Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Ok, so I suddenly feel like a newb... but what kind of license agreement does AMD currently have with Intel?
I am trying to think what piece of the AMD platform they might have taken from Intel. The x86 instruction set has been replicated by others (Via, Transmeta, etc...), the 64bit...
It replaces the system dictionaries, not your custom.dic file, so it should still remember words you have added.
However, you are correct that the point I was making is not that the update is too large to download (I'm on broadband) or that its a particularly large update... the point is that...
Maybe I'm paranoid but I always like to review my windows updates, so they are not automatic and I read the details of each one before installing. A few days ago a new update appeared: KB955020, which is 63MB. I wanted some explanation on why this update was so huge, so I looked up the...
