Ha ha, good advice. I've explained these better on jfwlite at yahoogroups.com, jfwlist at yahoogroups.com, blindtech at yahoogroups.com, even though I know that some guys from Freedom Scientific monitor these lists. They should prove first that I use a fake key. If I don't use one, I can tell to anyone I know how it can be copied. I tell this to the people, not because I support the piracy, but because I am sure they want to create a simple backup for their jaws auth disk. A floppy can be damaged, and it will cost to ask another one from Freedom Scientific. So discussing is not illegal. Even in USA, I think.

Hey guys, I've been following this thread about the disk copying and stuff. I was wondering if you were aware that the archive for this list is accessible to anyone on the whole web? This means that all you are writing about is out there for the picking unless Kirk decides to remove it from the archive before google or any other search engine gets a cache of that archive.
