my comment

doing a student's homework is going too far

(and typically, if the student does not acknowledge the help received,
 you are really an unintending participant in education fraud!)

The trick is always to help without actually providing the solution. 

I am not sure that the main CLA newsgroup is the right forum for this
in any case, maybe there should be a special subgroup.
