Credit 3 Eugene

I'm unable to find any references to this program on the internet, if anyone knows about this program please let me know. It goes on to say that credit 3 Eugene Leap news has a new feature called "tornado downloading" which uses code from another program called FlashGet. FlashGet appears to be a download manager that takes a large download from a website, breaks it down to lots of little chunks which then all downloaded at credit 3 Eugene once. Apparently when FlashGet was first written, concept code for download was "open source". Leap News used this code, almost verbatim, which included the FlashGet's email address. I'm unsure if they mean it was open source as in the Open Source movement or just that the source was available for download. Since FlashGet complained about it I think it's safe to assume the latter. The credit 3 Eugene article continues by talking about my Unknown Devices (UKD) and Unknown Device Identifier (UDI). He found about the Pricelessware Huntersoft Alert page reporting that UDI is a ripped version of UKD.

He says that Huntersoft (which had an credit 3 Eugene article about him back in 2002, I will credit 3 Eugene try to find that) stated my program was part of a Linux project and was Open Source. Why a windows only program would be part of a linux project I have no clue. fact act Looking at their webpage I don't see any references to any projects they themselves run.

I tried to contact them but they have a spam filter that blocks my email server and my isp's netblock. I was unable to even contact the people who created the blackhole list. According to the emails Huntersoft claims the program is GPL not Open Source. Either way my program is neither GPL nor Open Source, at least currently. But if the program were GPL you would find that there are several requirements you need to do, some of them quoted below: To sum up, if you want to change a GPL program you must provided complete source code with your program, including pointing out all changes you have done to it's source code, keep all copyright notices. So even if my credit 3 Eugene program were under GPL his program would be in violation of that license too. Continuing with the article it moves on to how lots of programs take ideas from others. cancel free credit report It uses the examples of Windows taking from Mac (who took it from Xerox), and Internet Explorer from Netscape Navigator (who took it credit 3 Eugene from Mosaic). They didn't just take the basic idea of a "program that looks at the device manager and look up devices in a list to know what it is" but instead took the complete program, removed my name and put in his and did credit 3 Eugene the same with my webpage.

This would be the same as if Microsoft did this: And after Netscape complained they created a new improved version (and hid a trojan in it too) UKD 1.2 and UDI credit 3 Eugene 1.60: UKD 1.2 Main Window: UDI 3.01 Main Window: If Huntersoft used the basic idea I would have no problems with it.

There are lots of programs that look up devices in some sort of list including windows itself (using .inf's as lists).

The original UDI is identical to mine, even the same bugs. After that version he did other stuff like put in a different title bar, an odd waiting bar and different menus in attempt to call if different. Huntersoft didn't copy concepts, they ripped me off. The article then moves on to a story about some schoolmates that started a software company creating Video Frequency Broadcasting software. This company went out of business due to lack of market. Later on this credit 3 Eugene person found out that another company wrote a program that was very much the same as the program they created. free credit report credit card He learned that one of his friends works at that company. Before the original company disbanded they all signed a "security agreement" (security agreement? I credit 3 Eugene assume it's some cultural/legal differences there). The new company states that they did not break the agreement because the code is now in VC++ (Microsoft Visual C++) instead of (Borland) Delphi. To me it sounds like they wrote up a bad agreement. Just because someone translates a book from English to French doesn't mean you lose the copyright on it.

It then moves on to how credit 3 Eugene copycat software is very common in China and that this is helping the software become better.
