I found this forum today while googling for info on eBates.com
There is a banner link prominately displayed on the search page for http://www.rebatestatus.com/
Evil or Very Mad

I regularly read the news over at [http://www.broadbandreports.com]BBR, my favorite site.
(I am also a member of a couple of DC teams there)

Suzi, you are amazing. You are performing a huge community service for so many. I am certain that forum participants here educate many end users to the reality of internet life.

A bit about me:
Combo self-taught/community college courses/hands-on IT education.

Single parent of a teenager who is soon to be 15. I have him trained as a decent PC tech so he can save the world a little bit too Wink

A refugee from San Francisco, living in the semi-rural woods in Lakeport, CA.

I am in desperate need of finding other geeks to hook up with here in Lake County... Cool

Hello kathologist,

Welcome to the group! My wife is a “Frisco” refugee, she hates that! Twisted Evil

“It’s San Francisco! NOT Frisco!” I like to tease and I do get hit a lot. Shocked

We live in Sonoma County outside Santa Rosa near Forestville. I’ve worked with PCs in one form or another for 20+ years. Currently I work in the TS department at Exchange Bank. It is a much nicer drive out your way then it is to San Francisco, so should you need any help we do like to get out once and a while.

With our Lord’s blessings,

Doug

Thanks for the warm welcome!

I know I will learn a lot here Surprised

Malware, Spyware, crapware is a hot button issue with me.
Also evil EULA's. Have you heard of Ed Foster's Gripe Log? He rocks.

I would post a link, but I am not sure that is within the etiquette of this BB.

Hi kathologist,

With our Lord's blessings,

Doug
