OHHH NO!! 
another bozo !!! this thread has been beat to death in .action.
in any case, The underground Nazi rule is that a program is truely a 
nazi prg. if one can find in Ascii the codes for "Zieg Heil" 10 times

If the string is not there, then the prg. is not registered with the local
KKK org.
