    I'm not finding much in support of your comments sir. You still can't be
    bothered to answer my questions regarding my program. I suspect you are a
    total waste of various individuals time and effort.

    Of course not, since I won't suggest any solution to a not even particularly
    solvable problem (bringing a complex system of unknown state back to a
    well-defined state without having any backups).

    > You still can't be bothered to answer my questions regarding my program.



    Since there's anything to say that I haven't already said. I tested the
    mentioned program and found various false positives. Period.

    Aha. Would you mind posting the BUGHUNT.LOG file in this case? I'd like
    to clear up any false positive issues regarding it.

    Actually, I take issue..

    At what point did your testing determine that BugHunter gives a rats ass
    about cookies or registry keys? The problem I seem to have is that you
    claimed not to have tested the program in one post, and when I posted
    that you seem to have implied you in fact did test it, you respond with
    this nonsense.

    Okay, I'll play along.. what the hell. Which false positives is it you
    feel you found? And why have you felt the need to remain silent about
    them when originally asked if you'd taken a look at the program?

    And I'm especially interested in the cookie comment you made. As
    BugHunter has no interest in cookies or registry entries or favorites
    links, as you seem to have implied it did...

    Here's your original comments, if you have forgotten them:

    <Xns99E167D02A64HHI2948AJD832@69.28.186.121>

    You didn't respond to that post either, You wouldn't mind doing so now
    would you? thanks.
