Of all the solutions I've seen so far, I surprised no one has suggested
a peltier cooler.  While I'll admit installing one on an Athlon/Duron
can be tricky, it's sometimes the only way to keep the processors below
45C in adverse conditions.  (This comes from experience with the Cyrix
6x86 desktop hibachi series.)

The following code is a PERL script capable of decoding a CSS (Content
Scrambling System) encrypted DVD in real time.  This is illegal to
possess in the US according to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, a
set of laws passed by anonymous vote in congress in 1998.  The Motion
Picture Association of America (MPAA) is opposed to the distribution of
this software because it allows the owners of CSS encrypted DVDs to
exercise their long-standing fair use rights with new digital
technologies.  For more information, please visit:
