| | | We are trying to allow everyone to use peeron, so we have removed the blocks for the t-online and the wanadoo users. We still have to pay for bandwidth though, so please, don't abuse our trust. We will block any user caught slurping, to avoid having (...) (23 years ago, 28-Feb-02, to lugnet.db.inv) !!

|
| | | | | I'm not quite as computer literate as everyone here on LUGNET, so I have to ask, what is "slurping"? I've never even heard of that term before. For all I know, I could've been "slurping" every time I visited Peeron and not even known it. I don't (...) (23 years ago, 1-Mar-02, to lugnet.db.inv)

| | | | | | (...) sorry - didn't mean to get technical :) "Slurping" is using a program to copy the whole site to your local computer. It's usually done with special programs, though I think you can get the same effect by using a "Saveing for offline viewing" (...) (23 years ago, 1-Mar-02, to lugnet.db.inv)

| | | | | | Dan, If slurping is using a program to download a whole entire site, then I'm quite safe in saying that I won't, can't and probably never will be able to do that. (I'm a pathetic dial-up user, so it would take me eons, even if I knew how.) Something (...) (23 years ago, 2-Mar-02, to lugnet.db.inv)

Or you prefer to keep it only available online ? Philippe, I have Wanadoo as (...) (23 years ago, 2-Mar-02, to lugnet.db.inv)

(So I could be potentially a big slurper...) BTW, I tried another anonymizer which uses less (...) (23 years ago, 2-Mar-02, to lugnet.db.inv)
