ngohq are getting paranoid... they also think they are the only people on the net who can do anything.... I could find No Plagiarism in the article, true the subject matter was similar, but thats it. |

I've had my guides ripped off & (literally) posted word for word on plenty of sites over the years so I know a bit about being plagarised. If it's not a word for word copy there's not much point complaining - I mean I don't moan at other sites for posting tweak guides of the same/similar topics & they don't moan at me either (After all, much of the content covered will inevitably be the same). If the point is "you" use a disassembler to view code in a specific file there's not really much ways you can write that up. PE Explorer is cited as being an unbelievable point in common - try enter "Dll disassembler" into Google & see what the first result is - PE Explorer, so is it really that unlikely they both use a popular disassembler? There's a link on Anand now, that should be enough really. |

Anyway, the point is I can understand being protective of your own content. Heck, several years ago I even felt Tweak3d would purposely post up a guide a day or 2 before I would as they *knew* when I'd intended to post mine after reading a post I'd make on the matter. You get over such paranoia though  Just keep pumping out good content is more important. |

I thought that W2S readers may stand up for us. W2S is our first website that we send news to. I believe you already saw our articles back then because it was posted here. These who couldn’t see our point, Try to look at their “How to do” line, if you read our article almost two weeks ago, you may notice it immediately without any thoughts. |

There is no recourse except to tell your side of the story to as many people as possible ... not much you can do, unless you want to invest time and money to initiate some legal action. (and this isn't exactly a slam-dunk case by any means) |

Yes I see they use the word "The" in their article... I definitely think you have grounds for a case. Yeah right... |

I have read both the articles and theres nothing there. Why did you think W2S members would stick up for you? If you are wrong you are wrong. |
