    Im really putting myself out on a limb here and maby im going to word this all the wrong way. But i will put this as best i know how to. I spent several hours surfing the www tonight (withdrawel after being offline for 48 hours :) ) But i have noticed that a LOAD of people that have have offered to link IOFFL to their Home page or whatever have just done that.... But they have not updated them since that. Hell im not going to name names or give URL's etc. All im going to say is why stop there ? At the risk of sounding terrible if ye took the time to do it why not keep it up-to-date ? /Me gets an armour plated ass shield.

    PS Im in trouble again right ?

    Ah - that's an old URL. Whatever search engine you were using obviously hasn't updated our entry in it's database in a while.

    I'll probably just put a redirector at that URL next time I get a chance anyway.

    cheers,

    usually when i get that 404 error page i look for the link that says "contact network settings" that usually works

    I dont know how it works or if it will work all the time but sometimes it just does

    ah the mysteries of the web ...
