Hi,


By searching the famous paper about NTFS ("tha dark side of NTFS"), i've noticied that a french page about NTFS is a BIG PLAGIARISM of your tutorial.

As a french guy, i confirm that your tutorial has been translated and even examples.

Here's the page: http://assiste.free.fr/p/internet_utilitaires/ads_spy.php

And the guy has not mentioned any link to your site!

Where is the respect of your work?

best regards.

This is very hard for me pinpoint as I dont know French.

The link you sent me to is about ADS Spy and alternate data streams. Are they plaigarizing my alternate data streams tutorial?

Grinler I may be wrong, but I think that according to this quote. That adsmac meant the site he has link to has plagiarized your NTFS tutorial. I have managed to find the NTFS article from the site. Which I had translated into English. With some help from Google.

I do not see how they are the same. But what do I know about this subject. Next to nothing. Lol Maybe adsmac can post back and answer to both of our posts.

Hi All, Grinler and Scarlett,

I am the Webmaster and Administrator of Assiste.com (and, while we're on the subject, the author of the tests and the writer of the paper in question).

I have just discovered this article at the time of the progressive swing of our site in version 4.

What is this " silly thing " (and the word is soft) above? Hope you will edit or delete this thread.

Ours papers are at

Cordially

Pierre,

I think this is a non-issue. The person never posted back and we never pursued because we saw nothing wrong. Sorry for the user's allegation.
