     Do you suffer eyeball cramp . In my earlier posts you will note that I stated that "I can provide the drivers at no cost (for free) " The scan if you wish to use it other than thru the site I am on does cost money if you wish to use it  Correct> Wrong in that I never have once said it was a free application  but thru XXXXXX-XXXX.com and the crew that supports it the service is free.
    And for crying out loud I have not been trying to sneak in and SELL f'all. I was attempting to point a person who asked for help in that are there any other sites.....

    Your an affiliate so that reasoning can easily be argued. Besides, the original question was already being answered so your link, free or not, wasn't needed.

    Just found this thread and though I would add my two cents.  I have been helped for free by the program that driver-chat mentioned. (on driverguide.com) I did not have to pay 1 penny.  He asked me to do a scan with the software and then he gave me the links to the drivers.  I did not have to hand out credit card information, name, address, e-mail, or anything else that is personal. The only thing he asked for was the scan ID #.  Hope this clears up some of the misconceptions.

    (Just to let you know the reason I had to do the scan was because the driver that was on the manufacturer's website was broken)
    To think, that someday, someone will always outdo me.

      Well I see that the opinion of the experts not the needs of the masses rulz again
      The link is live in that the scan is how I help .
      I do not need the link there but to help others I considered it a service to have the link so that some poor sod would not have to click in and click out of two sites so I could help them.
      If then the definition in your eyes makes it an affiliate then so b it .
      I might equally question the touting of everest here when the more important links it provides points to pay for sites.

        not at all i was pointing out that there are many good and free and unbiased help rooms out there that are there to genuinely help
        my first post !
        I was somewhat aggravated by some members ability to decry without even consideration .
        I only posted the site when requested
        I was not touting any thing
        I was challenging a wrong statement

        Even free services get complaints. You can't please everyone all of the time.

           Driver Agent scan is how I help !
          It would appear to be not welcomed here.
          I did come here to help!
          I was attacked.
          If any wish to run the scan and post the id I will willingly help.

          wow... this is progressing quite similar to the Reimage thread... that is, not at all.

          The same as M$ updates are trogans and as you AV's are also as they all look thru your system.
          Every site you visit or chat you use has cookies etc that are left on your machine . .

          And yet oddly enough MS updates and Anti-virus installers aren't caught by any Anti-virus's internal heuristics. So what is DriverAgent doing differently to set it off?


          It would appear to be not welcomed here.
          I did come here to help!
          I was attacked.


          you came here to advertise your site. your a "protective" spammer, just like the guy from ReImage. Spending time searching google for negative references to your affiliates and then spending god knows how long trying to "correct" this "travesty" is not what one would consider helping.



          Well I see that the opinion of the experts not the needs of the masses rulz again
          The link is live in that the scan is how I help .
          I do not need the link there but to help others I considered it a service to have the link so that some poor sod would not have to click in and click out of two sites so I could help them.

          I might equally question the touting of everest here when the more important links it provides points to pay for sites.


          "opinion of masses" is not provided by "random other account created by the same person to try to appear to come from a third party benefited by your service". I'd lay money that the IPs are the same, too.

            One of the joys of freedom is that each is entitled to an opinion and it would seem that yours is the ruling one so to the opinion I will bow the logic i believe is befuddled.

            A better than good chance the reason the av is not triggered by M$ product is the machine is based on M$ product
            DUH!
            You have given permission for an update so it swims on in.!

            The update installer is a Trojan for crying out loud !

            Also was interested as to why you did not answer about Everest ?

            But as you say this went from a help you to an apolitical bun fight which contrary to popular belief was not my intend , it was girded by the response I received to my post.

            As for the random account it was from some one I helped who is now a helper and for his generous but misguided intentions I apologize but by all means check the IP and eat those words.

            I will withdraw to the sidelines .

            I cannot see the IP and thus am unable to verify my allegations, and if they prove false then I do indeed apologize.
