In the year 2000, there was a wide outbreak of the QAZ virus/trojan. The trojan leaves allows remote control TCP port 7597. Rumor has it that a Microsoft engineer disklike the performance cost of running anti-virus and disabled it. The engineer then got infected with QAZ. Somebody trolling on the Internet found the open port, remotely controlled the machine, and used it to log back into Microsoft and was able to steal some source code. From Hacking-Lexicon

A PE2-like text full-screen color text editor qe is a PE2-like full-screen color text editor. It's called "qe" because the letter "Q" comes after "P", so hopefully QE will exceed PE2! Like PE2 on DOS, QE is a great editor for both English and Chinese (Big5 or GB) text. Features include: * Optional Big5/GB Chinese interface. * User-definable macros and keyboard settings.

Calculate convex hulls and related structures These executables use a practical convex hull algorithm that combines the two-dimensional Quickhull Algorithm with the general dimension Beneath-Beyond Algorithm. This algorithm is robust against floating point errors, often a problem for less sophisticated computational geometry algorithms. There are also programs that perform related computations, such as Delaunay triangulation. From Debian 3.0r0 APT

At about that time, a new GUI library was released. It was called Qt and was developed by Troll Tech. It was not free, but it was an outstanding technical accomplishment in that it worked efficiently and cleanly on many different platforms. It was shunned by some factions of the Free software community because it was written in C++, [Which is not considered to be the standard development language by the Free Software Foundation because it is not completely portable and possibly for other reasons.]and was only free for noncommercial applications to link with. Nevertheless, advocates of Qt went ahead and began producing the outstanding KDE desktop project--a set of higher-level development libraries, a window manager, and many core applications that together make up the KDE Desktop. The licensing issues with Qt have relaxed somewhat, and it is now available under both the GPL and a proprietary license. From Rute-Users-Guide

transparent load balancing system GNU Queue is a load-balancing system that lets users control their remote jobs in an intuitive, transparent and nearly seamless way. This is done with local shell job control and signaling and with Queue's innovative proxy daemon mechanism. Queue can be used as a local replacement for rsh to hosts within a homogeneous cluster under single administrative control. Queue also supports the more traditional email-based load-balancing and distributed batch-processing facilities using a number of criteria to decide where to send jobs. From Debian 3.0r0 APT

A simple GTK app for making lists of things QuickList allows novice and experienced users to keep track of "things" without any help from a system administrator. "Things" can be anything, including (but certainly not limited to!) bug lists, phone lists, restaurants, team members, calendars, cool urls, checkbooks, fishing holes, CDs, bunjee jumping cool sites, etc. It is completely flexible. QuickList lists "things" in column format, much as they would appear in a spreadsheet. Quicklist can sort lists of "things," search from them and generate printable reports from them. The native (.qlf) file format is non-relational, non-SQL. Comma and tab delimited files can be imported and exported. In addition, html can be exported for publishing to the World Wide Web. If you liked the Appleworks or Microsoft Works databases, you will like QuickList. From Debian 3.0r0 APT

Compares a Packages files and a Sources file This is a program to compare a Packages files and a Sources file to see which programs need (re)compiling for any given architecture. Quinn diff knows about architecture specific packages (e.g. lilo) and can easily exclude them via a Packages-arch-specific file. The output is a list of source packages complete with accurate section and version information, suitable for use in build daemons or just in a script to auto-snarf the necessary source.
