That´s strange. I´ve just noticed that the adds have changed back to google adds. Weren´t they with another company at one point?

Need path finding in your games? Have a look at the tutorials on www.telefonica.net/web2/paskyprog/.

I really haven't noticed a big diference. Though occasionally it slows down. And for those who can't find that FireFox Plugin (AdBlock)

AdBlock doesn't work on this site. Seems to be that the ads are changing addresses or something.

I found that this site got really slow in 2003 and I did a spyware sweep with Spybot. That got rid of all the slowness problems - evidently they were caused by spyware. I'd recommend trying that.

I run spyware all the time. I could try Hijack This. Haven't ran that for awhile.

Edit: Looks fairly Ok. Don't know all of the files that I am supposed to run anyway.
