We aren't taking it the wrong way. Be proactive, and tell the other poster that he's plagiarizing. I'm not sure what else you'd expect to happen, as it's such a trivial offence that I can't see what else you'd expect to happen.

You're right of course that when content from other sites is posted you have to include a reference from where you "borrowed" it.
For your kindly information take a look at date of post blogger(K Ganesh Kumar) it is "3 November 2010". and when I have written my answer it was "31 oct 2010".
it means he is also doing plagiarizing..

If sandeep got his answer form that blog and mentioned the link, then it is fine.
Manfed was implying this point only.
He was not indicating that you were plagiarizing too.
cheers,

Well, both the blog and Sandeep's reply were direct copy/paste-d versions of the OP's answer that I edited for grammar. Not sure if Sandeep directly took his reply or if he copied it from the blog. Once again I am just stating the facts here since my name was dragged into this discussion. I personally don't care at all if people copy/paste my replies. (although in this case, it is NOT my reply, I edited the OP's reply, so it was the OP"s answer that got plagiarized)

I did notice the date Ravi, I was not implying that you copied from there or did I say that?
Let's see, I'll reformulate my second statement a bit:
'You're right of course that when content from other sites is posted one has to include a reference from where the content was "borrowed".'
Cheers!

Geez, this never ends huh?
Alright, here's a date wise breakdown then:
(1) Oct 31, 2010 : OP posts a reply and Nish edits it for grammar/formatting.
(2) Nov 3, 2010 : K Ganesh Kumar copies OP's answer verbatim on his blog (no credit given).
(3) Jan 10, 2011: Sandeep copies either OP's reply or perhaps from the blog, I'd guess from OP's reply because he includes the footnote too which the blog guy did not copy.
Most ironically the answer is extremely basic and is something that anyone who's ever spent a day programming on Windows will know automatically.

That blog is also a plagiarizing of the OP's answer. So it seems, the blog guy copy/pasted the OP's answer, and Sandeep copy/pasted from the blog. Multiple levels of copy/paste-ing

I don't think this is really plagiarizing.
Yes you answered a similar question with the same answer, but can you really expect all of us to know you did?
If he found the answer by searching the forums here and seeing your answer he could have mentioned your post yes.
But if we have to remember every answer ever giving by every member just so we don't run the risk of plagiarizing someone then I'm afraid no answers will be given ever.
I does appear to be a exact copy paste from your answer so in my personal opinion he should have just linked to your post but isn't the main purpose of the forums & Q/A to answer questions?
Just my 2 cents, I'll let the powers that be decide

Yeah, since it was a letter by letter copy/paste, he should have just linked to the thread.
BTW I had wrongly assumed that the OP was saying I was involved and I also incorrectly assumed that it was my answer, since it showed my name too, albeit under the edited by column. I have quickly edited/corrected all my replies which must have seemed like utter nonsense to the poor OP

If you look at some of the bottom posts, you'll find that this thread has taken a turn for the emotional!

Ho!!! Thats some post... I was totally unaware of.
Firstly, I did respond back to you some 8 hours back, here[^].
Then, I just saw few comments right now and responded back again. You can check my answer/comment to your question raised: http://www.codeproject.com/Answers/144431/Application-to-be-started-at-startup.aspx?cmt=40585#answer5[^]
I had no clue that it could have hurt you/anyone so much! I can maximum apologize and delete my answer if that satisfies you. Though I had/have no intention to pick someone else work and show as mine.
I would appriciate, if you tell me also (directly) from next time if you have any issues with me.

Dude, you didn't do anything wrong
Sandeep has honestly apologized to you, so the best you can do is to accept his apology and move on.

The header says "It is not for programming or other questions."
