Source Code Club: Selling Dragon IDS and Napster Software on Usenet

An online group claiming to have the source code for two popular computer programs for sale opened its doors for business again on Saturday. An e-mail message that claims to come from "larry hobbles" and the Source Code Club was sent to the Full-Disclosure security discussion list. The message said that the group has moved operations to Usenet, the network of online bulletin boards that makes up part of the Internet, where interested customers can buy the source code for the Dragon intrusion detection system (IDS) software from Enterasys Networks Inc. and peer-to-peer server and client software from Napster LLC, now owned by Roxio Inc. . . .. An online group claiming to have the source code for two popular computer programs for sale opened its doors for business again on Saturday. An e-mail message that claims to come from "larry hobbles" and the Source Code Club was sent to the Full-Disclosure security discussion list. The message said that the group has moved operations to Usenet, the network of online bulletin boards that makes up part of the Internet, where interested customers can buy the source code for the Dragon intrusion detection system (IDS) software from Enterasys Networks Inc. and peer-to-peer server and client software from Napster LLC, now owned by Roxio Inc. The club made headlines last week after posting messages to online discussion groups that advertised a Web site selling the source code and design documents for Dragon and Napster. By Thursday, the group's Web page displayed a message saying the club had ceased operations due to "fears our customers faced." A subsequent "newsletter" from the club dated July 17 and posted to the Usenet group alt.gap.international.sales at 10:28 PM Pacific Standard Time called Usenet the "official home" of the Source Code Club and said the informal network was "better suited" to the club and would give potential customers two ways to contact club members: through a club e-mail address and through messages posted in the Usenet group.
