Sam,
FOAD
Registration isn't required for personal use, remember? Registration is
only supposed to be for commercial use. I thought of paying the money,
but with the experience of others to guide me I really didn't think it
would be money well spent. Even Michael has said the money doesn't come
from personal users but from commercial contracts...
Since I do run a NFP organization, I've been thinking of filling in that
form.
BUT ... you still failed to get the nitty gritty of the message, didn't
you???
The problem is with Arachne and what happens if a page isn't allowed to
"fully load" or if download is terminated for any reason. That was the
reason for the message, not complaining about the ads.
But you read what you want to read into everything anybody says, right?
Fine, but it might be better for your rep if you bothered to read what
was written so your responses didn't show up as being so off the wall.
l.d.
