What's the deal with 4edgetalk? I went there to see what's new and in the discussion area, there's NO TOPICS!! It went belly up a while ago, and I would hate to imaging that happened again, but it looks that way!!
The classifieds and the gallery appear to be in tact, but not the discussion area!

It's been that way since I checked it yesterday evening. Looks like maybe they didn't get rid of the virus that got planted there.

The things that happen when I go on vacation.
Gary is aware of it and has contacted the IP.

Hey Glenn, can you reassure us that it was backed up? Thanks

Yesterday it would not accept a post. Now there is 1 message and a couple of replys in the Discussion forum, but when I tried to post It told me my name or password was wrong. HMMMMMM

Yup .... I think it's better just to wait until Gary or Glenn tells us it's okay to post again.
My virus filter has caught about 15 SoBig worms today alone ..... and some of the senders are 4EdgeTalk members. Just got one from Scott Pagan.
One piece of damage this virus will cause, for those who aren't careful, will be to cause otherwise legitimate senders of email to be blocked by the filter in the future.

sorry Fred. i don't use any type of address book on the computer, so i don't know how it's being circulated. i have updated everything (anti-virus, OS, etc.) and still being bombarded by the bogus emails. on an average day i'll get less than 10 emails a day at my workstation today it's 115 (so far). lucky for my shop it's behind a firewall with server-side antivirus. i only get a header message that NAV caught the infected email.
