in thread Where can I find Win32::AdvNotify

That's a pain. It almost seems like the author is attempting to remove AdvNotify from the public domain. Each time I have found a source, it rapidly disappears from view?

      Thanks, but I've had my copy for ages:). I also keep the .tar.gz or zip files for packages I use regularly so that I have them available for re-install when I upgrade perl.

      I'm also not sure about the legality of your making the module available from your webspace either. Both the .pm and the accompaning .dll carry (unusuallyfor a perl module) a copyright to the author, all rights reserved. Not the usual GPL or Artistic licence. Hence why I didn't make my copy available. I got from the authors own website, so I assume it okay for me to have it and use it, but I think it would be dodgey to start distributing it.

      Risking the wrath (again) of the morons that knee-jerk about things that they don't understand. What I said earlier about it appearing that the author is withdrawing the code from the public domain still stands. I've done a fairly intensive search of the net via google and a couple of others and it does not appear to be available publicly anywhere, anymore! As recently as a couple of weeks ago there were at least three places where it could be obtained.
