Yes guys and gals, let's be very cautious here.  First of all please don't
reply to "all" and continue to cc in the Potterwoman; I meant to blind
copy her in the first place to avoid that very situation.

And there are a LOT of reasons that the IP I provided won't be him, 
especially at this point with no static IP's at @home.

That said - I am encouraged that the IP definitely points to NJ, where
delivery took place - if he were going the zombie route, you'd kinda
expect the invaded PC to be in Paraguay or someplace crazy.

For now why not let me get @home on the trail and do this "correctly"?  I
do really appreciate everyone's eager desire to assist and see that this
JAMF is dealt with.  What he's done is illegal, let's not resort to 
breaking the law to catch him and/or get even.. especially not 
discussing it in a public forum with an audit trail!
