I'm not sure whether I should be thankful for making me aware of it or angry at you for shattering my illusion of security. :) Scary. A quick search found this video that at the end show exactly what a 'Bump Key' is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQjADSCFt3M&search=bump%20key Also, thank you very much for the review of Launchy. I haven't used it more than twice yet but it still give me goose bumps. This is one of those tools I didn't know I was missing until I tried it! Now when I'm all worked up over a new tool I probably won't be able to live without... Here's one that I really don't want to live without: Enhanced Virtual Desktops (http://www.hexagora.com/en_dw_evd.asp). EVD help me keep different work areas for the 15+ different applications I have open every day supporting our customers. Ouch, now that’s what I call a security disclosure… I’m not sure whether I should be thankful for making me aware of it or angry at you for shattering my illusion of security. :) Scary.

First 4 letters of last name, First 3 letters of first name, and the two digits of thier graduation year "06". How would you modify your vb script to do this username? BTW: Great Podcast!
