I am proud to say that I am neither rude nor sarcastic, even though I only have posted a few comments on this board, I have been around for a very long time (here and elsewhere). Common forum etiquette dictates that you ask your question, you get an answer and then move on with your life. If you are not happy with the answer, you simply reply or rebut as you have done here. You do not however, keep creating new threads with essentially the same question... merely rephrased.
I am not trying to turn this into a debate, I am far too busy for that. I am only trying to help you to understand that there are proper ways to act, and improper as well ... your PM to me was completely improper as was your calling me childish and rude.
Simply put, before posting something to a forum, do your homework. I will provide you with my reference points I spoke of earlier, visit here and go down to the third bullet-point, when you are done reading that bullet-point, move down a little to the eighth bullet-point. While I encourage you to read all of the points listed, these two points will tell you where you have NOT followed proper forum etiquette.
This is not "absolute drivel" as you stated in your PM to me, this is an attempt to educate those who only wish to break existing rules and niceties of everyday web life.
Thank you and have a good night.

Who the hell do you think you are, are you some sort of teacher? well I am certainly not your pupil, so please mind your own business regarding how I deal with Netiquette, if you have an answer to any of my posts then fine, but please do not act like you are any better than me as you obviously think you are, NOT
I may have asked the question a few times, fair enough, but that does not give you the right to take me down like this, after all, has anyone died? NO, so it could be that it is you that should move on and get on with your life, and stop putting your nose into other peoples business.
If I wanted help with netiquette I would have posted elsewhere.
It may be a good idea if you looked into other forums concering Netiquette, then you could possibly do well in there, but this forum is to do with Spybot!
You must be one of those people that does absolutely everything by the book, there is nothing wrong with that, but please don't push your way of life down my throat, we all have our own ways of doing things, and in any case the original post that you replied to if you read your reply what on earth was it intented for, it could only have been for to make me feel stupid, so have a think to yourself mate before you slate other people!
I have now personally blocked you, so please do not waste your time replying, because as you say you are far too busy.
End of matter.
Peace people. :

See this is nice, we can chat civilly, no name calling, no undercutting each other's thoughts. There is no reason for us to be enemies, there are enough bad people out there trying to harm all of us, we don't need to harm each other.
Very true mate, lets get together and help each other and others too.
Sorry for the earlier nasties as I am sure you are too.
very true, pwillener. good thing that Spybot 1.5 does work under Vista, unlike Lavasoft's new Ad-Aware 2007 software which crashes under Vista. Looks like they forgot to make their latest software compatible with Vista and they do admit that Ad-Aware 2007 is incompatible with Vista.
thumbs down for lavasoft
anyway, I'll beta test this Spybot 1.5 beta on my mom's Vista laptop today
