No problems here. but have you ever thought about PM'ing someone with a problem and just quitely sitting back, waiting for a response and not expecting that everyone is hacking in your computer

Yeah.. but then how would others be made awear that thier PC's could fall foul to the same issue if I kept this private by sending a PM rather than in the public domain.

I try to keep the PC clean from the sort of crap that these "free hosting" sites infect on peoples PC's, its not the fact that they "hack" the PC its the fact that it slows even a modern PC down by having another application running in stealth in the background. And if I want a new search option on the toolbar of my browser I would rather make that choice for myself rather than it forced on me simply because I viewed an innocent 3rd partie's image on free hosting site.

Hit a storm coming across the Pacific on our destroyer. The bow would go completely under. The water would hit the forward turret and the spray would soak those of us watching from the signal bridge. When the bow came back up the whole ship would shake like a dog drying itself off.

Fond memories, fun times.

That's a pretty sweet picture. Now ya know why hurricanes are avoided at sea (stupid Halsey...)

Could someone tell me where to find the "big waves mod" for SHIII.
I cant seem to find it at http://u-boot.realsimulation.com/.

Oops... my bad... The url below will take you to Timetraveller's great SH3 site. Just scroll down and there it is.

Happy hunting!

Now that would be cool seas if it was in SH3 huh, imagine playing SH3 with seas like THAT! :rock:

:o Scary and humbing pics. Wow, thanks for the link!

Oops, sorry if there was malware/adware. I mostly use a powerbook and OS X for internet access (everything really, other than games), so never see that stuff (and my game PIV has Spysweeper running, so I never really see it there either - and I never, ever use IE, on any of my machines regardless of their OS).

The site reminded me too of one our research sites when I was doing my M.Sc. - Cobb Seamount off the coast of Washington State. The top of Cobb comes up to somewhere around 125-130ft below the surface - but US Navy divers in the 1970's took pictures that showed it was regularly wave scoured, and Coast Guard incident reports make it clear some VLCC's and ULCC's have bottomed out on it at times.
