A revoked key, and a rather small key size, this rings a bell, some of you may recall that some time ago Paul Leyland factored that key.
For the record, that key was factored by a team consisting of Paul Leyland, Arjen Lenstra, Alec Muffett, and Jim Gillogly. -- Jim Gillogly 23 Winterfilth S.R. 1998, 15:10 12.19.5.10.16, 7 Cib 9 Yax, Ninth Lord of Night

Yes sorry about that. The name that I remembered in association with the attack was Leyland, probably because he posted the announce. Credit where credit is due. Adam
even in cyberspace, what goes around comes around..!! I've observed some keys/bits have a certain "stigma" attached to them. you might get good press breaking other keys, but not them. yes, performance-artist-known-as-toto, there are black clouds even in cyberspace
