VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Not that I know of, but lately you can count the half-life in hours...

Oh -- and if you have any Office products (Word, Excel, etc), while you're at Windows Update, make sure you click over to the Office Update tab and have your original install discs handy. There's a big slew of "you can take over somebody's entire system with gaping holes left in MS Word et al" patches today too...
