It was a standard form on a web page with text fields. Beside each field was a red exclamation point. When you typed something...

I used to go there way back when dual 120, dual front 120 and top 120 mm blowholes where all the rage. They had the coolest blue anodized water blocks. And also red anodized stuff to I think.
