Maybe this is an opportune moment to remind everyone to keep your computer security up to scratch (head over to the techie board if you're not sure how). These kinds of attacks (DDOS) are achieved by making use of everyday users' (like you and me) PCs that have been infected with virus or spyware and then using the power of thousands (or lots more) PCs at once without the PC owners knowledge. Although making sure all MSE members' PCs are clean it may not stop it happening again at least we can make sure we're not actually part of the problem in DDOS attacks (and spamming as well for that matter).
Maybe a reminder on general computer security and windows critical updates in the next newsletter would be productive and the best direct action we can all take in helping prevent this kind of criminal activity."She is quite the oddball. Did you notice how she didn't even get excited when she saw this original ZX-81?"

Fabulous to see the site & the forums back again. You will not believe how much you were missed! Thanks tech peeps for working non stop to bring back the site - I'd buy you all a drink if I worked near you
It's just like the song says "You don't know what you've got 'til it's gone!"
If there is anything we can do then just yell out & I'm sure you'll have an MSEarmy reading, waiting & willing to lend a hand!Sad because you don't know what to do? :sad: Comping question? Take a look in the Comping Guide to find out
