I cannot remember where I saw it (probably steakandcheese.com) but someone
had made a screen shot that included:

1. a visual basic project development of a number of simple 'for' loops that
generated every IP address ( 0.0.0.0 -> 255.255.255.255 ) you could
get and dump the results to a file

2. the text file copied to his P2P share directory

3. his favourite P2P software running

4. _six_ people actually downloading the list of the ip addresses, the file
was called something like 'all the ip addresses on the internet.txt'

Cheers
