Unless there is anything specific/immediate you want changing, then you can start adding the software as when i change the layout/introduce more features it won't affect the database.

Just give me a shout before you start adding stuff though so i can reset the database.

I will do some more work on it tomorrow hopefully.

Any chance of getting proper accounts? I.e. one for me and one for jbloggs?

Conrad11 · 11 Oct 2007 at 14:58

Do you need separate accounts - although its doable?

But yeah catch me on MSN and ill sort it out.

MarcLister · 11 Oct 2007 at 17:09

Nah we probably don't need them It's what we want, us greedy gets.

Conrad11 · 13 Oct 2007 at 13:38

I should be online most of today up to around 6-7ish, so come online to sort out accounts.

You may need a refresh!

Antivirus & Firewalls:

Agnitum Outpost Firewall

Ashampoo Firewall

Avast Antivirus

AVG Anti-Virus

Avira AntiVirus

BitDefender Free AntiVirus

ClamWin Free AntiVirus

Comodo Free Security Tools (Firewall, AntiVirus etc)

Any idea which is the best firewall? I've been using Zonealarm for the last few years but lately it's causing lots of problems everytime I update a program. Any suggestions? Fact, rumour, hearsay all accepted.

Conrad11 · 22 Oct 2007 at 11:19

If you are on XP, i'd strongly suggest Comodo Firewall.

Thanks.

For anyone that is wondering why the site hasn't gone live yet.

Its because we are moving is to MarcLister's server first.

Looking on their site, not yet, but you can pre-register so they'll inform you of when it is.

I used to be a ZoneAlarm mine like your goodself. Then I switched to Sunbelt Kerio. However EVERYONE kept mentioning Comodo. Gave it a try a few weeks ago and I'm sold.

Ah didn't see this. We are having a few problems with this because I've disabled/nLited out Remote Assistance from XP so this'll take longer.

If you want - we could do VOIP and ill tell you the instructions that way.

Means i can do something else whilst giving instructions (...no not what you were thinking

)

MarcLister · 24 Oct 2007 at 16:58

You dirty ma....oh OK.

I've got my mike ready. What VOIP client do you use? I've only ever borrowed my brother's Dutch friend's Ventrilo server.

Conrad11 · 24 Oct 2007 at 18:27

Well i have never done VOIP before. I was thinking the obvious (Skype) but if you wanna use something else that's fine. Catch me on msn. I may have status busy cause i am playing fm08
