Code name 47,

I know you believe you are helping - but the fact is that most people who
would benefit from your help do not search the newsgroups or scan over any
old posts before they ask their questions. There are a few that probably
do - but the vast majority who do that have done a true Google search and
found web sites and posts that give them more information than your post
does and is more likely to come up in a search for their particular problem
because of wording, etc.

Apply your knowledge to solving of existing problems. You can point to the
pages you seem to be creating in that way and then your information will be
more likely to be used not only by those you help - but by those few who
search and find a term or two they decided to use in their search in the
original posters issue.

Please stop doing this. Your general information posts are not appropriate
here. These are newsgroups where people come to ask questions and get
answers. If you are not asking a question or supplying an answer to a
question, your message is spam.

My original intention was to post a link to an MS cookie article to show
that another article was probably not needed when you could find similar
info in HELP. I then noticed that the freewebs.com cookie page looked awful
familiar to what I was going to post. Spending another couple of minutes
confirmed that they were real dang similar. :-D

So "Code name 47" is not only a spammer, but a plagiarist.

That sums it up pretty well.

Here's another...

The © Copyright at the bottom of the pages has me confused.

So basically you lied in your subject header. With such a spammy
attempt to pull readers (suckers) to your site, why would anyone trust
you? Probably another trying to scare users about the professed perils
of cookies. Yeah, like I'm now going to waste time looking at your
ego-stroking site. Yeah, like no one knows about Google
(http://www.google.com/search?q=define:cookie) or Wiki
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cookie_%28computing%29).
