Boy, this thread, started to answer a simple question, is starting to look all too familiar. Look. people will always use the language that they like most and/or best suits their situation people will use the languages they know best people will always find ways of telling people that their choice of language/architecture/hair tonic is better than yours and that you are stupid/lazy/bald people will always come to threads like these to vindicate themselves and rationalize the use of their own preferred language, or just to bash the other side. people will always take a side and selectively listen to only the arguments that support their choice, blocking out all the others with ridicule and high-fallutin talk People will always be mac vs. pc (i'm not talking about actually liking one over the other, just the mindset. Red vs. blue, left vs. right, its all the same). It's human nature guys, lets all work together and make the world a better place, rather than split ourselves up and hate each other for what makes us great, our ability to think for ourselves.

Hi folks, I know it says BETA in big letters on top, but the page views by day thingee is just showing a big red x (broken image link). Any idea as to why?

the problem is if you make it so that your client can't use it, then neither can you. You can implement some security by requiring a certain key be passed in to your method calls, and you can protect against reflection and disassembly by Obfuscating your dll. You can use Dotfuscator Community Edition included with VS2005/8 to do that for you. Hope this helps! Greg
