Re: Big Thread of Spam Bots

Definitely a spambot: http://www.stopforumspam.com/ipcheck/217.77.223.20 If I'm ever unsure I just type the username (or email/IP if it's a real line ball) followed by "stopforumspam" into Google. Generally if they are a bot, they will be in the stopforumspam.com database. I have deleted ...

Virtual Machine Question

Ok first off don't ask me why, but I want to be able to get windows 3.1 on the internet through virtual machine, not sure if it is possible, but I do understand I need to load a DOS driver if one is available. I am using Microsoft Virtual Machine, now I am silly to ask since I'm probably the only pe...

Re: Using Windows Keyboards - f functions, ctrl, logo, alt..

Now that there used to work in WinMX chatrooms, but I think they used a 3 digit number instead of 4...but interesting to say the least... If you look closely, you'll see that not all the codes I gave are 4 digits. There are two that have just 2 digits. If you are interested to know what the codes a...

Re: Browser Wars!

However, it hasn't been updated for FF 3.6.3. :( Lots of things weren't. Java handling in particular. 3.6.* is unstable for many users. I, amongst many, downgraded to 3.5.9 to wait for a fix. It is annoying. Especially as I always avoid FF beta versions for this reason (add-on updates not immediate...

Re: IE? No thanks! (And about time too!)

Indeed. Not that I support the idea, but the tides are turning that way for sure. Now back to IE 9, obviously synthetic tests don't really do the job, but if you run any of the HTML5 speed tests at the IE 9 testdrive site with other browsers they will work, but not nearly as fast, although I'm sure ...

Re: Big Thread of Spam Bots

I was being sarcastic there, but usually if I were to join a forum I would probably make a post, if not I probably joined and found I didn't like the site, in which case I probably wouldn't have joined in the first place, but then again cricketmx is the only forum that I am an active member of. Othe...

Re: IE? No thanks! (And about time too!)

if you have a video card it definitely will be for your benefit... Who doesn't? I guess you could argue that some machines don't have dedicated video cards and only feature integrated circuitry on the mother board that do the same thing but... why would you do that? Basically, everyone has one. So,...

Re: It's our 6th anniversary

You know I was 17 when I joined the forum, I'm turning 24 this year! Ahhhh.... still so young and impressionable. ;) Oh c'mon now a lot of people are impressionable, in fact a good deal of older folks (and trust me i know :wink: ) are easy to manipulate, most of customers we have are older, like 65...

Re: Browser Wars!

It wasn't so stable on mine the last time I tried it. But, that was a while back and I was already several versions of Kubuntu old at the time. I wonder when they'll have an official version...what's cool it seems that crhome (linux in general) runs much faster compared to the windows version... On...

Re: Microsoft Promoting Cricket

Sounds strange for me . Microsoft should be more concerned correcting the latest windows bugs rather than promoting cricket. Stressed out employees that are unhealthy often arent as productive compared to those who are healthy. Windows has many exploits and security vulnerabilities, most likely due...
