You might find these useful: https://meta.superuser.com/q/5372/47225 https://meta.superuser.com/q/5329/47225 In situations like you describe above, the solutions are not bad in that they do attempt to answer the question. However their quality is dismal. Whenever I com across situations like this I do the following: 1. Add a comment stating that they should conform to the quailty and suggestions found in the appropriate post above. 2. (If I have the time) edit the post to match the suggested quality in the above posts. The reason for doing #2 is that some (maybe even most) users don't know how to really give a suggestion for software without simple doing a link only answer. Showing them by example, I've found to be the best way. Hopefully they see the edit and learn.
