Yes it is strange, but it didn't happen to you or me so only Jock
knows the circumstances. Don't you agree that when Brad wakes up, he
should investigate?

That seems strange.

All,

FYI-

Here is a URL for a company that does a 'friendly' attack on your computer to check it's internet security level. They 'probe' and 'attack' your computer via the internet using the same techniques that a 'hacker' would use to gain access to your computer. I read about them in this week's PC Magazine. They appear to be honest and above board.

grc.com!

Separately, I purchased and am running a security product called BlackIce. networkice.com It will detect any hacker 'probes' or 'attacks', build a log of them, and attempt to trace the attacker back to their home isp. BlackIce detected the 'probing and testing' from the guys above, so they actually were testing my computer to see if it was vulnerable to attack by hackers.

Will the new SI have the ability to track a stock on a particular thread for more than 3 months? Is there a special 'search engine' that could do this? Can I get this search engine as a plug in for the Market Gems thread for a surcharge? I am asking because I just did this with my own website for free by just 'indexing' 18 months of earnings plays through the "excite" search engine which comes with VRIO, my web host.. Maybe I should ask this as a PM but I thought maybe one of you techno gurus might have an idea.
