And that would be extremely safe, wouldn't it? Suppose this is done now. I want to get a file from some ftp site that checks my address. It says I can't get it. What do you think I do if I really want it? Just stop there? Nope. I write to some friend of mine in America. Saying "Hi. I've tried to copy this program, but I can't get it. Can you sent it to me?" Some moralist may say it's breaking the law, but so is speeding, and people do it all the time. Besides speeding can cause the death of people. Copying this program can, at most, give some paper moving desk chauffeur a red face. > >-- > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- >| Randy Spangler | The less things change, the | >| rspangle@jarthur.claremont.edu | more they remain the same | > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- _ /Bjorn.
