Aye, and I'm not responsible for what works for me and my OS, ISP, etc.,
but wont work on yours.

What I WOULD do is get your facts straight before you go pointing fingers.
I actually needed the files too, and they worked fine for me. And it's not
my job to make _sure_ you can use it, because what worked for me may not
work for you. The least it would do is get people off their a$# and use
the free utility called a search engine to find it themseves.

I think it would be a great idea. People might actually start giveing
credit where credit is due.

I would say make it hard coded, so then the credits could be included in
the patch file. Then it would be automatically patched in for those really
lazy people that patch everything.
