mouseflakes Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Thanks Dave. When I find the forum inaccessible it always reminds me just how much I take your efforts for granted and drives me to click the 'Donate' button.

daveb47 Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 Very much many thanks, Dave! BTW notifications still link to autoshite.info. Probably just a transitional thing but thought you might want to be aware.You might need to clear your dns cache.Google it as it is diferent depending on yor o.s./browser. Still have problem with ⣠instead of £,its a content encoding error,but will be a pain to diagnose..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 The target of the link is still autoshite.info, but only in the most recent notification. Here's a screenshot. The rest point to autoshite.com. Like I say, probably just a transitional thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
