There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

If members are having trouble opening .RAR files, I would recommend d/ling the following freeware program from a trusted source:
7-ZIPFile Manager
It opens ANYTHING and works hand-in-hand with most antivirus / anti-malware programs for your protection.

Thank you for the info SC!
At any rate, in order to avoid future problems, could a sort of standard be maintained in uploading files? Please?
For example, using a compressing software which is only available as a trial version, or must be purchased, goes against the concept of freeware in my opinion.
Or writing install instructions in formats other than a *.txt file, stating that "if a computer can't handle the *.pdf format, it can't handle the upload", sounds a bit strange to me....
Thank you.
Cheers!
