 Gee, Steve... I didn't expect this sort of comment from you. Perhaps it 
 wouldn't be so humorous if it had happened to you. I made modifications to
 /bin/login for the exact reason this person did. My only mistake was in who
 I alledgedly gave it to. 

 The modifications to /bin/login were trivial to make. But, lest you invite
 the Secret Service upon you, make sure you have authorization from the
 people who own the system before installing it.
