very kind of you

Also, while i do have control over certain aspects of the layout on this site, and the color schemes and themes, i simply don't have the time to implement such a feature. Even if someone else offered to "skin" the forum for me, i think i'd turn it down because it increases the maintenance on the site massively, and also trashes the upgrade path to an extent.

fair enough; it's your train-set!

As for usernames being red on blue, i have no idea why this is - i use IE7 on Windows and Firefox on Linux, and on neither of those systems are they red... do you have a color override setup in your browser by any chance?

no, I've tried Internet Exterminator too, and it's the same!?!?

Anyway, glad you're happy to find a british forum! There are others out there i believe, but not many that appear on google when you search for "hifi forum"!

Site Comments & Suggestions:: Norton
Or, alternatively, bin Norton and install ZoneAlarm and AVG.
Norton is a complete PITA.
It came pre-installed on my laptop, free for X days; I had binned it within a week.
Quicker bootup, too. Norton seems to hog so many resources.
YUK!

This is the discussion thread for the news article entitled "Recent Site Outages and Downtime - 9 August - 11 August".

As you may know, hififorum went offline from 9 August 2006 until 11 August for the reasons described in the above news article.

I have attached two images to this post; one showing the page exactly as it was shortly after the server was hacked (hififorumHacked.jpg), and another showing Google's translation of the text from Arabic into English (hififorumHackedTranslated.jpg).

you may be interested to know that since this last outage, i have moved hififorum away from it's old web host.

We are now being hosted elsewhere, on what should hopefully be a much faster, and more reliable server

So far, so good, anyway
