A friend told me that Motorola had left a message for hackers in some of their RSS. Try this and let me know what you find. Edit Spectra ver. 6.05.00 Spectra1.exe file with Hex Workshop. Go to offset45590 for your message.

I checked it out. Motorola has a sense of humor sometimes.

Stupid Motorola. That looks bad in a piece of $300.00 software. I guess that is their intellectual property.

With there prices! (plus the price increase) they can't afford a sense of humor...

The message should read
"HACKERS BLOW BIG ONES"
It has been around along time, what Motorola did not realize is when you need to altr the checksum after hacking, they give you a place to alter.

Not having the software, what does the message really say?
