    Your log is incomplete. Use my script it is much better then HJT. After you
    run it it will place a log file in the same folder, cut and paste that log
    file here so I can see it.

    There's a lot of things you have not seen me post before. That script is
    over 3 years old and has been updated numerous times. It is open source, do
    you know what that means or do you just blabber out the first link you find.
    From the looks of it you just blabbered out the first link you found without
    doing any research. You missed about 20 or so websites that use that Open
    Source file modified to their liking. Your dumbass happened to pick the only
    one who charges for help with it. It is also used when teaching VB at many
    Universities and trade techs but since you only have a third grade education
    you wouldn't know that. It is also embedded in well over 20 main stream COTS
    programs available to anybody at your local computer store. Do your homework
    next time dip****, I baited your ass right into this post. Now **** off.

    ...52 times, according to the script itself.

    Open source? Doesn't say that anywhere in the script. Show me a real
    open source script with a copyright notice like this one has.

    Google has only a half-dozen pages with this script, all as:
    Silent Runners.vbs

    Post a few links, then.

    C'mon, let's see some proof.

    Oh yeah, you did change strRevNo = "52" to strRevNo = "70"
    for some reason, even though there are only 52 revisions noted in the
    comments.

    I'm not going to prove anything to you. I don't have to. But you might want
    to checkout your thief buddy S!R! he stole part of it and uses it in his

    Hello,

    FOA, I'll introduce myself. I'm the author of "Silent Runners.vbs".

    >... That script is... open source


    "Silent Runners.vbs" is *not* repeat *not* open source. OTOH, it is
    freeware and will remain so.

    >You missed about 20 or so websites that use that Open
    >Source file modified to their liking.


    I pursue anyone or any site that does not respect my terms of use,
    which can be found here:
    http://www.silentrunners.org/sr_termsofuse.html

    My code may NOT be stolen -- my script is duly copyrighted. The top
    ten lines of my script may NOT be altered -- that constitutes the
    attribution header which gives me credit for my work. My script may
    NOT be hosted anywhere but my site -- I retain exclusive control over
    distribution (a necessity for a script that is on its 52nd iteration).

    If you can provide any links to third party hosting, I will follow up
    on every single one and ensure they are promptly removed.

    >It is also used when teaching VB at many Universities and trade techs


    I'm happy to hear that. There are no limitations on use of my
    (unaltered) script for teaching or private use.

    >It is also embedded in well over 20 main stream COTS
    >programs available to anybody at your local computer store.


    I am unaware of any such use by any third party. Of course, the list
    of launch points is public:
    http://www.silentrunners.org/sr_launchpoints.html

    .... and those launch points may well be used by other programs. That's
    why I created the list in that format in the first place.

    IAC, it is highly unlikely that my VBS code would be incorporated into
    an executable by a programmer.

    >Do your homework next time...


    First things first.

    I ask that you cease to distribute my script under another name, that
    you cease to change the top 10 lines of my script which identifies me
    as the author, and that you cease hosting my script on your web site.

    regards, Andrew Aronoff

    Fight exposing kids to porn, complain about sites like PCBUTTS 1.COM
    that create filth and put it on the web for any kid to see: Just take a
    look at some of the FILTH he's created and put on his website:
    http://forums.speedguide.net/archive.../t-223485.html all exposed
    to children (the link I've include does not directly display his filth).
    You can find the same information by googling for 'PCBUTTS1' and
    'exposed to kids'.

    He also altered every occurrence of your URL, your string ""Silent
    Runners"", your "mailto:", and the
    strURL = "http://www.pcbutts1.com/downloads/Silent%20Runners%20RED.vbs"
    (which of course fails, because he forgot to put up his own page).

    I didn't get it from you or your website. If you want to prove to me that
    you are the original author then email me with the proof. Once I am
    satisfied I will disclose to you where I got it from, the history of how
    long I have been using it, and I will give credit where credit is due. Until
    then nothing will change.
