Is this legal?

Don't ever post malicious code on this forum again.

My malicious code:

VictimName.s = "Joakim Christiansen"
BodyPart.s = "Wrist"
SmackBodyPart(VictimName,BodyPart)

You didn't create the macro first... that procedure isn't gonna run! It may limp badly, but it isn't gonna run!

Run this for a while (using threadsafe) and they will probably shut down (I think they already have, lol, one laptop did the job)

The All Basic site was hit today for a short period with a DOS attack.

This is a non-profit Basic community built site. It would suck if anyone used your posted code to test on All Basic.

@John: You don't know that, so don't spread accusations without proof.

I saw the original code and it didn't attack any Basic-related web site, and
nobody here would do that to your site. Your comment does nothing but
create unwarranted friction in the Basic community.

Maybe Fred should at least send them a DCMA take down notice, to the hosting service, if its not legal.
