I only see two *newsgroup* posts by "ACF Member":

"we shall be obeyed!!" posted to alt.comp.programming,
alt.comp.anti-virus, alt.comp.adware, 24hoursupport.helpdesk

"Errors on the gnu web site" posted to alt.comp.programming,
alt.comp.anti-virus, alt.comp.adware, 24hoursupport.helpdesk

"ACF Member" plagiarized a post I made on May 18 in the "Screenshot
Captor: A New Definition for Freeware" thread - then added
misinformation and a bunch of false claims. . .

With "friends" of ACF like this who needs enemies? :(
