>>>>>[Nightstalker, I don't think Howe could cut his access. From what I
can tell about RUFUS, he doesn't exist in one computer, per se. The
entire matrix is his home. I don't know how RUFUS is able to store
himself, perhaps by stealing a few bytes among all computers connected to
the matrix, but Howe can't just walk in and turn him off, because RUFUS is
no longer in Howe's computer. He is free. That is why Howe wants him.

Oh, Dark Elf, to answer your question. I was sitting in Haven last night
in and walked a Yoshida Tech icon. He asked me if I had seen any "really
fast deckers". I said no and then shot him in the back as he walked away.
So the score is now up to three.

Also, I noticed a difference among Yoshida corp icons. Normal icons have
a navy blue hat. But all of the icons that have been searching for RUFUS
have a red hat. Open season on red-hatters, I would say.]<<<<<
