Me: Reasonable.
SW: Erm, we have a problem with £$%^ users trying to connect.

I dont think this could be called research anymore, we are over in the ![Rose | [Rose]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif) area now.
However ![Green Alien | [Alien]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/alien.gif) seems perfect for the job
