I bet he's under investigation, but maybe we should all rip apart our laptops and see if there's any keylogger dongle in there. Nice hardware hack...very clean work. Likely not DHS fools but NSA pros. Keyloggers (USB, PS/2) are pretty cheap and offer one of the easiest ways to snarf passwords if you have physical access to the machine. Then again, you can also just take the machine...which also gives you a few other things.
[I'm not suggesting this, just offering food for thought to help make everyone completely paranoid.]
What we need is an Enema of the State.
Oh yeah...be very careful with other files on this server. Some are browser hacks and will freeze both Explorer and Firefox (Javascript loops and such). Don't say I didn't warn you! [CONTROL-ALT-DELETE and kill process if necessary.]

I knew this didn't sound right: "to replace a broken PCMCIA slot riser on the motherboard."
