Notice about 10 of Tyger's links? I am going to have to remove this. I am not one to complain about somethign free, but this hacks states "supported" and it is not.

It is supported, I asked a bunch of questions and asked people to try a few things for me a while ago which remained ignored, I then posted an updated file and asked if that fixed the problem which again was ignored.

Only one person has answered my questions and given feedback about the updated file or otherwise made any big effort to help (and I forget your username unfortunately, but thank you I was very grateful!) and they posted their findings and they were ignored as well. It was caused, on their forum, by a scheduled task installed by a backup plugin.

I appreciate people's frustration, I feel it too. But it's not really fair to say I am ignoring people when frankly it generally seems to be the other way around. I'm doing my best.

If you are using a backup plugin and getting the copyright link error, please let me know. If you're not using a backup plugin and can track down which scheduled task is adding links, please let me know.

Bear in mind that it is apparently other modifications affectingthis one causing the problem, not a fault in my modification. So it may well be up to me to fix it, but it's not me causing it. There is nothing virus-like about it at all.

Once again, I do apologise. I understand how unaesthetic it looks. I can only suggest that if you can't wait for a solution you uninstall and look elsewhere.

Stranger and stranger. Thanks, wouldn't quite call that a solution though.
