i would've if i were one of yer friends who used kazaa. btw, did they get your kazaa user name right? or are you kazaalite user@ whatever...

i'm sure Fibies goes and tell the suspected terrorists, or emails them saying, you are being invistigated for possibily being a terrorist, if you have any questions, please feel free to call me at this number and extension, and we can talk about locking you up for life!!

Well, then early some morning he'll here "FBI!", and they'll knock down his doors, and point guns at him, and stuff like that. :frown:



yeah, having a raid done on you is not fun. 18 cops in a 900sf apt is kind of ugly. 8 mos later and thousands of $$$$ later they didn't find anything. they did find some "backed up" software, but didn't care, they were looking for something really bad - some emails talking sh~t to somebody, not death threats, just talking smack.
