Other than looking at the the communication protocol in the firmware I really don't see a need to have it or modify it. There would really be no reason to lock down the micro as there are no BE100 asics out there to build a clone with. I would almost bet the fuses are left intact. I can't get my programmer to play nice with windows 8 atm anyway so I'm not going to bother. I can confirm that the pinouts are correct as was posted, as my programmer does recognise the attiny but I'm having driver issues with the pc.
