Nahh, that's not WJM enough. Let's include a list of known-bad applications
in the dll code, and anytime a cygwin process starts up let's have it scan for
Logitech and Norton and Symantec and ZAPro and drop a hippo on any that it
finds!
...and by 'drop a hippo' I mean "Kill all processes and services, wipe the
registry keys, and delete all executables and drivers".
Seriously, we'd be doing the world a favour!
cheers,
