Without knowing more about the service you provide, where the notice came from, and with much of the content <<removed>> it's pretty hard to tell if it meets the requirements of a DMCA notice or not. If it does meet the requirements of a DMCA notice follow the procedure - it's spelled out pretty well. It becomes something of a gray area if you are dealing with a dialup user running servers since you do not have control of the server. Mark Radabaugh Amplex (419) 720-3635
