Not to mention it opens up those annoying pages that only work in IE to us Firefox users. |

Before we list anything here we check for viruses, trojans, spyware etc. And even if we find something clean, it still has to pass our special "cheesetest" which for obvious reasons we do not publish exact specs. NonagsPlus is even safer, downloads are from our server and files can't be switched after we list them. Sure all this means a lot of work for us, but it's what brings our visitors back for years... and that's how we like it. |
