MSN China made the same move, although it didn't go as far as publishing the list on its homepage. The correct response from Yahoo or MSN (or anyone else) when asked for cooperation in this endeavor is, of course, "pound sand". What a pity that these corporations lack the courage to give it. ---Rsk ------------------------------------------- Archives: http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/247/=now RSS Feed: http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/247/ Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
