I thought that was just Ken's way of welcoming me back to SG....

Hey, FunK's back!! Shut down the server.... maybe he will go away...... :p
Simply run adaware, spybot, ZoneAlarm, HijackThis, AVG, update windows daily, have a router, don't open e-mail, turn off action scripting, don't use P2P networks, don't violate EULAs, and wear a condom to get Windows secured.

People say Linux is alot of work!

We need to make a list of everyones email and icq/aim/whatever handle and keep it on a different site. I'll donate some of my space for just that purpose.

You guys send me your ICQ, Aim, email, phone numbers, etc., in case it ever happens in the future...
I'll do that. &nbsp
I'd also be willing to host an SG info page if anyone wants it.... At least containing info on who to contact, etc, as I probably couldn't be a real source of news.

All this time I've never really collected email addresses of SGers -- just assuming PMs would always work. Hmmm. guess not. :o

And where was Burke's Speedguide Report when we needed it? :D

*LOL* I thought I was the only one getting ready to take a P*** on their ISP, because SG was our startpage and we didn't figure to check a different site first. I reconnected my DSL line a few times, reassigned LAN-IP's, etc. etc. before I finally checked a different site... :eek: .

FINALLY!!! whew!.. Never realized how hooked I was.. I was searching other forums all over the place trying to find out why SG was down.. Hell, I about drove by the tampa office just out of curiosity to see if there weren't some legal implications causing more serious issues.. :p You guys had me worried I was gonna have to change my start page for a few days there.. Good to see everything back up and normal. :D

Yeah I'm a SG addict myself. Sorry you had to deal with this whole mess Philip. I really appreciate the effort and time those involved put into this place. It's like the virtual island of misfit toys. ;) :D
