You bet me to it... I have no clue/idea what a "soyware bill" is?

from Google...

Did you mean: "spyware bill"

No standard web pages containing all your search terms were found.

Your search - "soyware bill" - did not match any documents.

OK... that is why I didn't "see" the first post.

Anyway, I sure hope these type of bills (from any state/country) will at least provide some "standard" definitions.
