I've tried contacting him but no response yet and I don't expect one.

Whether the popup is aggrevating or not is not the point IMO. I just don't appreciate my code being taken without permission and as he found my site through this forum I thought it would be ok to post my annoyance here as it is sort of related.

Anyway as I said you can delete the thread if it's not appropriate - I just needed to vent my anger.

He's blocked from the server now so I don't need to worry about him (unless he changes ISP) but if he steals my code he may do it to others here.

Anyway sorry.

Why is it always me in this sticky situations :( - I guess I ask for it.
