RESTRICTION OF FUNCTIONALITY & CONTENT
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
By installing and using the IE-SPYAD "Restricted sites" list and/or the
INSTALL.BAT installation utility, you acknowledge that you have read,
understood, and agreed to following terms and conditions:
a) The IE-SPYAD "Restricted sites" list contain lists of domains and web
sites that your web browser will use to restrict the functionality and
content of those sites and domains when they are displayed in your web
browser.
b) By installing the IE-SPYAD "Restricted sites" list included in this dist-
ribution package, you acknowledge that it is your decision to restrict the
functionality and content of the web sites and domains covered in the IE-SPYAD
"Restricted sites" list -- including sites and services that may prohibit you
from restricting their functionality and content or otherwise interfering with
their services and software -- should you choose to use those sites, services,
and domains.
c) If you do not wish to restrict the functionality and content of certain of
those sites, you can selectively edit the IE-SPYAD "Restricted sites" list --
either in its source file form or through your web browser's graphical user
interface (GUI) -- to remove the list entries that restrict the functionality
and content of those sites.
d) You agree to accept any and all legal responsibility for the consequences
that may result from the restriction of functionality and content of the sites
and domains covered in the IE-SPYAD "Restricted sites" list when you use those
domains and sites.
e) If you have entered into contracts or agreements with the companies whose
sites and domains are included in the IE-SPYAD "Restricted sites" list, and
those contracts or agreements prohibit you from restricting the functionality
and content of those sites or otherwise interfering with the companies' soft-
ware or services, you agree that it is your responsibility to resolve those
contractual obligations in a satisfactory manner.

Advice on Distributing IE-SPYAD
-------------------------------
As noted above, IE-SPYAD is distributed under the terms of the Gnu General Public
License, a copy of which is online HERE.
That license gives you broad rights to modify and distribute IE-SPYAD, but in order
to exercise those rights, you must abide by the terms of the license. At a minimum,
to distribute, modify, or distribute modified versions of IE-SPYAD under the terms
of the GPL:
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that
in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or
any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all
third parties under the terms of this License.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display
an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and
a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you
provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program
under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy
of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive
but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based
on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
Furthermore, you must:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
source code, which must be distributed under the terms of
Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for
software interchange; or,
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
customarily used for software interchange; or,
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
received the program in object code or executable form with
such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
Since the IE-SPYAD Restricted sites list does not consist of binary code, the
following would be sufficient:
1) Include a notice somewhere in the installation stating the following:
This program makes use of a modified version of the IE-SPYAD Restricted
sites list, which is available from:
https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/ehowes/www/resource.htm
IE-SPYAD is (C) Copyright 2000-2004 Eric L. Howes.
IE-SPYAD is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under
the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software
Foundation; either version 2, or (at your option) any later version.
IE-SPYAD is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY
WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR
A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public License for more details.
You can obtain a copy of the GNU General Public License from the Free
Software Foundation online:

2) Include something like above notice in the ReadMe as well.
In fact, you could include the above notice with any other acknowledgements
and "thank you's" in your standard documentation.
3) Make a plain text version of the list available
If you've embedded the IE-SPYAD Restricted sites list in a binary program,
make a separate plain text version of the list (including your own additions
and modifications to the basic list) publicly available either on your web site
or with the program itself.
