Nice...

But one thing i should mention is that charging extra for WOLspy or GSA hosting, isn't a great idea. Simply because they were provided free and their maker's may not want others to make profit from it. Usually it will say somewhere with the application if you can or can't make profit from it. You will have to ask djlaptop if its ok with him to charge for WOLspy.

I don't believe that you can legally charge people extra for either WOLSPY or GSA.

Why? Simple. I doubt you would wish to pay DeeJay or Gamespy royalties. Did you make WolSpy? No. Do you have DeeJay's permission to charge for an application he made "freeware"? No.

I think.

As long as his income doesn't exceed what he's paying for the bandwidth, then it's fine. As in essance, he's charging for the bandwidth usage, not the program.

The fact that you tried to charge for it proves what I've been saying forever.

You're a moron.

Its easier (for me anyway) to get your server IP from WOL than GSA. Hiding your IP is NOT a valid reason for *anything*. If you have a server on the internet its IP is either in plain sight, or very, very easily obtained. Even if you could not log into wol or gsa and directly get a servers IP, a simple packet sniff would reveal both its IP and port.

Warranto is right.

If you want to charge for hosting, charge for hosting. I have no beef with that. It's like if you download Apache and then charge for webhosting. They have no claim to any $$$. Neither do I.

If, however, your WOLSpy has trouble, which some people have reported, you'd better be prepared to issue refunds if the customer so desires.
