So, after 1 week of vigilance and extended time spent on deleting all suspect intrusions into the Forum, I think we may be able to say that the ban on Outside Links in your posts can be lifted.

However, please don't take this as a free for all for you to load every post with links to outside web sources, as the threat of a Virus being downloaded from ANY outside link IS STILL a threat.

The general T&C's request that you do not use Outside Website / Source Links in your posts, because of the threat not only to this Forum, but also to your own equipment.

If you really do want to direct people to an Outside Source via your post, far better that you write it out in plain text or provide a description and let people do their own search for it via their chosen Search Engine.


(The Forum is still receiving lots of Forum Registration Applications from the Middle East and S.E. Asia  on a daily basis, that are all checked out with 99% of them being proven to be extremely suspect).



Cheers,

Malcolm
