My buddy and I used to have contests on who could punt who first.

Ah.... damn, I needed a life.

I remember my friend was working on a Shield/Reflect program. It would read for incoming punters/proggies, and if it detected any known ones, it would block it and return to sender. Don't know if he ever got it working...I think he left the 3.5" sitting on his HD one night and it got wiped.

How did those programs work exactly, gave them an internal error by constantly flashing the same message? I never got the chance to use one, I tried in 3.0 but none of them ever worked.
