Default VM issues new SMART CARD, why? They did say that...

hi

Why is VM issuing a new smart cards? are they trying to stop illegal boxes from working on their network?

someone told me that on one of their security channels, they said this:

"if you are using an illegal box to watch premium channels, you will not be able to this soon" or something like that.

what procedures are they carrying out?? i'm sure that they cant stop these boxes from receiving these channels...

There is no possible way you could even skim through the cable section without hitting about 300 threads on this..............

Will make a good paperweight - there's feck-all else you'll be able to do with it! As others have said (many times, if you cared to read more posts than you want to admit to) enjoy it while we got it and mourn its passing when it goes.
