I read all replies but this has not been answered. one small example: i have written a checkers program which is available for download on my webpage (www.fierz.ch/checkers.htm). i update it now and then, in irregular intervals. unfortunately, some software archives have included it not as a link but as a direct download sometime in the past. the result: some sites offer very outdated versions of my program for download, which is a nuisance, because people sometimes ask for help on something that is long fixed in newer versions. not that this is tragic, but i prefer that people just link to my site. so in that respect i can understand frank. however, i do feel he is overreacting on this whole business. cheers martin
