Well....into the frying pan and into the fire. I got my ISP connection back late last night but proceeded to download a beta demo of a PC game (Age of Wonders II) that then proceeded to complete trash my system. Long story short.... I am having to buy a new hard-drive (as there is also a chance it just plain quit on me) and reintall my operating system, programs, etc.

Luckily I have a second machine (the one I am on now). But all my FTP and email were on the other machine so please note the following.

FOR RECENT CONTRIBUTION OR REQUESTS....
I may not be back up and running till Monday or Tuesday. Plus I will be gone for AMPS. Please be patient if you had submitted content or made requests for password issues or other support related problems.

Thanks,
Jim
