I completely agree with Jeff.  Dmitriy Sklyar and I actively watch 
Technet for both commercialism and spams, and take action to indicate to 
the submitter that their submission is inappropriate.  I have attached my 
private reply for your information.  If you are concerned about the 
postings, please contact [log in to unmask], or [log in to unmask], you can rest 
assured that we will follow-up.  This will cut down on thousands of 
emails that our server must handle.

Thanks for your cooperation (my reply is below Jeff's comments)
