Okay,
Code has been tweaked at the moment so that AJOR Silver and Gold users can use an Adblock without the warning (or I like to call it my STICK)

We are introducing some more code changes so that this process can be automated and some better options to support the site

The fact is that I have Kaspersky anti virus, AntiMalware Bytes anti malware and a pop up blocker and I will not turn ANY of them off for ANYONE.
If you were at all aware of the inconvenience, time, cost and unbelievable embarrassment caused to me by people with non malicious AND malicious intent you would understand why.

If it comes to a choice between my safety measures and this site you loose. Regards Brockie.
More security than ASIO !
You must be super important or be doing stuff that you dont want others finding out about.

Actually no. I just seemed to end up with malicious software dumped on my computer. Hijackers and the kind that take you from what you are doing online. I once ordered an item on Ebay twice because I was taken away with a crucial button push. The worst though was when some English schoolboy (I have his email address) somehow cracked my email and sent all my contacts, including people I do business with and distant relatives, some of whom I have never met, all sorts of links over several days e.g. where to buy your viagra and cialis and other messages in my name.
Paranoid? I am now thanks.
Laugh if you like - but just imagine if you had not cleaned out your contacts list for years.

My mates would be happy to know where to easily get that stuff.
Anyway, I trust this site and have tweaked my Ad Block now to allow for this site.

that's why I do not open e mails up , that is why I use a program to open my e mails that is Linux based , that is why I use mixed up passwords and not ones related to my life , pets , birth dates, or anything of such .
