By not respecting robots.txt and allowing unlimited number
of connections when copying sites your software has
succeeded in bringing our server to a halt on Sunday. 
Costing thousands of dollars in man hours to remedy the
problem and get the server back online.  This is the third
time it has happened.

The is no different from a denial of service attack and our
web hosting provider is now looking into legal remedies both
in Europe and the US to prevent further attack from HTTrack
and the individual in question.

Steps must be taken to remedy this situation. Bandwidth on
most web servers is not free and the cost to site owners
could be into millions of dollars due to use of software
such as yours.
