I am sorry to hear this, Rich. I have visited this location last time, according to my Compass (a bookmark organizer), on 03-04-17 at 22:52:44. Haven't experienced anything similar. Obviously, the times change, and this site is not any more for recommendation. I use small part of its content for making a cookie file for TB, but am also yesterday informed that now one could find (at the Shakespearian section) the "f- words" and "ah- words" and even some "worse combinations" (since it works as a random machine, and it seems someone feed it badly). These also are the things I couldn't recommend on any TB list, although "ah- words" are not known to me, in this sense. The curses I harvested in that time are quite sappy, and gorgeous, but are not of the sort described above. I hope that you could get rid of this "Winad Client" easily. If not, knowing that it is sort of a "client", you would have to leave the Winblows and restart in MS-DOS, in order to delete the folder content. I would do a Registry cleaning too (I use RegCleaner for this). I also have unchecked in IE "Install on demand", if it helps in situations when an *offer* is given to the user, so it can be flipped back. If it still somehow installs, than it is really bad. Sorry again, it was a fine and pretty funny site once. - -- Mica PGP key uploaded at: <http://pgp.mit.edu/> once just before breakfast [Earth LOG: 11 day(s) since v3.0 unleashing] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQFBRKNA9q62QPd3XuIRAucZAJ9ggR1AV/lfDqmELM3uQ/UcXEbpyQCeLfbM h5OK7cZuaC4RfQfox5eGM64= =YuKy -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.00.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
