I heard of someone else who claimed that 129 was susceptable to one
of the teardrop varients, newtear specifically. I just heard about this
yesterday and haven't had a chance to retest this or test it against
teardrop or boink (the original and another varient). Consider it an
unconfirmed rumor. I will post back later if my testing turns up anything.
If anyone else has any specifics, please chime in.
