     Well this is the First release from UseFull & UseLess Software, I
have spent alot of time working on miscellaneous AREXX projects trying to
prerfect my programming skills, I have come along way and I know I've
still got a ways to go, but I think that I have learned enough to start
produceing usefull software.  I would like to thank all of the AREXX
programmers out there who were kind enough to fully comment there
programs.  All of you have helped tremendously in my progress.
 
Ok now on to the program.....

While looking for a Phone Security checker for my BBS I found a big
suprise, there was a ton of them, then only problem was that they eather
didn't work with my version of C-Net or they required quite a bit of
system editing.  So here is my solution an all in one easy to install
phone number checker.. This program should work with all versions of C-Net
all the way back to 1.00 (I don't have a version earlier to test it.)
(NOTE: 1.04 is no longer compatible with C-Net 1.00-1.97, Use v1.03d for
these systems.) It also accounts for all the different phone combinations
that have shown up through the multitudes of C-Net updates. Also the
program only requires that you edit one line in your sys.welcome file. (You
don't have to go sorting through the BBSTEXT file and guess at the right
line to change.)  This program takes care off all users automaticly, and  
the users don't have to do anything. (There are others out there that
request the user to enter there phone # manually.) It also allows you to
select how often the program checks the users # (Any # or have it Randomly
Select when).

Ok Installation.....

First you need to make a Directory in your Pfiles area called PhoneSecurtiy

			MakeDir Pfiles:PhoneSecurity

Copy PhoneSecurity to your Pfiles Directory
			
			Copy PhoneSecurity to Pfiles:

Next you need to add a call to the program in your Sys.Welcome file.
			
			\#0PFiles:PhoneSecurity.rexx\

Next you need to decide how often you want the program to check the
callers number.  The variable 'CC' = how often you want the program to
check the users phone #. Also you can set this variable to do a random
check. You need to replace the CC = # with CC = Random(x,y) where x is the
minimum times to check and y is the maximum.  If you like you can also
change the main text of the program very easily, all you need to do is
edit what the 4 variables found at the begining of the program.
 
I'm not the best doc writer in the world so If someone wants to rewright
this doc file and send it to me on my bbs then I will be happy to include
it in my next release. 
 
If you would like a fully documented version of the code leave me a
message on my BBS and I'll be glad to get it to you.


History:
	1.00	Didn't like the phone checkers out there so I wrote my own
	1.01f	On security breach didn't drop user. (SQUASHED!)
	1.02	Made it compatible with C-Net v1.96
	1.03d	Made program compatible through 1.98o
	1.04	Fixed user drop, bug in C-Net 1.98o. 1.04 is for C-Net
		1.98- ONLY. Will not work with older versions of C-Net
        1.13f	Found a couple of major bugs in the script. SQUASHED!
	1.15k	Added full error checking. Now notifies the sussop if a
		users account info is not correct.
	1.17l	Made it prettier.
	1.18p	Added more C-Net 2.0 support. Now notifies a user of an
		illegial login attemp at next logon.
	1.20	Decided that to implement some of the stuff people seemed
		be stealing my code for! (Please See Note at bottem of
		file.)
	2.5	Made a couple of MAJOR improvements! They system will now
		make a security check of a user.  If they have tryed to
		make an Illegial logon the system will keep checking them 
		untill the Sysop decideds to change it back for them. It no 
		longer just lets the user past your checktimes. 

 NOTE:
	I really don't care if anyone uses this code for there own use or
uses it as a basis for other utils you might want to right.. All I ask is
that you eather let me know or give me a little credit somewhere.
