All
There have been a few posts where people are asking the list for licensed
software and some people taking a public risk by making arrangements to
send it.
I hope we can avoid legal issues that can be caused by such activity and
have attached copy of the license agreement that everyone must agree to
before downloading code, any code, off of TotalService.
