I'm currently using SpySweeper for ad and spyware, and AVI for my anti virus, which has yet to fail me. Some of those people we once knew Mike has found someone to send me mutiple virus' aday, and not ONE has got through to me.

Valderra, did you click the update definitions tab on SpyBot? If not do it and update your defs and run it again, they are always usually adding defs every couple weeks. Treat it like your anti virus software, check for updates weekly Glad that you got rid of it though. Just keep it up to date and you not have to worry about it ever again No, I didn´t update. It said only to update the Detection updates if I don´t want to use the update function integrated into Spybot. I don´t seem to find the integrated one but there is an "Check for Updates" button and I pressed it and there are no new updates at the mo. So I guess I have the latest version. Anyway, you are right, I will make sure that I get the updates at least once a week. Thanks for the advise Voyager.

I know its a rant, but god damn its ridicoulous what this site goes through. I spent 5 minutes hitting reload to type that post and I know I'm not the only one who feels this way either.

LOL I am ranting as well - loudly here in front of my laptop. I think that if there are too many people on board then perhaps whatshisname should only allow a certain amount of boards on each server to be used.

although it gets frustrating I do tend to look at it from their point of view too. for one you only get this problem during peak times and they don't overload the servers...i remember Pat or ryan just a week or so ago saying one of the servers was only half full or something. they have to allow so many sites on a certain board in order to maximize the money they make off the ads and everything else.....if they cut down on the number of boards per server then they have to increase the numbers of servers they have to hold the current amount of boards...and that increases their monthly cost to run proboards and they make less money. in the end Pat is in this to make money....this is what he does for a living...and i understand what he needs to do to maximize his money....i would probably do it too. so in the end....as bad as it is....i look at it this way....i only see the problem for about 3 hours a day....the rest of the time the site runs perfect....I guess i am willing to cut them a little slack for now and be ok with it....as long as it doesnt get worse....(OK....I am ready for the yelling now about "they need to care more about the customer" "they already make enough money" and whatever else is coming....LOL)

Temporal Reality is loading fast/normal now. A few weeks back when this thread was created, it would hardley load at all due to a server problem. Since then a 'Too Manny Connections' notice was added to prevent site loads when the server got to busy, to prevent an overload. Right now it is 6 AM my time, and 3 AM Calfornia time, where the servers are located. These are pretty dead hours for server activity, it is aprox. 9 hours from now when American schools begin letting out, and UK evenings that the servers get busy, the peak time, and that is when the 'Too Many Connections' message begins to appear, however, it hasent been so bad as og late
