Stop All Wine Apps and Processes
kills all wine running apps and processes. Make a hotkey for it when running wine games in fullscreen and it locks. This is a great way to escape from it.

Get Cookies from bash
The loop is to compare cookies. You can remove it... Maybe you wanna use curl... $ curl www.commandlinefu.com/index.php -s0 -I | grep "Set-Cookie"

Start dd and show progress every X seconds

find and replace tabs for spaces within files recursively

Anti DDOS
Takes IP from web logs and pipes to iptables, use grep to white list IPs.. use if a particular file is getting requested by many different addresses. Sure, its already down pipe and you bandwidth may suffer but that isnt the concern. This one liner saved me from all the traffic hitting the server a second time, reconfigure your system so your system will work like blog-post-1.php or the similar so legitimate users can continue working while the botnet kills itself.

Block known dirty hosts from reaching your machine
Blacklisted is a compiled list of all known dirty hosts (botnets, spammers, bruteforcers, etc.) which is updated on an hourly basis. This command will get the list and create the rules for you, if you want them automatically blocked, append |sh to the end of the command line. It's a more practical solution to block all and allow in specifics however, there are many who don't or can't do this which is where this script will come in handy. For those using ipfw, a quick fix would be {print "add deny ip from "$1" to any}. Posted in the sample output are the top two entries. Be advised the blacklisted file itself filters out RFC1918 addresses (10.x.x.x, 172.16-31.x.x, 192.168.x.x) however, it is advisable you check/parse the list before you implement the rules
