The continuing joys of transact

I used to find it amusing to login to ftp.dynamite.com.au and they'd have
all their subscription figures for the last week just sitting there. I
recall they fixed it after a year or two (I didn't tell them; they might
have accused me of cracking or something equally ridiculous).

I thought the 'commercial in confidence' header/footer was most amusing.

Yeah, it surprised me too, but he was probably exaggerating a little.
It probably seemed to them they were getting yelled at by "hundreds"
of people.

Commercially classified most likely.
