Subject: Re: iDefense Q-1 2007 Challenge
I agree with you KF , that's why I do not recommand iDEFENSE in my
forum's footer since some times now.
They are just playing on the fact they are alone , or they were alone
for a long time on this market, and they do
not wish to do any effort, making loads of dollars with us , to say
clean , they sucks.
