Fascinating idea. Let's see, I give it away for free but if some one else uses it and sells it, then I'm being selfish if I don't want them doing it. I see no similarities with M$ at all. Get the tools from foundstone for free. If someone wants to sell foundstones intellectual properties, then they should be paying foundstone for it. Also the terms of use for all of these tools from foundstone essentially state that you can't resell the product or any part of it. Think if you owned it and someone wanted to make money on your intellectual properties. You do all that work and some one else makes money for it and you get nothing.

But doesn't Foundstone preach the proliferation of these tools only because they have Foundstone's copyright on them? It seems they're acting a lot like M$. --- bettyford5555 () yahoo com wrote:What does the community think of this news -

Seems big Foundstone is trying to keep others from releasing free tools to the community. Maybe I'm misinterpreting, but didn't they used to talk about the benefits of providing these types of tools to combat hacking? Perhaps I'm wrong and just misunderstanding theirposition. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Faith Hill - Exclusive Performances, Videos & More http://faith.yahoo.com
