Live links ?
no posting of keys ?
hex files ?
embedded files ?
emulators?
receiver images ?
Not trying to keep You busy ;-) but it would be very helpful If these terms were explained here,or elaborated on in the rules thread.

A live link-
http://www.satellites.co.uk (this one allowed actually as it is to this site)
A de-activated link- _http://www.bbc.co.uk
keys- Strings of Hexadecimal numbers used to decrypt satellite channels, often in the form XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX where the X are alphanumeric characters between 0 and F.
Keys are also sometimes expressed in their decimal equivalent i.e XXX XXX XXX XXX XXX XXX XXX XXX XXX XXX XXX XXX XXX XXX XXX XXX
with each XXX representing a number between 0 and 255. NB Any attempt at trying to re-represent or disguise keys hoping that we won't notice them is severely frowned upon.
Hex files- Any binary files really, that are not human readable, as keys could be embedded.
Emulators- Software to emulate the decryption algorithms in a satellite receiver.
Receiver image- Same as receiver software, however in the world of UNIX and its derivatives it is known as an image.
