I remember something about a program named spoon. Seems to be a hacker C program of some sort that eats up a systems resources. Does anybody know the origin of this program? We've discovered a couple of users with binary only and were wondering exactly what it does. Source would be helpful, but not necessary. I'm guessing it mallocs all available memory for a specified period of time. Was it this list? Doug Hughes Engineering Network Services doug@eng.auburn.edu Auburn University
