How does one have MS remove the MVP status of a MORON?

I asked a question hoping for a fix and this is the kind
of responce that one get's here?
This is rediculous, I can expect an answer from several
different users like this but not an MVP. Please advise
thanks

Hi

See if this works:

Right click on the file and select properties.

Press the "Unblock" button if one exists.

Torgeir is one of the very best of MVP's that I've come across in this
group. Just look at his response to you in this thread. He is just a
gentleman and a scholar, when what you really deserved was to be
flamed for your ingratitude.

What don't you understand or reject about his answer to you? Just
ask, and you might find out your answer. Attacking someone won't get
you anywhere closer to the answers you are looking for.

Now if you want to report Mikey B. for his censorship of my posts,
send all such complaints to:

Actually, WinXP SP2 is adding information to e.g. exe and zip files
downloaded from the internet when you use Internet Explorer (and as
long as you save them to a NTFS disk, because this information is
added to an alternate NTFS stream).

To unblock them, you can do as I wrote, Right-click/Properties/Unblock

Let me give you an example (note: you will need to save the file to a
disk that use the NTFS file system and not FAT32).

Use Internet Explorer to go to this URL:

http://www.google.com/[email protected]

Then right-click on the link to the file
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/hijackthis.zip
and select "Save Target As..."

Save the file to your hard disk (NTFS!).

Then find the file in Explorer and right-click/Properties.

You should now see a button labeled "Unblocked" with the following
description at it's side:

Security: This file came from another computer and might be blocked
to help protect this computer


This is why I asked you to check if you could see this "Unblock"
button on the downloaded file(s), and if so, see it it would
help on you problem to unblock the file.

Regards,
Torgeir

No such thing as unblock in the properties of files, never
has been.

There is now on files downloaded after installation of SP2

You are not excused for being gratuitously insulting.

If you found the reply unhelpful, just ignore it, or...did you take it
personally? ;)
