Moderators

There are senior members on the forums who serve as Moderators. These volunteers keep the board organized and moving.
Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity)
Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum.
Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules.
Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted.
Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender.
Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration.


The Rules

1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement.

2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures.

3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum.

4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks.

5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement.

6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem.

7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required.

8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning.

9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online.

10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents.

11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection.

12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban.

13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts.

14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam.

15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues.

Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis.


Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community.

Default Norton Anti Virus - URGENT ATTENTION MESSAGE KEEPS APPEARING ???

I have Norton Internet Security 2004 on my pc. No problems in the first 3 months....now all of a sudden I keep seeing this message: SYSTEM STATUS: URGENT ATTENTION. Under Norton Anti Virus I see in red: ATTENTION. When I click on Norton Anti Virus to see what the problem is, it says: "Your virus definitions are out of date. Run LiveUpdate to get the latest virus definitions updates." I hit the RUN LIVEUPDATE BUTTON, and it runs and then tells me my updates are "currently up-to-date"......but......the URGENT ATTENTION message continues to appear....forever !! Can anyone out there help me with this annoying problem and tell me what I need to do to fix this problem ?? Thanks.

Your NIS is probably asking you to update to the 2005 version. I personally recommend that you ditch NIS and install Avast, which is free for home usage and a better antivirus IMO. http://www.avast.com/


Ciao

It is my understanding Norton AV offers 12 mths of free updates & virus definition updates. After that you need to re-register it. I suspect it probably will have started to affect you at the end of June or July right?! Just a guess anyway.

Now et voilà I will tend to disagree with you there they are both good AV software. I use them both sometimes Norton will detect a new virus first and sometimes Avast will it all depends on who discovered the virus first and how long it took them to get the definition out to others. And Norton is more user friendly than avast. But I do like them both.

You guys are using two AV at a time with real time protection? That must slow down the computer a lot Glad I don't have any on my macs.

Do what you want but I don't believe AV softwares should be paid or even need to re-register them. They are a necessary software on windows and too many people only know Norton while there are better free alternatives. Imagine what people could do saving that cash annually, party, everyone?

Good move! I've got Norton AV for mac OSX & 99% of definitions are for windows. lol The other 1% or less is for earlier mac viruses. None for mac osx. I only use NAV to manually check downld folders. I rarely use it.

et voilà why do you say that Avast is better than Norton the testing that I have done shows no difference in the two as far as detecting viruses and the Norton has a better user interface than Avast. When it comes to detecting spyware Norton beats Avast in that department. But that is what spyware detectors are for. Avast uses less memory than Norton about 50% no big deal LW uses as much as both combined. And yes on my main cpu I use both due to the fact it is the one I am on the p2p net. with most of the time and neither are 100% efficient all the time but if one misses something the other will catch it. No it doesn't slow my cpu down I have enough cpu and memory that it doesn't matter.On my wifes machine I use Norton, my laptop has Avast.
And I see you are a mac fan and we all know that the likelihood of getting a virus on mac is far less than if you are running windows. Due to the fact that not allot of hackers take the time to wright a virus for mac there is really no reason to, most of your corporations and people for that matter run windows not that windows is any better than mac. So I am guessing that this is a personal preference because in my test they both work about the same. The only difference I can find is one is a Cadillac and one is a Ford.

Nice party Lord looks like fun
