*Seems* to work with SurfPlus, definitely does not work with TopText. 
I need to do some more testing with SurfPlus to determine whether

In the article that started this thread, it said that M$ had backed 
off of the use of SmartTags because of these very issues (copyright, 
etc.). But if the technology is still there in IE, then that could be 
how these theives are doing it.
