Is that normally pronounced "Ick Ack Uck"?


Yes, and the Department of Computing is doc.ic.ac.uk, "Dock Ick Ack
Uck". DoC also once had a server called hock.doc.ic.ac.uk, hence "Hock
Dock Ick Ack Uck".


I believe at one point the Computing departmental society (DoCSoc) had an
email address of Dock Sock at Dock Ick Ack Uck.
