I have admitted more than once that maybe I should have posted a warning because I do not want anybody to be hurt. However, I also say that as the rules are strange and the border lines are very diffuse to me I may blunder again. As in this case it may simply not cross my mind. What I probably should do is to be inspired by some US stile warnings in my signature, with a general warning against following any link on the Internet .-) Another thing is that the responses, and some of the partially hidden accusations from Tom C and William R, does not really make me want to help them protect themselves...
