If you want to see truly heinous version jacking, check out what Google have perpetrated with Chrome. The thing isn't even out of beta and its already past version 4. That's F O U R. Explain that one. IMHO they're attempting to catch up with Safari's version number and surpass FireFox's version number. The last time I saw version jacking this bad was Microsoft Internet Explorer. Windows version jacking also comes to mind. Evil. But I rant...
