Yeah,
It seems that a lot of people had problems getting these archives to open, due to various platform specific issues (Apple vs. Dos vs. Atari), certain archivers not being compatible (STZIP) or passwords that were for different versions of the archives (when the archives were not named with version numbers?!?). I for one didn't figure out until just recently that my problems all along were the result of having downloaded the wrong version of the archive for my later version passwords.
I found several (of the surviving, not yet censored) threads going back several years, where users who registered and were trying to follow the rules were left frustrated because they downloaded this huge file with information that they needed, but could not open it due to some red tape.
They asked for help from the author, and did not get it. They asked for help in the forums or on usenet, and were threatened or blackballed by the author.
Perhaps the author could have been a little more understanding of the problems with his flawed distribution method, instead of always interpreting the cries for help as non-compliant, law breaking, users intent on piracy (Arrrr!).
I say again, what is the use of gathering together a body of knowledge and then locking it away for no one to see?
Unfortunately, the goal must have been to feel like a celebrity, or to be in control, rather than to help others.
I'm just glad there are discussion groups like this where people are willing to openly share their knowledge and experience. I couldn't get along without it!
Cheers!

What's the anti-troll code?
That's your personal code to be able to add comments and messages on the dhs.nu site.
Don't have a code or forgot it? Fix it here.
