Hiya,

From the The New Dictionary of Cultural Literacy, Third Edition. 2002
To do something trivial and irresponsible in the midst of an emergency; legend has it that while a fire destroyed the city of Rome, the emperor Nero played his violin, thus revealing his total lack of concern for his people and his empire.

Nero (the program), otherwise known as Nero BURNING ROM, is a CD/DVD Burning program, named as a play on words:
NERO fiddled while ROMe BURNED ;)

Now the really funny thing is:
While you are burning a disk, you really SHOULD NOT FIDDLE with your system as that increases the chances of a faulty burn: FIDDLING is IRRESPONSIBLE while BURNING ROMs with Nero !LOL!

Hope this helps ;)

Life is just more of the same:

Yeah, i particularly liked this post:

Wanna bet??

How's about this for just a starter then:

From your posting times and the packet watch I have been running, I have got this info:

You are using an Anonymous HTTP Proxy of address 146.145.53.182

Further investigation shows that as the primary anonymous address used by a program called "Steganos Internet Anonymity".

Packet tracing from that point led me back to so-7-0.hsa2.london1.level3.net

Suspecting you did not remove the subscribe request from your postings, a packet trace gave me a Name.

Further watching told me you were using BTOpenWorld as your service provider.

So, M. W**der of East London on BTOpenWorld...
Tell me you can't be touched NOW.

Oh, you may be interested to know, I have sent an Abuse Report to your Service Provider, listing your I.P address and copies of the relevant posts with times and trace-routes.

Have Fun...
