Emma Finally replayed to the legal advice I havde been given.

dear xxxxxx

We disagree with your interpretation. To confirm our position on
copyright, we consider that as a general proposition, by placing a
webpage on the internet, the website owner is granting an implied
licence to reproduce/copy. We believe that the taking of a temporary
copy for the purposes of Webwise will fall within that implied licence
and also believe in any event that the proposed operation of Webwise is
permitted under s.28A of Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. So,
there is no breach of copyright.

Head, and sand firmly stuck in place. This reply dispite the fact my site has a clear copyright notice on each and every page.

I had asked for a summery of the legal advice, for my solicitor, but this has not been forthcoming. I doubt it even exists.
