can be disconnected, then reconnected
using premium rate phone numbers.

How can that be? (I'm not sure if this is a Linux question or not --
does it depend on a windoze security flaw or is it something entirely different?)

Thanks,
Alan
