Just download mozilla for free, and import your bookmarks - no virus gets through. I was on IE before, but Mozilla doesn't get the virus.

with firefox we don't have problems, but i don't think the solution for people who don't have it is to download firefox.

Every time I open a page here it tries to load from sbwow.com

Are they the perpetrators?

I am not getting any problem right now -- am using IE.

I did notice the drop in users. I also remember having access problems about two weeks ago (that took days to clear up) as well as some in the last week that cleared up quickly.

Finally, I have used a wireless keyboard on my Wii before -- tested a Logitech model.

I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

Definitely something is up. I can't visit VGC from my home connection. I'm on my iPhone right now through the EDGE network. I thought it was just me, but the user count is the lowest its been in over 3 months .....
