Hey Guys,

Rcently I've also been using BT2 to surf the internet a bit. I noticed that Firefox has the Tor extension pre-installed but that the Tor software package isn't. So I thought let's...

this story really sounds a bit far fetched.
why dont you get a search warrant and search the building. apparently you are spending massive amounts of time on one laptop theft anyway..

thanks. I cracked the code by the way... turned out be 64 bit after all! hahah
