To say it with Hamlet: "To be or not to be ... ;-)"
Once I can see if you happen to overlook the bottom of the page... but three times?
I can see it, but it does require complete and thorough reading. Maybe too much to expect of some people!
If it is worded that way to keep the casual interloper out, then I would say it is secure by its obscurity.
It is written in bold letters, so one should find it :-)
Check it out on a 1024x768 monitor with a couple toolbars enabled (google, yahoo, some spam-bot shopping-helper bar). Never underestimate the people who don't scroll. Below the fold = invisible sometimes.
I have to agree with Simon. Also, the key was pretty clear when you started the "experiment," too.
But then, not everyone is following you on a daily basis. :-)
Maybe s/he would be a good test user for the "How to confuse an idiot" video ;-)
Kevan, I understand how one can miss it. But if you have been told twice?
Even I didn't need ANY mouse click for this. Really.
And I have no idea what a bozo is.
Ha ha ha - Bozo is completely the correct term in this case mate.
- Coatsie
