Let me first acknowledge that I recognize that your intentions appear to be generous and helpful. However, your method of posting the information does not conform to rules that this Forum must abide with. Kazzoo took good action and provided good recommendations about citing the original source of information you may wish to excerpt and/or refer to when posting in a Forum. I must take further steps based on "fair use" of copyright information. Therefore, I've removed the entire text that you posted. Here's a thumbnail description of how to use and cite information you may wish to quote: QUOTE Copyright law provides for taking an excerpt, as long as the link to the source is included. How long is an excerpt? It depends on the length of the article, but generally 2-4 paragraphs. In the case of a list of 10 items, only one or two should be excerpted, the rest linked. In the event that you wish to restore some "excerpts" of the article to convey the useful points, along with appropriate link to cite the original authorship, you may contact me via PM or post into the existing thread with a revised posting. Best Regards, Doug ”(I moved the topic to a more appropriate forum, not a Windows problem, but a discussion of Best practices-Kazzoo) This post has been edited by Doug: Apr 22 2008, 02:22 PM |

Greetings Tom Herry
Friendly suggestion, Good information, but...... If you are going to post what appears to be information gathered from sources from the internet, Please put links to where it came from. This will not only give a point for the reader to investigate further, it will give credit to the original creator of the information. Best Regards Kaz.
