It isn't like I'm giving away the kickit/kick... or 2.04 programs themselves. Does mentioning that kickit exists, or describing a bug in 2.04 in ANY way infringe on CBM's competitiveness? Perhaps in the wording of the contract they are unacceptable to mention the existence of, but at least from my perspective they have been mentioned by so many other people that it is a moot point, and the agreement is invalid at that point anyway. Actually, I'm not even supposed to say when I'm allowed to say things. 8-) >--- > Opinions expressed in this message are my Own.
