  23. I have set up a ban filter to disallow registrations from gMail accounts. If you attempt to register with a gMail address you will be denied. If you are currently registered with a gMail account then you will be required to change the email on your next log in. gMail is by far the most used email service by spammers and I am tired of spam bots using gMail email address trying to register. Until Google finds a way to stop these spammers I saw that banning gMail was the only option to stop this. In the last 24 hours there were 4234 attempted user registrations. 3 were by actual users and the rest were by spam bots or spammers. Of those 4234 attempts 4129 were using gMail address. I have also banned Hotmail as it is also widely used by spammers. If this inconveniences any legitimate users I apologize.
  24. My USB disc comes up with the letter 'J'. Because I have references to it with a letter 'X' I want to change it and I do that in the Computer Management tool with the Disk Management utility. Computer - Right click - Computer Management Disk Manegement - Right-click the drive and then click Change Drive Letter and Paths Assigne a new letter Everything works fine but suddenly after a reboot Windows 8 loses the letter 'X' for this disc and assignes 'J' again. I have done so with this drive for years under Windows 7 without any problems. Any idea, please what the problem might be? Senki Alfonz View the full article
