a small explanation of what happened:
i sent all of the balance from my blockchain.info wallet to my electrum wallet. problem is i did the custom send with a fee of .001 of course the blockchain.info software being the halfbaked wonder it is never confirmed the tx. so i did what any nervous bitcoiner does. i dl'd the qt and the blockchain and imported my adddresses from electrum and from blockchain.info, and removed the unconfirmed transaction with pyWallet. i guess now everytime i send a transaction blockchain.info will recognize it as a double spend. IMO, the flaws of this online webwallet is a disservice to the community. as it can make a necessary doublespend out to be a malicious doublespend. if only they would have made it possible to destroy unconfirmed tx's from your wallet.dat, none of this would be a problem.

After defrauding myself out of .0165 bitcoins via a doublespend, i would like to nominate myself for a scam tag. being the honest man i am, i would like to apologize to myself in advance, forgive myself in the present tense, and learn from my mistakes in the future. you can read all about the transaction here
