  1. Yesterday, thanks to Stu giving me a very dodgy link looking for a File Transfer Protocol program I ended up getting about a dozen trojans on my computer. Norton did its best to deal with them but the sheer volume of warning messages due to scanning emails that were being sent due to an almost certainly linked, worm infection, meant that I had no real choice but to close the thing off at the power and diconnect the net.

    Fearing the worst I closed the machine down and initiated a system restore.

    5 attempts and 4 and a half hours later(!), it finally got through to my desktop, where Norton was reporting another Trojan (the Bloodhound.W32.EP one to be specific) had been found. Sadly Norton couldn't remove it but a scan would let me quarantine the 3 buggerated files that were infected.

    This morning I've just got round to reinstalling broadband as the drivers & settings went with the system restore.

    Basically, just wanted to warn you guys about the virus...and call Stu an arsehole. :P

  2. What is this playoff cr*p. Are Morton trying to buy promotion?

    1st in div 2 gets promoted automatically

    2nd, 3rd & 4th go into the playoffs, along with the 9th placed side in div 1 (no longer 2 automatic relegation spots, just the bottom)

    2nd plays 3rd and div 1's 9th plays 4th. Both of these ties are over 2 legs. Then the winners meet (again over 2 legs iirc) to decide who plays in the 1st and who's in the 2nd.

    Same arrangement between divs 2&3.

  3. Not as good as Substance, but then what is?

    Bought Substance earlier this year, Gweg. Was gonnae get Waiting for the Sirens Call (or whatever that new one of theirs was called) but decided on that instead as it was being sold for a tenner in HMV.

    After taking it back twice due to faulty discs I finally got a decent copy...quality stuff. B)

    What others of theirs are worth getting - I'll add them to the list....

  4. 4. Minimum/Maximum – Kraftwerk – quiet. Genius at work.

    Gweg, was talking to SPS in the Mallard pre-match. Subject of music came up and I remarked to him how similar the tunes of Kraftwerk's Computer Love & Coldplay's new single (Talk - from the X&Y album) are to each other after watching Coldplay perform said single on Jonny Woss last night. :blink:

    I'm sure you'd have some thoughts on the matter.....................

  5. if the image is sourced from the internet its no use, as thats low resolutions, thats my problem. I need originals to either scan etc..or if someone had taken an image on their digi camera I could use. If i could source from the internet it would be no bother.

    Yeah...trying to think. I think that was prolly from the net. Pity I never kept the original I was sent years ago.

    Ah well, worth a try.............

  6. Blueprints of new stadium.....

    213773[/snapback]

    Not the greatest picture quality in the world (prolly not good enough actually) but hope this can be of some use?

    Don't have a good one of any of the rest I'm afraid.......

  7. National Indoor Arena - here in Brum. Not a patch on Love Street, mind.

    213640[/snapback]

    Been there once, back in 2001...not too shabby.

    My top 5 would be pretty disappointing, top 1 aside............

    1. Love St

    2. Hampden

    3. Parkhead

    4. Pride Park (Derby, not for a game tho, just a look)

    5. Easter Road

    Would the Royal Albert Hall count? :unsure:

  8. It's interesting to see the variation of houses with Xmas decorations in our street. We don't have anything other than a wreath outside the door, but most have a modest strip of lights just under the roof or something.

    Thankfully no-one with ultra mental decorations here (at least not that I know of), but there's one not far from Love St isn't there, going towards the airport in the flats there......see it at night, one window lit up like it's Dunn Square with the rest around it being normal. :rolleyes:

  9. Still on my first motor - Mitsubishi Colt.

    My father had two Opel Mantas in his youth tho, gold & silver...before starting the family when he had to get a Volvo. :rolleyes:

    His boss had a sucession of Capris..........
