Re: [dvd-discuss] The power of a click

Is it true that DeCSS can be launched with  a single click.
Is there a DeCSS icon?  Was there a DeCSS icon for the
program that 2600 published on its web site?

The claim by the 2d Circuit that there is such an ability and
such an icon is not consistent with the facts (including the
facts as found by Judge Kaplan).  It also appears to be essential
to the panel's holding.

That seems to me to be a pretty good basis for seeking a rehearing.
