DJ,
I had no idea that a user could still register.
There is a wealth of info there that simply is available no where else.
I seriously doubt anyone "put the old forum database up".
Rather I suspect that when the forum was no longer being paid for, the "host" simply changed
the extension to .co and there it sits/sat awaiting payment.
I will, however, amend my links so that the "unknowing" will not "donate" to a "lost cause."
Thanks for the heads up,
Tom
