The Kids were noisy. Well, they're kids, they're inherently noisy.
But they supposed to be sleeping.
On a hunch, I logged into the firewall system (an old 486 running Linux) and ran monnet, a network monitor I wrote a few years ago as an educational exercise and sure enough, there was quite a bit of traffic from The Kids' computer upstairs.
Sure enough, they were playing Rune Scape [1].
