Or under the 'Learning Zones'?

Dave, I looked at that section, but it seemed like it was all commercial stuff, not free. Not sure that Chris would want to put it there, although the title certainly fits.

I think each of the zones is a sponsored zone to a given topic, don't think there would be any harm in it. Maybe he can get Stanford or MIT to sponsor the new free zone

When I place a comment in the Q&A section I get the error message:
Oops! There seems to be a server problem, please try posting your comment later.
After the refreshing the page the comment is present and correct.

I was doing a site update around this time. I assume the problem has since gone away?

Chris,
Might it have something to do with my name.
Because I noticed when I submit an answer in Q&A my name is displayed as André Kraak. After a refresh the name is correctly displayed.

Chris,
What ever you did it worked, I just posted a comment and got no error message.
[Edit] Sorry, spoke to soon now I am getting the error again.

This[^] question seems to be related to hacking. I have voted to remove it and reported the profile too.

What's unethical about it? The question is perfectly valid for any web-based remote control app.
Cheers,

The media player certainly has access to the file system of the client (otherwise it wouldn't be able to play the media files). What if someone controls the media player and gets access to the client's file system. You can even write code to upload files silently to your server in the background without the user knowing about it.

What you say is true, but one has to keep it all in context. After all, every demo app here on Codeproject has access to the user's file system, when a member downloads and runs it. If what the OP is trying to do has a legitimate purpose, there is really no way to determine if he has a nefarious intent.
I would either pass it by or give it a professional answer.

Agreed. Several years ago I needed to write an application to send keyboard/mouse data to an embedded box that didn't have USB/PS2 input. Half of the application was identical to a keystroke/mouse use logger. The most dramatic difference between it and the equivalent malware was that instead of doing everything possible to hide itself my app blocked the input from reaching the host PC at all, ran fullscreen, and displayed in a giant font "To return control to local computer enter Magic Keystroke Combination". However there was no way for any of the people who pointed me to the information[^] I needed[^] to know that any more than there was for the article authors to prevent what they wrote from also being used maliciously.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Sure, however the entire home automation and remote monitoring industry is a legitimate use of the same kind of technology. If we avoided all technology that has the potential for unethical use we'd be missing out on a lot of really useful things too.
Cheers,
Drew.

Someone marked my answer as accepted, and the unmarked it. The points history shows the addition of 25 points, but then shows the deduction of 25 points *twice*.

It was bad enough when the cursor kept jumping to the bottom, now it's jumping to the middle! 
Whoever is developing/testing the POS needs to test with a longer, more complex message.
Did you off-shore it to the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation?

It's a bug, and it's on my watch and I accept that, I apologise for it, and I'll fix it.
However, I think the attitude can be left at the door.

I understand the level of frustration he's experiencing. It's damn hard to enter a message if you're cutting pasting, especially if it starts to get even a little complex.

I understand the frustration, and I am myself frustrated that there aren't more hours in the day. I'm not sure how this means being polite is no longer necessary.
Regardless, I spent a few hours Sunday which will hopefully improve the situation.

It was meant as gentle, even respectful, ribbing.
