JG> Is there any kind of case history on this yet? dunno how deep you mined here, but ebay shut down several hobby sites that mined auctions info about their collectables. ebay still had the auction but those sites has search engines which had data from ebay. dunno why they did this as it generated ebay users but they seem to want to keep their data private. now as to linking to a site, i don't think they can stop that. but i haven't heard of any legal cases about it. you could contact them and offer to sell the software to them. uri -- Uri Guttman --------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------- http://www.sysarch.com SYStems ARCHitecture and Stem Development ------ http://www.stemsystems.com Search or Offer Perl Jobs -------------------------- http://jobs.perl.org
