Warning about intrusive behavier by sim site

This is just to warn everyone that if you link to http://www.grandprixgames.net/ there site will make itself your homepage. I think that this is unacceptable behaviour, and have e-mailed them to say so. -- Mark Aisthorpe London UK GPLRank +105.25 (bugger, been playing to much GP3 now I can hardly do a lap in GPL) Remove NO-SPAM to reply

What's worse, the devious website shenanigans of grandprixgames or the far more serious damage that GP3 is having on your GPL skills? Chris --GPLRank 98.40 and having similar issues with GP3 (which I can't drive for crap either) On Mon, 14 Aug 2000 22:43:20 +0100, Wooky <[email hidden]> wrote:

One way of avoiding being treated like this is to stay away from M$IE. Stefan Mark Aisthorpe wrote:
