Happy Birthday Wim Leers

Our leaders Birthday today!

Thanks for everything Wim!

New OS discussion forums added

We've added some new areas in our forums based on user feedback.
New section "OS discussions" and covers Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 (& R2) and the forthcoming Windows 8 & Windows Server 2012.
We didn't feel it necessary to include Windows 2000, XP or Vista as those operating systems are old and have rapidly waning support from both Microsoft and us.
Please feel free to stop by and voice your opinions.

New user registration requirements foil spammers!

Our founder Wim Leers has implemented a new user registration process and as a result our spambot registration count has dropped dramatically.
In the past, we were manually deleting between 20-30 spambot accounts per day.  Over the past weekend I've manually deleted 3.
Looks like we found a countermeasure that works. :)

66 blocked spammers since 2012-03-09 11:44:19
Last 24 hours: 10
Last 7 days: 66

So if you are a legitimate user with accessibility issues and are having problems with the new system, please send an email to the admin and we'll create an account manually for you.

Merry Christmas

A Merry Christmas and Prosperous New Year to all of our users.

A major thanks to all the programmers and contributors
for making our lives and jobs easier with both XP and W7.

Enjoy your family, children and friends. Eat lots of yummy turkey and potatoes.

If you must drive over Christmas please take care of yourselves and loved ones.

For all our users who have to work over the holiday season to keep us warm and
our lights working, many, many thanks.

Enjoy and see you all next year.

Forums reopened to new users...for now.

We've upgraded the forum software and migrated all the posts to the new site.
The change gives the forums a new look.  Some will love it, some will hate it.
Either way, it was necessary in order to combat the scourge of the internet...the spambots.

So now the forums have been reopened to new users.
Come on in! 

However, if the spambots are able to circumvent our countermeasures, then we'll be forced to relock the forums and use alternative measures for account creation.

There may be minor bugs that need fixing as a result of the migration.  Please let us know of any problems you find.
