Looks like the TRADEX scammers are at it again. For those who don't
know, a San Francisco company called TRADEX was advertising a dongle
breaker for $100 in S&C magazine. Turns out it was nothing but a bootleg
copy of Safesoft. You even got to see the idiot's name splash across
your screen at boot time. ***DO NOT*** give these people any money.
Jimo, please axe these guys soonest.
