It was just a picture that said "This Thread Sucks" or something like that, posted by a Mr. Howes. Not sure how it wound up being all this. :?:

It was a JPEG posted by Kenny. There is a thread on the board where the mechanics of how hackers might attach a virus were briefly mentioned Werner. It has been dealt with in any event.

I know how it works, Brian - I use FF 10 and my Win 7 has been patched against the JPEG attacks, no worries!

This thread started as some form of humour, but it's like a toilet stall now with unrelated useless comments :lol:

Some threads detour all over the place and in some instances we might step in and steer them back on course. This one got a life of its own unfortunately and the reason it was initiated in the first place is now just a distant memory.

can i just derail this derailed thread to say that i randomly picked up an old Orange Dod 210 Fet preamp pedal for the cheap hell of it, tried it and it's great!

looks like this:

Not even an off switch. Gives you tons of extra volume should you want it, but it's 8 (EIGHT) little components do something. A tiny bit of dirty, a bit of compression. Especially on my normally drab neck HB-1 i had great fun widdling away. i hooked it to a little passive loop pedal so i can turn it off an on.

Feel free to delete this/move it somewhere else. i didn't know where to post it :)

It would get the most exposure in a new thread under Forum 51. viewforum.php?f=44

I thought that once... a LONG time ago... Then I found out there's no way you'll ever see everything, things can always get weirder...

I think the colour selections are fine, keep in mind RIC is a buisness, not a company to serve everyone. :mrgreen:

Depending on just why, that might be less desirable than one might initially think...
