pepsified thinker, Jeff is in the process of migrating all the user info to the new site. All you have to do, I think, is change your password. <p></p><i></i>

If you successfully convert to PHPbb, it should be simple to convert to SMF as there are tools available for this.<br><br>Here is the PHPbb security advisory list from Secunia..<br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://secunia.com/search/?search=phpbb">secunia.com/search/?search=phpbb</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><br>Compared to SMF...<br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://secunia.com/search/?search=SMF&w=0">secunia.com/search/?search=SMF&w=0</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><br>We are talking a ratio over time of hundreds of 'vulnerabilities' to one here and ultimately, a Forum such as this is ripe for "special" interest, if you know what I mean.<br><br>A little effort spent now may, in the end, save you much grief.<br><br>Best of luck friend....<br><br>~C<br><br>PS...please be sure to send my free TV -before- you make the move...Kthnx. <p></p><i></i>

Or you might try the Proxomitron...<br><br>Been using it for years, works very well with both IE and FF and is unobtrusive. The icon it uses is most appropriate for RI fans....<br><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v423/Offworld/Other/iProxo.gif" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.proxomitron.info/">www.proxomitron.info/</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><br>~C <p></p><i></i>

A little practical hint. Always use two browsers. Set up one to collect cookies, do java etc., and never use it (well, almost). Set up another, I like Firefox, with nothing enabled and pop ups blocked. This is the browser you should use to to do almost all your surfing. If you run across a point at which you want to post to something, and need stuff enabled, switch to the other browser.<br><br>If you do this, none of the nasties that are now a part of the board until full migration will appear unless reaching out to post. It is also a way to in effect register dissent in the ever widening world of sites that require push technologies. If I wanted shite pushed at me, I'd watch television.......<br><br>p.s. <br><br>empty those caches and cookies daily, so that the push/pull technologies also canot use you as a data point.... <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p216.ezboard.com/brigorousintuition.showUserPublicProfile?gid=5e6a>5E6A</A> at: 11/4/06 10:23 am<br></i>
