DES CRACKING SCREENSAVER Sorry for writing twice, beside wanting to add that I might be able to do some programming for a worthy cause, I just got a rather good idea to make a screensaver unique and interesting ( making people want to burn cycles ) Picture this: the user upon installing the program points at his/her location on a world map. This location is send to the keyserver, which sends back highly compressed information about where other people are running their "screensavers", the screensaver itself can simply display a rotating globe, where the different densities of global usage is given in colour shades, showing an inverse sunclock of sorts. I think such a concept might give the DES-cracking screensaver a critical mass. frank
