   Btw as a side note Firefox 3.5 is out I still don’t have a link but I got Final version around 10 in the morning (GMT Time)
   Hmm.. I got it from reliable source and You can get English version here:
   http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/products/download.html?product=firefox-3.5&os=win&lang=en-US
   Someone will post an article on that sooner or later today.
   PS. did You modify scripts so they keep comments as session variables? In case of spam filter making us go back in history? Just curious.

   Hi Seb!
   About Firefox - yes fake91 already made it clear.
   About script modifications : no , at least for the moment.
   What is the problem ?
   We would rather prefer to not verify the spam bin, seeing the amount of daily spams.
   So the copy-paste method remains the best one. It’s like you’ve had a captcha step but you must use ctrl+C.
   Sorry!Regards!

   Hi guys,

   I think a lot of people are going to be disappointed about DriverMax XXXX
   Hopefully The suggested replacement will do the trick.

   You have to wonder what is in the head’s of some marketing people.

   Take care and have a good day.

   Hi guys,

   I was trying to take a look at the Freewaregenious article but all I got was a blank page. I then tried going to http://www.freewaregenious.com and got what I think is a domain parking page. I guess Freewaregenious has given up the ghost.

   Take care and have a good day.

    hum… I clicked without paying attention and I’m not so sure it was a great idea. What this site is supposed to be is quite unclear…

    Haven’t you heard about PirateBay ?

    The Pirate Bay is the world’s largest bittorrent tracker.

    The site was sold for $ 8 mil

    Hi!
    You can look at program list on XXXXX. It contains great software like Firefox, Thunderbird, TrueCrypt, 7-ZIP, Blender 3D, Eraser, FileZilla, Gimp, Inkscape, KeePass, Launchy, MySQL, NetBeans IDE, OpenOffice.org, Virtual Dub, VLC Media Player etc. I haven’t downloaded it but looking at the list I think it contains all the best from open source software.

    2 points
    … And they charge you for the open source softwares?
    Just because they have bundled them!
    Or maybe I’m missing something. Sorry if this is the case.

    I do not know exactly how I can participate in this thread/article but I have few things to share which many people do not know.
    1: NetVeda Safety.Net is a free firewall which is far better than any other paid firewall software. I am using it on XP Pro. It can be found here:
    http://www.netveda.com/downloads/index.htm
    2: Recently, you shared Babylon Dictionary promo, I think this promo is over now, and I found a good alternative of it called Lingoes. Here is the article which I read:

    I am using Lingoes instead of Babylon. It is much better, I think.
