Are you telling me that I should not fill my pipe with duplicate Acks, as that would be "fraud"?
No. I'm saying that if you generate spurious traffic with the *INTENT* of creating a revenue stream to you then you are probably committing fraud. If the duplicate acks are created by a program that serves no other useful purpose then it would be just as fraudluent as if you were to set up a 900 number, don a bicycle messenger's outfit, and visit downtown offices asking to use the phone for a momemnt and then calling your 900 number. -- Michael Dillon - Internet & ISP Consulting Memra Communications Inc. - E-mail: michael () memra com Check the website for my Internet World articles - http://www.memra.com
