Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Now on the subject of Chrome.

I usually find that Opera has those feature before FF or most anyone else does.
FF has always felt like an older version of Opera to me, with worse keyboard shortcuts.
Actually you can set what middle click does in preferences. In my case if you middle click a link. It opens that page in a...
Kind of, but it is not as easy to use, and it is not white-list based normally, but you can make it that way.
Basically you disable all scripting in the preferences. But if you have site you want to allow you can set preferences per individual sites. It is easier than it sounds.
Once you...
I actually like the x45 better than the x52 because of the way the rudder is setup, on the x45 it is a rocker switch located on the throttle that you operate with your two middle fingers. On the x52 they went with the rotating joystick, which I have never been comfortable with since I have a...
it is an Athalon 64 3200+ with a gig of ram, geforce 6800gt, several sata drives etc... really was built as a gaming rig a couple of years ago. I would get more folding done if it wasnt my only computer, since I use it for *everything*. So the gaming, porn downloads, web browsing etc... all eat...
