I was not promoting my friend's software to the list. I was asking members to download & then throw away the software - the tool has a very narrow user base, me and possibly one or two on this list.

Also, if you want to get technical about promoting I see plenty of posts about "so and so sells XXX" or "don't forget those who support this list" when parts questions come up.

So, can we agree to disagree?

Thanks, Tom Hargrave
