Fairenoughski!

It has now been removed. I only did it for the what seemed to be an easy challenge. I'm certainly not one to promote hacking.

I did read the terms of use on the streetmap website and nothing was mentioned about the postcodes - only that of the images.

I'm sure that someone will be able to point me to the bit which prohibitely states my program (now defunct!) is breaking the law?

As I say, I don't like hacking, and this program seemed to be a low risk program to write, and there isn't anything I've seen on streetmap to suggest otherwise.

Hey no probs!!! :D Sorry if the last post seemed in any way offensive to you!!! Surely didn't mean it.

I did read that bit in the t&c, but my reading of it led me to believe it was only talking about the images. I see from a second look that you're right and that there is a problem with _everything_.

Its an interesting subject this - whether the postcode files should be free for anyone to use.
