Jim's "panicked" at first too.


I think I'd start looking for someone else to host my site...

I figure it's a bit "early" in the game to start looking.  Mecca has my
answer and they'll no doubt chew it over now.  I don't want to get into
a game of "whack-a-mole (or website tag)" with Sableman.  Here's their
email to me earlier:

At this time we will provide you a 24 hour period to have the subject remove or the hosting account will be suspended.

And here's my response:

> Please give me the name of your legal council.  The Tech Help! Release 11/07 Version ?B? presently on the site has absolutely NO BRINKS panels it at all.  It is revised from the original Tech Help Beta.  I had requested Mr. Rojas remove any material which might give offense to Brinks or the Texas Federal Court in order to ensure full compliance with the Injunction and no further actions either against myself or Mecca.  Jim Rojas OWNS the software and has given me full permission to host it as you now see it.  Please rest assured there is nothing in this version of Tech Help that is the least bit offensive or violates any copyright or intellectual property right.  If you wish to discuss this with me further, you may call me at ***
