DON'T try this.  This is a JOKE! (verry funny, asshole!)  What happens is that 
you end up back on your home system.  127.0.0.1 is a loopback port for Unix 
systems.  It is used to test networking hardware.

gunnarh must think pulling this little joke is funny.  It's not.  Do yourself 
a favor and ignore any more worthless advise this shithead might give out, as 
he has proven himself to be untrustwothy.

gunnarh, why don't you het a life and stop trying to fuck up the newbies?
