   1. <chat> A program which allows one to flood another {Unix}
   user's {terminal} with {garbage}, through exploiting a common
   security hole in the victim's {host}'s {talk} {daemon}.  Users
   with "messages off" (mesg n) and users on systems running
   fixed talk daemons, or not running talk daemons at all, are
