Wise choice. Netscape has fallen so badly from the days when the internet first came out into the world. IIRC Netscape was leading Microsoft for a while when it came to the leading browsers in the mid 90sIts a shame they couldnt catch up to the competitors, the final nail in the coffin came when Firefox was released (which used a similar engine to Netscape - Mozilla).

Sonic Adventure 2 : Battle Its all about the Chao raising.
arnz replied to Dart-kun's topic in Computer Gaming
Any sonic game brings back nostalgia for me, I may not have played Sonic Adventure for ages, but for me, the originals.. Sonic 1, Sonic 2/3 and Sonic & Knuckles were pretty addictive. -
Do You Have Stairs In Your House? I am protected.
arnz replied to Velveteen's topic in General Discussion
1 house, 2 set of stairs. One of the sets are used to go upstairs to our bedrooms, bathrooms, etc, and the other set is out the front to go up to the front door. Yes, the house is on a hill, and is sorta sloped at the back. -

I dont know about the other countries, but down in Sydney, with Unleaded expected to hit $1.50 per litre sometime this week I was interested to see the average Australian fuel pricing graph for the last few decades. Source of Graph: Australian Automobile Association After looking at that, Its amazing how much the price rose.. also taking into consideration CPI and so forth. Either way, I dont tend to use the car much as I normally take PT transport those days, although I may drive the car to the nearest station, and then get the train in sometimes. I'd be wondering what is the story with fuel prices elsewhere or in your country?

While rocket launchers may look cool and all. Like the others, there are concerns about those that may use the resources of how to make a rocket for all the wrong reasons. Some things that are definite facts is that not using the rocket launcher properly and/or using it for the wrong reasons has the potential for disaster. Especially with the ongoing conflicts and affairs going on in the world.

Currently at the moment, uncensored nudity down under in Australia only occurs between the late hours and early morning. However, there are still the likes of people who wants it banned all-around. Personally, I dont mind it its a good looking lady (like any other guy).. but I wont go as far as saying to display it at other times (due to school kids, children, and so forth) But at other hours, all I can say is if you dont like it! change the channel!What are your thoughts?.. try and think with your head on your shoulders..

Alternative To Ms Paint lol a really good Alternative To Ms Paint
arnz replied to grimmy's topic in Science and Technology
Paint Shop Pro would be a good alternative if Photoshop isnt installed on a particular computer, otherwise I just use Photoshop. -
As an Australian.. I barely watch the two sports since Australian Rules Football and Rugby League dominate the sporting scene in the winter. But in general, many supporters tend to jump on the bandwagon when a major event of a "minor" sport in their country happens... ie down here, not much people watch soccer, yet the World Cup comes around and a lot of people watch it only because Australia made the final 32 (for the 2nd time in 32 years of trying)..

Classic.. Thats a lot of flavours, especially those that are chocolate themed, ie Chocolate orange, chocolate cookie and so forth. Wow.. even Sambucca and beer (root beer) ones too. I wouldnt mind getting passionfruit though.

It'll be difficult to access the IPB SQL database those days considering IPB hasnt been providing the installation files for a while. Also keeping in mind those that may have licenses or dont.

Rush Hour 1 + 2.. Chris Rock, Jackie Chan.. The original was a definite classic, especially with the 2 having to sort out their cultural differences in the USA.The sequel was similar, situations reversed in Hong Kong and getting stuck in a scam case. But both had their funny moments.

Link to the rest of the article - http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ All I can say after reading this article is just wow.. WTF, and many shocks rolled into one. She aint fully development, still only a girl and there is still the possibility that some sicko may have raped her. This is indeed scary, she could be a very young grandmother as soon as many ppl think if the issues behind this aint fixed imo.

Do You Believe In Psychologic Tests? online tests about your personality
arnz replied to andres's topic in General Discussion
They are indeed fun after a while. But it's questionable whether if its real or not. Personally I dont trust many of those psychologic tests, for example, whether if there's a "connection".. I dont really know there and in some cases doesnt give a true reflection of what may happen. -
Over the years of chat or posting on message boards, I've noticed that some people across the boards and rooms have a tendancy to use the love and long term relationship and in rare cases marriage without actually meeting.So my debate is it possible for a particular couple to plan a lifetime commitment if they havent met yet, and what if they meet and they have nothing (in common or other things). As many of us have found, what happens online and on the phone is really quite different to real life. Pretty much most of the time.

The spam in my inbox isnt that bad, but still the spam email still usually come into the spam box (on gmail). But I agree, especially in the old days on hotmail when theres a "unsubscribe" button. It only gives the spammer the signal to spam that unsuspecting owner's inbox even more.From what I understand on hotmail those days, the filters usually direct a large amount of junk to the junk mail box, although it requires checking in case of a important email heading there sometimes.

Due to work and other reasons, I was unable to use my site, and for a while my credits did fall to a point where the site got suspended. My hosting account is still suspended despite that I have since got my credits up to 14, but its now currently 8.74 at the time of the writing this post. The URL is at http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ I feel I wont be needing hosting for a while, although I may be active on the boards from time to time. Cheers.

I've seen this posted before on various other boards. But seriously, whats the point of getting a email address that long, especially if its a close friend or business partner... oh hold up, not finished.. not finished writing it yet.. as you're writing down 'someemailaddress@abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyblahblahblah.com'.

I saw parts of the match, and from what I can see, Italy really could win the whole thing now. This is despite the controversial Final 16 match against the Aussies. The handful of true Australian soccer fanatics down (i dunno about the many bandwagon jumpers) here are muttering what could have been.

Personally for me IPB, although it does seem to "cost" money to obtain legally. Although there are "free" versions of IPB.. ie InvisionFree, and InvisionPlus, although the former seems to have its search functions limited. InvisionPlus however still full search capabilities, although a more frustrating board address than what InvisionFree issues to board owners.

Partially true, but I'm pretty much laid back and a bit more shy when I'm off the internet getting alife . But yeah, I'm one that tends to stick in the background rather than be the life of the party. Although I do speak up if need be.

I do not own both of the websites I'm about mention below, but I'm a part of the staff on those sites. Both of them are forum/community type sites. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ - Australian sports discussion forum http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ - Popular 18+ Chat Site

I hadnt had extreme situations like that happen to me yet.. had minor ones though. But heard a lot of stories about customers from hell and so forth.. There has been stories of a few that ended up degenerating to threats, but many of the agressors leave before the coppers can be called.

All I can say, being an Australian citizen is that some incident of the sort was bound to happen considering the booze, and so forth. But I wont go into much detail there. This seasons mob was also the youngest with many under 25, but considering the rumours of the show being axed. IMO, it should've been axed 2 years ago.. when Trevor won it.. Its better ending a show on a high, rather than suddenly ending under controversial circumstances.

All I can say is that Australian School hadnt had to resort to using metal detectors and sniffer dogs yet... Ok maybe occasionally at the schools in the rougher suburbs.
