[21:31:53] <Akhil> counter strike
As you can see, he got the hang of this DC++ lark quite quickly, following that later with
[21:52:32] <Akhil> cs++
And then we get the 'excuse'
[21:52:48] <Akhil> i was wondering how to play cs with uni players
...
[21:56:37] <Akhil> but i need 2 download it first frm dc++
[21:56:40] <Akhil> and its not there

Be afraid, for ITS are coming to get you
[22:11:14] <Amtrrrrrrr> ohh right ok. so i have to be careful how is uploading from me as well
[22:11:31] <astropoint> for the most part, only on campus people will be able to connect
[22:11:36] <astropoint> but conenctions have been known to slip through
[22:11:45] <astropoint> the best thing you can do is block them using your firewall
[22:11:51] <Amtrrrrrrr> ok, so how are you connected now?
[22:12:01] <astropoint> this is jsut a pm window
[22:12:21] <Amtrrrrrrr> pm?
