We thought we had defined the Rule of Operation about the Sale of Goods and Services fairly well. We hadn't considered "Bartering" until now. The recent offer to "Trade" homes during Commissioning Week '02 is a "Barter" and is still considered as an offer of Goods and/or Services FOR SALE. As such, these "Trades" are forbidden under our Rules of Operation which say... "7. No Commercial Content Message which contain information about Commercial Goods and/or Services for sale are prohibited. This includes any message offering anything for sale by a member or a local Annapolis establishment." As your Moderators, we realize that information about these sorts of things may be of great value to our members and, therefore, we will be initiating a "Message Board" (exclusively for MEMBERS ONLY) which will permit the OFFERING of ANY Goods/Services for Sale or REQUESTS for same by our members. These will include: Ride Shares, Ticket Exchanges, Care Packages, Local Accomodations, Rentals, Local Merchant Offerings, Cell Phone Deals, etc. It will take a few days to get the technical details worked out and it will be announced formally when it is working 100%. When it is ready, we will post a formal announcement with details about how it works, etc. Until then, please remember that NOTHING is to be offered or asked for on our lists that are Goods and/or Services for Sale and that the existing RULE (#7) has not been rescinded, nor will it be when the Message Board goes on-line. We hear you. This new service is probably long overdue. This will be a MEMBERS ONLY service, making your membership in our Listservers even more valuable. Membership does, indeed, have its priviledges.

I said it before and I find myself forced to repeat myself for those who may not remember my message of just last FRIDAY @ 5:00 PM. USNA-Net is NOT a public discussion forum. It is NOT a soapbox for the use of those who wish to extoll or decry the US Naval Academy or anything else for that matter. We are a MENTORING group. Parents Helping Parents through shared ADVICE, SUPPORT and INFORMATION. Opinions (pro or con) are NOT appropriate for our lists. Members who consistently choose to violate our Rules of Operation are now being removed from our Listservers for these violations. We are here to share our experiences as Parents of Midshipmen. We are NOT here to preach, discuss or analyze the Academy. We are also NOT here to argue for changes in attitude among our fellow Parents. We are here to help each other. If you are unhappy with this policy, unsubscribe. If you are unwilling to abide by our Rules you will be removed. To quote an old Navy Chief that I had the pleasure of serving under, "If you don't like it, put a sock in it." Don't write to me crying about freedom of speech. Membership in these lists is a privilege not a right. Now let's get on with helping each other and leave these DISCUSSIONS behind us, once and for all. If you question this policy, I suggest you reread our Rules of Operation and our Mission Statement, both available on our web site.

PLEASE take note... ***** If you are using Microsoft Outlook Express you are VULNERABLE to this virus!!! ***** The worm utilizes a known Microsoft Outlook Express security hole so that a virus is created on your computer WITHOUT YOU DOING ANYTHING, including reading the message or opening and/or reading its attachment. Simply receiving the email message with its attachment will cause the virus to be placed on your system. IMPORTANT NOTE: Since our initial run-in with the KAKworm earlier this year, our USNA-Net server has been set up to strip away the infected attachment file from ANY email sent through our system. The KAKworm acts as a two part infection. The first part is an imbedded "Active-X" command that is actually part of the email message itself. This part of the infection is the trigger mechanism. The second part is another file (KAK.HTA) which is the payload and is the attached file that is copied to your hard drive and causes the infection to spread to others. When you receive an infected email, the "Active-X" trigger (inside the email) causes the attached file (KAK.HTA) to be copied and thus infect your machine. Our server strips the infected attachment portion of the worm from the email and therefore, you CANNOT get infected from an email received from our Lists. The "Active-X" trigger cannot be removed from the actual email and so when it arrives in your mailbox, your anti-virus software will still send up red flags and sound the alarm but there is no danger from this as long as the attachment is NOT there with the message. This is why we are so dead set against anyone sending anything to our lists with attachments. Microsoft has patched this security hole. The patch is available to you for free by going to this site: http://www.norton.com/avcenter/venc/data/wscript.kakworm.html read the instructions and download the patch so that your system, and everyone with whom you email, is protected from this worm!!! We need EVERY MEMBER using Microsoft Outlook Express to download this patch, if you have not already done so, do it TODAY!! Don't download/receive any email, or send a single email to anyone until you have done this. Just because you do NOT have the infection right now does NOT mean you might not get it. If you do NOT have the patch, you are vulnerable to receiving it the next time you receive an email from a friend who might, unknowingly, have sent it to you. Remember, we can only strip the attachment from email sent to you through our Lists. Private email between members is NOT PROTECTED ! PLEASE download the patch! Then, we might be able to put this whole KAKworm fiasco to rest!! As always, we recommend that you install a good anti-virus protection program on your computer and keep it updated. One more thing... Mike and I are aware of EVERY time an email is sent to the Lists with a virus attached. We not only get notifications from the server BUT we receive our own copies of the email. So, although I know you are trying to keep us on our toes, we do NOT need you to write us ( OR THE LISTS !!!) telling us when you received one. We already know. We get the first copy of every email, hot off the presses. Thanks for your understanding. Get the patch, get an anti-virus program and remember that your Mids may be infected or could get infected from you as they begin sending and receiving email again this AC year.

You may find the new page listed as "Classifieds" in the main menu on our web site at www.navy-usna.org. You will need to supply your User Name and Password to access the site. As an example of what the ads may look like, we've placed a sample ad for Sandi's Web Design business in the Classifieds to get us started. The newest ads will ALWAYS be at the top of the list and are dated for your convenience. The Classifieds are FREE for the use of our members. No ads will be accepted EXCEPT from members. No one except members will be allowed to access or view the Classifieds, hence, the password requirement. This is a service intended for MEMBERS ONLY. Get the point? There will be NO restrictions on what may be advertised except that all items must be LEGAL and all ads in good taste in the view of the Moderators. This means that we WILL allow all legal Goods and/or Services including Real Estate, Rentals, Tickets, Business Listings, Rides Wanted, Cancellations, Employment, Parents' Club Event Announcements, Club Fund Raisers, etc. The few rules and/or suggestions about content are on the "Add your Ad" page. For now, we will allow most ads to remain on the page for two weeks in order to maintain freshness. This may change according to how the whole process works. Once ads are removed they will be lost forever. So, don't write asking us or our other members for an ad that was there last week but is gone now. We won't have a way to retrieve it or send you "Back Issues" of the ads. If you see something that you are interested in today, print out the page for later reference and keep it yourself. As always, if you have problems with accessing the page or in placing an ad, write to YOUR MODERATORS, not to the lists. In association with the addition of this new service, we have revised the Rule of Operation regarding Commercial Content. The new Rule is as follows... "7. No Commercial Content - All message which contains information about Personal or Commercial Goods and/or Services FOR SALE or WANTED TO BUY are prohibited. This includes any message offering to barter, exchange or give away anything. - All such offerings/advertisements MUST be placed on our Classified Advertisement Web Page. - All legal Goods and/or Services are allowed in the Classified Ads including Real Estate, Rentals, Tickets, Business Listings, Rides Wanted, Cancellations, Employment, etc. - NO Football/USNA Sports ticket sales or exchanges are allowed to be included in a message to our Listservers. They must be placed in the Classified Ads Web Page instead. - If an email message mentions Prices, Money or Goods/Services WANTED or FOR SALE it may NOT be broadcast to the lists. All such information MUST be placed on the Classified Advertisement Page. ." This should keep loads of messages off the lists and make everyone a little happier since the rule is now very Black and White. If it's about something for sale or wanted to buy, trade or give away, it goes in the Classifieds and not in an email to the lists. If you choose to place an ad in the classifieds, please remember to use your Full REAL name and your email address under which you are subscribed as a member. Please do not abuse the privilege of placing ads on this page. The Classifieds are not intended to be used for the benefit of non-members. In case you forgot, your User Name and Password are...
