Default Beware, The CF is...

..F-Up

My Lap Top is acting up all weird and the CF is out of commission. Looks like somebody with hacking skills is getting their groove on.

Initially I thought it was the new Firefox but, Safari is not accessing the CF now either.

Last time this happened few members' PC crashed.

good point just like buying the first production year, a No-No.

BTW and outside this forum, yesterday I stopped by a Ford dealer to look at the new Focus and it is a nice car. As few of you know, my DD is a 03 Focus 2.3 L with 202,000 miles and it keeps going.

Beta is before we test it. Once released it's still under real world testing. Always run the next to latest is my rule.

I've had not problems and I'm using FF 4.x, but I have a No Script add-on and an Ad Blocker installed. That site has so many ads, and if they don't load or get stuck, you have to wait a long time before the page comes up.

My son had an '10 and really liked it. He likes Rangers even better and traded it for a '11 Ranger. The Focus served him well while he had it though.

We've had the Focus in the rental fleet since they were introduced. Damn near indestructable, never give us any trouble. The only time I see them out of service is glass or tires.

Haven't been able to get on CF either - using IE 8 - prior to me not getting on several members commented they couldn't either.

V-bulletin is the worse forum software out there. I use an open source for our corvette group and it works terrific.
