Awwww, apparently not...
Oi Cep! I just bought myself a glowing name from the forum shop (a nice fuchsia pink) and it's not showing up.

Aha, it doesn't work in Mozilla, that's why I couldn't see it. But at work I use IE where it shows up fine.
This is a curiousity thing sorry...
Where is the forum shop?
If Microsoft would get a handle on some of the shoddy coding that allows so many virus problems, I'd never have a problem with it. I use Modzilla for my Email because I won't touch Outlook Express.
And you never should use Outlook or any other program that downloads email to your computer....online web based email is the safest bet!
The main problem with Microsoft products being shoddy is nothing to do with their software its that they rush through implementation which leaevs many backdoors and holes in the code that allow viruses (once downloaded) worms or trojans (once executed on downloaded email eg. Outlook) that they can work there way through the system.
However as long as you use your intelligence and,
1. Install a Firewall that is setup correctly
2. Have anti-virus software which scans & updates on a regular basis
3. Never open emails or attachments from people you do not know.
4. Never use a non-web based email system like Outlook, Pegasus.
5. Keep your system up to date with any new patches.
You should be completely fine, especially more so if you run your connection through a router box.

Even using Mozilla I got to see the window with the colours.... I think I must have anyway, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to choose one.
I dont use Mozilla sorry.
Have no idea why it wont let me see the colours.
Will keep trying in the hope it maybe be nice to me.
I have deleted cookies etc so that s not the issue
Hmmm have you disabled popups or do you have a pop blocker? Remember its best to set this site as a trusted site so that any auto-forwards, popups and scripts will work without your browser blocking them.
As you can see problem solved.
It seems somehow this was no longer a trusted site.
