PPNoReq 9.9 release date: 26th of September by Buster & Fuzz yes dudes! I hate to talk drivel, so let me ram home the point... some of you might have wanted to get rid of the Password requester, so here you go! The advantage is clear. Someone unauthorized might want to load a program of yours. Well, for him there won't be a sign of action. Only you know that in fact you have to enter your designated password (But don't get trapped there by yourself and forget the trick!). If he has a short fuse, he will give up and think it's a butt-dumpling program. Perhaps he'll try Snoopdos. But it will only tell him something like this: name [5] name openlib intuition.library Now, which program doesn't use that one? An additional feature is that you have to directly enter the password. Don't klick anywere or change tasks in this moment, because you will have no try left this way. Normally people tend to klick the hell out of the mouse if something doesn't work. So unauthorized people are ferreted out by their lacking competence (btw: keep the competence among the elite, don't spread this to lame-assed dill-weeds). Of course this is no nostrum to ensure anything that remotely connects to privacy (there's plenty of leeway left to get to the core, especially since 2-cool's kewl ppdecrypter released yesterday) but at least it adds to the intricacy and complexity of whatever and makes life a bit harder for some un-hardcorey panty-waists.. Unfortunately, it wasn't possible to get this feature as a tool to overwrite your old PP, but I think having the old version is adequate anyway. Due to this fact we renounced on adding the libs and prefs normally coming along with PP. Everyone should have it! to install, simply copy the file `PP_9.9_NoReq' into your normal PP directory. see you... Buster & Fuzz
