    Dear Thomas Sutpen,

    >> More nice will be if this .iso file is just 451,486k of /dev/random junk.
    >> Any proves that this file __IS__ Sybase Powerbuilder 9 Enterprise.iso?
    >> MD5? Something?

    The problem is much simpler, if 200 persons are sharing this ISO and if
    it is confirmed to be a "pirated" version by downloading from ONE of
    these users you can tell that the other 199 are also sharing the same
    pirated versions, knowing that most (all) p2p applications use hashes to
    identify the files. In other words, if 200 sources are listed all of
    them are sharing the exact same file, at least if you trust the p2p
    application code. (Which you can't proof does indeed work flawlessy
    in this regards, but you get my point).
