    Don't know why the site is getting hijacked (it wasn't just a week ago),
    but Mike's last message to the group was that he wasn't going to be
    available for a long while (if ever again). He wasn't forthcoming about
    the reason, but indicated he was into something new that was going to
    take all his time. He did indicate he was going to leave his site up
    IIRC.

    Maybe he's gone to "the dark side"? Though, I'm not so sure I know who that
    is anymore.

    Must be gratifying for him that so many noticed. No one notices when
    my site goes haywire! :(

    ;)

    Some of us go down in a blaze of obscurity...
    Some of us go down in a haze of publicity...

    Guess that depends on how you define it. It isn't rolling over to
    AutoDe$k's site any more, but it's certainly not the same ol' site (it
    indicates that the site will return on April 7th -- in the meantime it
    offers a Mystery Download).

    Mark,

    Are you sure the problem isn't on your end? Spybot???? I get his site
    and all the SW stuff is there. I screen scraped his home page and
    pasted the text below.

    I think Mike's been watching too many old X-Files episodes
    lately...... or .........
    Too many SWX crashes has sent him off the deep end.
