In days of yore I went in search of useable old PCs to make up as IPCOP boxes. One local shop gave me a couple. One of them had belonged to a married lady who, by simply looking at her E-mail programme and c: drive, was carrying out a long torrid affair with a named married man. In addition she had spent a small fortune on her card downloading porn. As a bonus find photo selection, she was a very attractive woman!!! The HDD was wiped, reformatted and the box made a very useful firewall.
