"MicroShit": Erboster Provider im O-Ton
MS/frontpage98 und frontpage plus raten den Usern zum Providerwechsel. wer
keinen MS Server hat, ist arm dran.

This is a copy of a message I just sent to one of our subscribers who is
leaving becuase of the illegal tactics by MicroShit.

I thought you may find this interesting, but it appears this problem just
occurred, and we are not the only ones suffering from the wrath of unfair
business practices by Microsoft. I have since filled a complaint with the
Wisconsin's State Attorneys Office in Madison. I have also contacted our
vendors to make sure they are aware of the problem. An plans are underway now
to get an NT server in here for FrontPage Client. I have no other choice, but
I am in business to keep customers happy and it appears that this is the only
way to do it. Apparently it is the FrontPage 98 version and FrontPage Plus
under Windows98 that cause the problems. Also FrontPage Plus will return the
following message to subscribers that sign up with ISP's that do not use
Microsoft Based Server:

"The web site you have specified does not appear to be FrontPage enabled, so
you cannot upload your files to it using the FrontPage Enabled Web protocol.
You might want to try selecting another Internet Provider from the list of
Internet Service Providers." ie. Only those using Microsoft.
