Until now we didn't have a problem with the Sniff stuff. If it does
cause problem, we could probably remove it.
SNiFF+ was a commercial product with a free version. The company
providing it, Take Five, apparently no longer exists. takefive.co.at is
now someone's personal blog. takefive.com is not working.
Hmm, found a hint that they are taken over by Wind River Systems.
Their website cannot find anything for "sniff".
I guess it's dead...
