[Pro2006] Cable for Trunker / Probe

Mon, 21 Oct 2002 11:58:21 -0400

I never wanted him to stop, its good people like him provide the info, the
problem was why is there a problems with his web page?

It was always said that there was nothing special about it yet netscape just
never worked with it, right clicks never worked with it, well that is special
code in there to stop the right clicks so that is something special about the
pages.
Now we find out that people were linking to his page which he does not want
so he has put code in the page to stop it, so now we have something else
special about it, and that's why he does not post a direct link to his page
with the info because he does not want people to see the info he posts but to
have  a look at everything on his page.

I would still like to know what was changed after I said that the page loads,
I could see the background load first on the left side menus and then the
main part of the page and just as the menus of the left start to load both
sides of the page would go to the earthlink page not found screen, after I
said that and he replied, something changed as the page would now completely
load.
