    How do you determine "apparent readership"?

    Had he not fullquoted, there would not have been any "content" for
    whatever readership there might be (apparent or otherwise) in that
    group. Sure, readers there could grab the reference ID from the headers
    if they wanted to know what led up to that post, but why put them
    through all that?

    I didn't know that, and I don't understand how *you* could know that.

    My response was to your post. Had I wanted to reply to the OP, I would
    have. You asked why fullquote, I attempted to answer - but forgot who I
    was talking to...I should know better...

    I'm saying YOU are mistaken in this thread.
    I suggest... dropping the issue.

    Oh, is that what you want to talk about now? Is that how you want to
    change the subject?

    Ok, let's talk about that.

    When there are hardly any posts in group, I'm betting there is hardly
    any readership. Now are you going to dwell on that tangent?

    Are you daft?

    When you reply to a post, your new material is the defacto "content".
    If you choose not to quote any part of the preceeding post, most readers
    know how to go back up a thread and read the preceeding material if it's
    necessary to understand your new content.

    This is what Foldes added when he replied to the OP:
    <!--coloro:blue--><span style="color:blue <!--/coloro-->
    > crossposted to the public.ru.russian.server<!--colorc--><!--/colorc-->

    Do you think that "content" is in any way a coherent or useful
    response? Does the OP need to see his original post (which Foldes
    full-quoted) in order to understand or know the context of Folde's
    response?

    What newsreader do you use?

    Any decent news reader (even google groups) will show in tree format all
    threaded posts. The preceeding post is only a mouse click away. There
    is never any need to full-quote when crafting a usenet reply, or worse,
    to build a fully-quoted chain response.

    What do you mean that you "didn't know that" ??

    What didn't you know? That the OP was composed of cyrillic characters?

    If Foldes can read and write in Russian (cyrillic) then why didn't he
    craft is response in Cyrillic?

    I'm saying you haven't explained yourself, and I'm sure as hell not
    going to drop the issue and leave it where you say I'm mistaken unless
    or until you tell me how I'm mistaken.

    You still don't understand. You can't grasp the simple concept that
    having the correct fonts installed has no bearing on why I asked Foldes
    why he full-quoted the OP in his reponse.

    And this is an english-speaking newsgroup.

    There are other microsoft.* groups that are centric to other languages,
    as indicated in the name of the group. Any so-called MVP would know
    that.

    1. The topic was a DLL and CSID which are thought to be malicious

    2. The subject matter was posted in Cyrillic and is quite legible (but not
    understandable by me) posted by a Russian using; "charset="koi8-r"

    3. Peter X-Posted this in a Russian group that *may* have someone capable of
    translating that into English

    4. Peter *had* to quote all text otherwise it would NOT be visible in the Russian NG of
    question.

    I saw/see NOTHING OT in the post and I don't see any problem with what Peter did. I think
    you unjustly pounced on this.

    BTW: There is no Russian anti virus NG in the Microsoft hierarchy.
