I beg your pardon ?? What planet are you from ??
I think that those that put adds on the pages are the bad guys, they
STEAL my bandwith and MY money form the extra connection time it takes to
download, so it should be under AATT ('Automated Anti Theft Tool!)
I welcome this exiting new piece of very usefull software, and its going
to be installed here as soon as I get the time to do it.
I'm pretty sure this will be a hit amongst alot of our users...
In fact I think that alot of ISP's will take this as a gift
from heaven :)
