I plan to take the site down around midnight CST and should be able to have it back up by 1am CST.

We are several versions behind on the software so I want to get it up to date and add in the new version of the mods we run on it.

No new features are planned for the upgrade... and only a minor change to the default theme template is planned to get GB off my case...

Really, I couldn't get on. That message was lost to me--though you did have an appropriate msg saying what was going on.
We forgive you and thanks for the work.

Is the site slow, or is it my computer when I logged on? I seem to get hung up occasionally.

Ok, so it's just not me then. Are you gonna go over and slap Matt around a little until he gets things sped up? I'm not encouraging this of course, but am curious.

WOW, I never even noticed.  And I'm three hours behind you.  Meaning it happened at 9PM here.  I must have been watching TV.

A 'Veteran' -- whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve -- is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America,' for an amount of 'up to, and including his life.' That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country today who no longer understand that fact.

I can figure it out on my own computer. I don't know if I can help you or not but for anyone to be able to help you we would need to know what your operating system is. What I mean by that is is it Vista, Windows home, Windows office? They are all different when you have to fix things like this. Dale

I think AOL uses a modified IE browser which cookies would be in Tools> Internet Options> Privacy >Advanced. After you choose the cookie settings you want, click Ok there, hit the sites button and add gboreloaded.com to the address of site field, then click allow and Ok.

Concerning Firefox, I tried 3.5 and didn't like it either, I downloaded 2.0 and am real happy with it.
