A link I picked up off Bassman's personal space - I think I'd heard of it somewhere before, but the first time I've seen it. This link should show you my personal space translated into cockney...

In summary: two ex-digibox users who now have PCs decided that they didn't like certain sections of their old community and reported back to their digibox supplier, Telewest, that there was a hack that enabled digibox users to access certain parts of the internet (ie h2g2) that were not, shall we say, entirely within the the realms that Telewest had set out as being accessible by their users.
As a result, the loophole has been blocked; BBC New Media team ain't entirely happy about how things have turned out; and two (now) PC using researchers are not entirely flavour of the month
