"Avsim is one of the largest sites serving the flight sim community. The publisher of a flight simulator site targeted by a hacker in May says it has presented a file of evidence to UK police identifying the perpetrator. Avsim said it had "incontrovertible evidence" about the hacker's identity. The attack wiped data held on two servers and "effectively destroyed" the site, which is still being rebuilt. The US firm said it expected the criminal complaint, filed with London police, to lead to the alleged hacker spending "time behind bars". "We will not name any names, but have incontrovertible evidence of the individual that performed the hack," said Tom Allensworth, the publisher and CEO of Avsim." --BBC World News America Read more >>>BBC World News<<<

Bout damn time you got some internet Jay. Glad to see ya back!

She needs this guy.... http://blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com/valleyfever/2008/12/tempe_docs_enter_record_books.php

No issues with IE8 or Firefox 3.5.2 for me. You may want to update your IE6 to IE7 or 8.....but many here would say skip that and just get Firefox, you won't be dissapointed. IE 6 is almost a DECADE old and Microshaft plans to end support for it in 2010, but trust me...they have already.....its called IE8

They need to expand in Indy and maintain them there.

Normally I would insert and Arkansas Joke....but I'll refrain. M

I'm sure Erik will check to see if its possible. If we did it before, I'm sure it is. For now, you can go to =1"]VIEW NEW CONTENT and it will show you all new content with new entries that you haven't seen. It is tabbed and you can switch between Blogs/Forums/Files/Gallery/etc.... Very nice feature. M

That's part of the problem with the PM/Conversation system. There are several places where you click on "SEND ME A MESSAGE" or you Click on the icon and you get 2 different results.....but when you hover over either of these, you will see the same link. Result #1= PM Lite Result #2= Full Messenger with Attachment ability. I like the PM Lite feature, but it should have a separate button for those that wish to use it, otherwise, when I want to send a PM or start a conversation, ALL links should go to the same place. M

Have you tried that? because that is not what I get. Clicking on the username takes me to their full profile. Clicking on the little icon gives me a small pop-up profile. Funny thing is the URL displayed when hovering over either one is the SAME link.

Congrats! What did you fly? 310, Seneca, F-14?

When you go to a members profile, and you click on "Send me a Message" you get a PM pop-up box, and you can not add an attachment. When your in the forums and you click on the you get a PM pop-up box, and you can not add an attachment. When you click on the little icon (and DAMN it's little)-->> <<-- next to their name in the forums to get the User Popup (there's no longer a drop down menu), and you click on the there, It take you to your messenger so you can start a conversation with the full use of an editor and attachment features. The PM pop-up box is like PM Lite. M

That is the RECENT GALLERY images..... It displays the last 6 entries to any gallery album.

About as funny as this:
