I don't let them bother me anymore. This has been tossed around since Poser 5 came out, so about 2 years. The one's that are doing it, are not going to stop. I know who they are :)), so I just don't buy from them. It's really easy, and saves me money. They can come up with any reason they want for why they do it, I refuse to get involved in any more pi**ing contests. It's their product, they can do what they want with it, keep it for all I care.
