	Problems with Kontiki/Sky By Broadband make Slashdot
	The problems with the peer-to-peer nastiness that is Sky By Broadband have made the front page of Slashdot. The Slashdot article itself doesn't have any new stuff, and it seems to be more annoyed at Sky not making it clear it's a Peer 2 Peer app than it is about the lack of an uninstall capability. Personally, I still think the worst aspect of Sky By Broadband is that people who believe they've uninstalled it are still running the P2P service and sharing their bandwidth. Oh, and the uninstall instructions in the article Slashdot references don't include the regsvr32 -u that's in Nick's instructions, and you probably do want to do that just to be clean.
