PCHelp needs your help!

The PCHelp site is in very real danger of being REMOVED.

You are one of a great many people who have been helped by me and/or my
website.  I am writing you because I now need your help in return.  My
website, the principal page of which is found at
http://www.nwi.net/~pchelp/bo/bo.html is at serious risk of being
COMPLETELY TAKEN DOWN.

Why?  It is because I have chosen to expose a fraudulently advertised
product called Lockdown 2000.  Lockdown 2000 is a software product which
purports to deal with ALL trojans (such as Back Orifice) and with ALL
threats to personal PC security.  The claims made for this product are
false, and I have exposed the facts in several pages on my site.

I encourage you to read what I have written about Lockdown.  Links are
prominently displayed at the top right of the main BO page.

The primary perpetrator of the Lockdown scam, Michael Paris, has written
to my ISP threatening a $100,000+ lawsuit if my site is not shut down.

The full story of that threat is at:
http://www.nwi.net/~pchelp/bo/LDthreat.htm
READ THIS STORY NOW because it could be removed forever within a single
day!

MY ISP HAVE INFORMED ME THEY ARE TAKING THIS THREAT VERY SERIOUSLY!

It is now almost midnight on the night of 18 January 1999.  I only
learned of this legal threat a few hours ago.  Tomorrow, 19 January, my
ISP have said they will meet to consider their response to Mr. Paris'
accusations and decide what to do about the situation.  They are very,
very concerned.  They are a small business and cannot reasonably afford
such a lawsuit regardless of its complete lack of merit.

PLEASE EMAIL MY ISP and ask that they not allow these improper, baseless
accusations and threats to take precedence over reason!  I need every
iota of support I can get, and I know nowhere to turn but to those I
have helped.

The address to write is:  lornc@nwi.net

Tell them of the help you received.  Tell them what you think of
Lockdown and of Mr. Paris' accusations.  Tell them what you think of
this assault on free speech!  Ask them, whatever else they may do, that
they DO NOT ALLOW THE ENTIRE SITE TO BE REMOVED!  Too many people are
being helped every day.  Too many people will LOSE my freely-given help.

And please -- Tell your friends!

Sincerely,
Your friend,

pchelp

p.s.  I want to hear from anyone who is willing to reproduce my Lockdown
material on their website.  Even if my site is not entirely closed, I
can expect the Lockdown material to be banned!  As offensive as this may
be to our precious priciples of freedom of speech, I still must
sympathize with my ISP's difficult position.  If they demand it I will
remove the Lockdown subject matter.  But then the story will go untold! 
Michael Paris will have successfully silenced the truth about his
fraudulent actions! 

No matter how this crisis ends, I want Michael Paris to pay dearly for
his vicious threats and for his false advertising!  If you are a brave
and hardy soul, put up my Lockdown pages on your site and register them
with every search engine!  Flood the Net with the truth about this
shameless scam!

ALSO:  If my account here is closed, I can receive mail at
pc_help@my-dejanews.com

Thank you.
