Thomas, can you clarify the source of this? I was unable to find it
today. I found quite a bit of information on ad-blocking but nothing
that worked well on my system. I could not find any site called
www.panicworks.com

Enhancements (might be

Please respond to

Discussion
Sorry about commenting on this issue so late. I've been away from reading
the list and I'm just now trying to catch up. I was one of the list
members
that supported the resource site idea and would like to have it active, if
possible.
It seems that the main complaint about the site is the banner ads, I'd
suggest that if you're using a Windows OS (not sure about the existence of
this application type for other platforms, but I'd guess that they exist)
then you should just download and install one of the many ad blocker
applications. I've installed the www.panicworks.com freeware app and it
works great. No banner ads at all when browsing the site.
I hope that this helps and I hope that the board can move to an active
state
again. Actually, I'm surprised that no one else tried this before now.
(If,
in fact, no one has already!) 8>P

I too was a bit disappointed with all those casinos and have given up. We
have some politics in our enterprise, and we are not allowed to display
such
things.
Sorry.
