  • Plagiarism of Windows XP SP1 Guide

    Plagiarism is the best form of flattery, right?

    One of our readers let us know that HACKERSTYLE.COM copied our Windows XP SP1 Upgrade word for word, even the HTML for images links as you'll soon see.

    Come on, Tweak.. you can tell us! You've been moonlighting again at HACKERSTYLE, haven't you! :no:

    I wonder how they could expect to get away with that, as closely linked as the collection of tweaking sites are on the internet!

      They're dense Tweak. They just removed the coding for the pic. You'll have to do this the hard way since they can't seem to take a hint. :(

          I got a response, for those interested...

          Hey,

          It wasn't mine intension to steal your article. I just thought it should look prettier directly from mine site =)
          I respect someones work so if you want it removed from mine server, I'll do so.

          I hope you are not too mad about it so we can forget the whole 'stealing' thing.

          Regards,

                    heh couldn't see it apparently they took it down already. anyway apparently there logo isn't too original either! They stole there logo design and made a cheap wanna-be copy of the band metallica's logo when they used it between 83-91! Who agrees with me?

                          Heh heh, that's pretty funny, especially the guys response to you. Heh heh.

                          An article on how to steal something and it gets stolen! Hilarious!

                          Bill Gates might even have found it amusing, though I kinda doubt it ;)

                          BTW I did download and install the 1106. The second link is the one that worked for me. It installed like a champ, just like you said it would ;)

                          The only small glitch I had was that upon checking my settings I saw that my system restore was suspended on drive C saying suspended meant not enough room on the HDD. I knew this was BS because I have like 3 Gigs free on that drive. I was starting to get a bit worried but then I went and created a system restore point and then went back and checked and it was then changed from suspended to monitoring. Must have been a small glitch that was cleared up.

                          So far, so good.

                            That should work out just fine. It's now nothing more than a news blurb with an appropriate link to our site. Just the way it should be.
