Jack, Ask your man "fur" about this kind of software. He is an expert in it. He wrote the code for this forum's "freestuf" section which bypasses such protection on other servers. This allows people to store their freestuff files on services such as Geocities and Xoom which prohibit using their servers in such a manner. If he knows how to break it, he should know how to write it so it's harder to break. Ciao! Joe
