  1. The parking on that first left hand gradual bend can be dangerous at times, the way those youngun's horse their cars up that road.

    Get a speed trap set up there for a day or two!

    Same goes for the road leading from the ridge farm towards Nedderton. don't they realise there's speed limit

    (P.S. should this not be in TOTT?)

  2. The problem with the above is: Everyones kids are angels.

    My nephew is the best behaved kid i know. always helpful, and a general good lad.

    I had the opportunity to view his 'play' up the street, and i was appalled.

    As well as coughing his guts up trying to smoke, i also seen him practically bullied into taking a shot at the bus shelter, to try and break the window. Even though he refused several times, he finally gave in and picked up a rock. Obviously i stepped in at this point.

    Now he's confined to our street where we can keep an eye on him, but now he's bullied at school for being a "mummy's boy". No wonder he feels he has to be bad to fit in.

    How do you suggest that situation is delt with?

    I'm really interested in the answer, because now me and my sister are at a loss.

  3. and your point?

    Mypoint ( i thought was clear) was that others share your view... that supprisingly its quite a good program!:huh:
    but this one doesn't make stuff up like certain others! (avg, antivir etc!)
    Its not a case of 'making stuff up', more of errors in detection methods, and this WILL do the same at some point... just like the rest. so again, not lagging behind the pack
    there only pointing out security risks!
    Which is a good thing!

    Whats your point?:blink:

    the thing is its from microsoft, its free and it actually works! :D

    Surprising isnt it! :D

    i still agree with fourgee tho... its like selling a barrel full of holes then offering a free plugging up service. B)

  4. Other comments have also been positive, but most say its a lengthy process, depending on your computers spec's of course!

    As for finding files others miss, thats the same with every differing program, as they have differing databases, and differing uptake speeds when they find a problem.

    Also, some find things like the Ask! toolbar as a virus, just because it is bundled with other programs that dont always ask you if you would like it, whereas other ones simply overlook this, as a simple 'add-remove programs' visit gets rid of it.

    I've even seen one Anti-Virus spot an out-of-date Java instalation as a threat, which it is of course, but only from a certain point of view. It depends how particular you want it to be. Remember, there are alot of false-positives floating around too, so are you sure what it found is actually malicious? ;)

  5. well, i use the quick reply box, and it does it every time for me.

    Seems daft to have a general setting set to no email replies, then a post specific one set to send them! :blink:

    i personally think the general setting should be for email replies (for newbies to get emails and for us to disable) and then the post specific one set to no replies unless ticked. if you know what i mean.

    either that or i can stop being lazy using the quick reply box B):P

  6. I'm having an annoying problem:

    even though i have these settings in place:

    i am still automatically subscribed to every thread i reply to, meaning i have to clear my watch lists to stop the email arriving each time i reply to a topic.

    is there something else (other than cancelling the redirect from the email account, or sending to junk) that i should be doing to stop the board notifying me of every reply ?
