Please show in any of those reports, where BugHunter itself has been
identified as malicious in any way shape or form. Or shall I forward this
tidbit of yours to my lawyer for his opinion? Play the same game as
pcbutts tried gerry, if you wish. You make getting you in a court room
much easier tho. I've saved these malicious attacks you've made on my
legitimate software.

What will you try next?

Again, You haven't proven in any respect that BugHunter is malicious, but
you have implied as such, and legally, that's not a smart move on your
part, Gerry.
