 If you are going to ignore everything I say, please get lost.  
 
 If you are going to tell your customers to get lost, it's a wonder you have any customers at all. I will get lost, and I'm going to use Netscape FastTrack. It works alot better than Apache, and I won't have to spend countless hours trying to hack it to w ork.
 
 I am amazed at how you are qualified to talk about "everyone else" yet all
 the people that we have that are having zero problems don't matter somehow
 and I have never heard of any of these "everyone else".
 
 Just because no one has complained does not mean "they are having zero problems." They probably realized complaining to people like you is fruitless.
 
  I am trying to
 figure out the cause of this problem and a way to fix it, but if you
 refuse to provide the information I ask for there ism't much I can do. 
 
 You are right, there is nothing you can do. You are incompetent. And you don't know how to deal with people.
 
 I would have to suggest your system is really messed up in some way.  You
 can't run the installer, you can't compile properly, etc.  You don't seem
 to understand that we have had zero reports for anyone else with this sort
 of problem. 
 
 I think your head is really messed up.
