Forums are temporarily up? I will be the first to risk the security of my identity and personal information by posting here! WOOHOO!

Maybe, just maybe, those stupid hackers will leave the site alone this time.

I think I remember Chuck saying that he closed the forums down because of the possibility of someone hacking in, but no damage had actually been done. I wish the forums could stay up Sad

Hi Guys...the forum will stay open until another security vulnerability is detected that doesn't have a patch to upgrade it. That's what had happened this time. There had not been any hackers, this move was purely precautionary.

There is a patch and it has been installed, so here we are. So far I have not found any differences in the way it works.

Believe me, it is a relief to see this forum back on line. After reading some of the posts on other forums, it is nice to be able to post in one a bit more sane and civil (there are some blood thirsty people out there) Rolling Eyes

Thanks Chuck for the update and the correction to the site; I am sure we all appreciate it.

Oh no, now you've done it. They won't leave us alone now.

Welcome back to everyone. While I don't post here very often, I sure do enjoy stopping by and reading the terrific information. A pox on the hackers!
