I'm getting some referals from a google group. They have put a full link to my site in a discussion thread - recommending my site very highly.

The thread has PR9

Will this improve my PR if I link to the tread.

Will Google mind, is it ethical?!

It wont help because google stops spiders in the Google group via the robots.txt

Yeah - that IS a wise move. They echo most of the newsgroups there and anyone who's been in a newsgroup for the past - oh - decade or so, know that about 80%(?) of the topics in USENET now are spam. That'd surely jam up the whole thing so that no matter what you typed into the search box at google, you'd find a site that promises to enlarge your manhood or shrink your body mass.
