Why on earth did you have to post this 278 lines message containing a single line of rubbish?
I'm paying for the internet connection not only on the monthly basis but by the downloaded megabytes (and I have to pay a LOT for them!).
There was not a single note in the subject line so I could ignore it and I paid 0.3 cents for this rubbish. I usually consider everyone's opinion important, so I read them! I'm sad that I had to read that stuff :(

Please consider that there are people who PAY for the AMOUNT of downloaded data!

Thank you in advance,

I can list much more which are missing from the OP but in the registry.
It is a common method to insert fake objects to the registry for an easy future updates without registry reload.
TechnoZeus' new help files doesn't contain them (properly), so you shouldn't refer/use them.

I don't want to go into details about the poster's garbage.

One comment based on visiting his server:

" Access to this site is limited to patron world owner use & their respective builders solely.
Licensed use only.
This site is protected by the Laws of the United States of Americans an/or it's Treaties with foreign Nations.
Violators and/or trespassers will be prosecuted.
This is not a public access html web site.

I guess the web site owner doesn't know what is the internet:)
If a page accessible by a regular browser from the net - it is not restricted and anyone allowed to access it!
If he wants to make the website PRIVATE then use the common protection technique. This silly note means nothing:) Everything on this site is public domain since it is not protected from the general public!

I'm entered to this server by mistake but I won't obey to the "Leave immediately" order, since it is a public server. What is more - I made a full copy of this server on my machine:) - (geat stuff indeed!)

As you all probably know Storage world holds it's annual Christmas (and Easter) hunt regularly. It was always a big hit and the hunters enjoyed it a lot. The hunt generated more builders later and provided some publicity to our world :)
I had an idea for this Christmas: Why not hold a multiple world gift hunt? I.e. anyone can hunt in any participating world and the scores are accumulated from all the worlds. It means we can wonder around in several worlds, explore them and have fun together.
We (Storage) will offer some prize donations, AWI promised some too. It is up to you if you donate some prizes of course. (I can give free hosting for any donated world too.)
It means we won't compete but have a real BIG fun together:) The hunt usually lasts for 36 hours, so every continent can enjoy it.

I have the bot ready to cover multiple worlds. Each world can hide their own gifts. The bot can cover 400x400 or larger areas depending on the world's need. I can provide more details later if you are interested.

What do you think?

Excuse me - that IS the official NG Charter for the community group.
She simply reposted it which is a good idea to do it frequently especially for users who doesn't read the older posts <hint hint>.

Of course it would be a good idea to have a simple NAT router between the computer and the broadband connection which does an excellent job to prevent such messages reaching your computer (Linksys, DLink, SMC, etc...).

I really wonder how can AWI repassword your objects on an independent HTTP server?
When the sh*t first hit the fan, I modified my multizip tool <http://www.andras.net/tools.html#multizip> to repassword the objects. I just added an additional feature to repassword only the already-protected files (thanks to XelaG for the idea and the testing).
It can do the repasswording all at once but only YOU have the way to access your OP host :)

For one - you are not allowed to post at all :)
The news server blipped and it is nothing to do with AWI.
