That's just unkind and mean-spirited. Siteops get loads of emails asking all sorts of silly questions, but if they can't reply kindly, they should not reply at all. Particularly when the problem is with the site and not with the downloader. I still think that etree is lucky in the sense that there are people who go to great expense and effort to share music via their ftp sites. But no one should have to brown nose anyone to get a show. And no one should have a 'holier-than-thou' attitude. Peace, Jeff _______________________________________________ etree mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://mail.etree.org/mailman/listinfo/etree
