Mr. Seward,

Because our work was funded by the US Department of Justice for the benefit
of US Federal, State, and local law enforcement agencies, we cannot make the
database available at no charge to US private sector companies.

However, non law enforcement entities may purchase a license to the database
version compatible with their forensic tool of choice for US $500. We
currently have versions of the SAFDB compatible with four different forensic
tools: EnCase, ILook, FTK, and HashKeeper. The three additional versions of
the data base are US $200 each. The license includes any updates made to the
version of the database purchased for one year from the date of purchase.

Respectfully,
Chad

Sounds like an e-Infomercial to me Chad.  If your making it available free
of charge that's one thing, but if your using the group to sell your
services or product you should not be allowed to do that in
securityfocus.com.  Previously you enticed us with the Steganography
database (SAFDB) and now your saying "I invite you to contact us for
additional information" and I don't like the sounds of that.  This is not
where you get your leads to sell your yourself Chad.

Jack
