Not so much a problem as an annoyance - now I have the new Spybot S&D on guard in my tray it will point out a known threat on any news item I pick up on here.... (TargetNet) Just thought I would mention it - kinda ironic, huh? :p

I've not had any problems, in fact it has picked up a few significant things already!

:D

Yeah, I've gotten the same thing as well, from the latest Spybot. I guess this site is infecting us all! :p

errr... how come you guys are picking these things up? I'm using the latest update for it and I don't see anything pop up saying it's found something.
hm.. If this thing you're talking about is some sort of web bug, then I guess McAfee Internet Security has picked it up and blocked it before Spybot could do anything. :p

LOL I would assume it is just missing everything altogether.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
