I have no idea what you are referring to. You have contacted a group
which creates software for creating web pages. This software is in use on
some 11 million domains around the world and anybody can download it free
and use it for whatever they want. Chances are you have run across a site
that uses our software on their web site and you are transferring the
blame for their actions back to us. We really can't do anything about how
people use our software anymore than the power company is responsible for
what people do with the power they provide them.
