I have just sent the following email to the "General Stuff" and "Webmaster" email addresses which you can find on the contact page. I would appreciate it if others will do the same.
Subject: Reporting BeBits abuse (Windows software)
Dear folks at BeBits,
While still enormously thankful for your continued support for "our" beloved OS, it has come to the attention of myself and several other frequent visitors that the latest fad is for developers of software for the Windows platform to add their software to BeBits.
With this email, I hope to convince you to take action by removing the software and deleting the perpetrators, and if possible by banning these users altogether.
An application named EiffelStudio has made its way into BeBits ( http://www.bebits.com/app/4557 ), but there is one user, a certain "bart", who consistently abuses BeBits for this purpose. His user page shows that so far, he has posted five non-BeOS applications on BeBits, of which three labeled with the company name OKSoft. Please see http://www.bebits.com/devprofile/5734 .
The current response from the frequent visitors is to keep giving bad ratings and reported bad links to the software, which from a consumer psychology standpoint (along with the aggrevation now associated to the brand) is damaging to the software's brand awareness. Talkback and said ratings have been removed for two of the pages by deleting the software page and posting a brand new page.
My hope is that other users will follow me in this example to ask you to take more permanent measures so that you will take action. Thank you in advance.
Sincerely,
[NAME]

After getting all the bad comments and votes, he deleted the original entry of his crap. What makes he think that we won't do the same with every entry he creates?

you didn't even selected PowerPC as cpu, which is likely wrong for a windows app, unless you use NT on PPC but this has been discontinued.
Please remove this.

is not what we want here.
I think you've been told before but you don't seem to want to understand.
This site is NOT for windows software. This site is about BeOS software.
This has nothing to do with the quality of the software you want to post, it is about the platform, which is *not* windows.
