Even if you aren't a member of CastleCops, you can sign up and take a chance in the sweepstakes give-away of more than $130,000 worth of security software and tools to Castle Cops forum members.
QuoteThe Contest celebrates CastleCops five years of operation and recognizes its volunteer community outstanding achievements and excellence in Internet security. Our promoters have donated their products as prizes estimated total at $130,000 US for this contest. We thank our promoters and our community for making our anniversary a special occasion.
You need to register at the forum, go through the email validation, and then click the link at the top of the forum to enter the contest.
Check as many (or all) of the boxes on the entry form as you wish to enter for a chance to win. If you aren't sure if you would be interested in the particular software/book, etc., that's ok. You can return and check the box later to enter that particular drawing.

What you talking about? The link Corrine provided above works, as well as yours. Are your pages not loading again :exorcize:
Or do you mean the 6 page thread on how to sort out the "categories"? :hysterical:
I just checked all the boxes I was interested in...BUT, someone already had my nick (https://www.landzdown.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi71.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fi152%2Fripley2006%2F1aba5912.gif&hash=79db91c38161e4adcc9510cf70163fb9cdfaa857)
Who knows? Maybe I'll win a Vista Ultimate and get a "smarter" online rep at the same time... :hysterical:

I just hope one of you wins something that you can use. Definitely not bad for the price of registration -- or lurking. :)

Yup, yup, FREE is good! I also have my hopes for that WinPatrol Plus so I have a proggy to train to take care of my start ups (https://www.landzdown.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi71.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fi152%2Fripley2006%2F1c3853ba.gif&hash=63f5c856c5062c4a850d20afc88f44c9ab688177)
And with the cost of Vista Ultimate (https://www.landzdown.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi71.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fi152%2Fripley2006%2F4ad02eb9.gif&hash=69c075a3767038fbe65bc20d25d77a183cb3bc70)
Tarnak and anyone else who joins CastleCops and enters this contest have a fun, free option to engage in! Who is going to win??? :D (https://www.landzdown.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi71.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fi152%2Fripley2006%2F7d503de7.gif&hash=37f0090f778863d0a5718257805ca5c341bba627)
Although this is a wonderful opportunity for ALL of us, it should not be forgotten that it coincides with the
5 year Anniversary of a class act forum!!!!! :thumbsup: :gwave: :gwave: :gwave:
@Tarnak, glad you got thru finally...that "Ripley_or_not" was an idea I got from our Hayc59 :flowers:
I hope you realize that if you didn't sign up for a chance at a particular software and now wish you had -- you can go back to the contest page and submit another entry. The "categories" you already entered will not be available to enter again.

Ripley, I've been using WinPatrol 2007 and like the "delayed start" feature. http://www.winpatrol.com/beta2007.html
Additional prizes have been donated by vendors to the Castle Cops 5th Anniversary Celebration. Even if you entered before, you may just want to go back and take a chance at one or all of the following:
- Tall Emu Pty Ltd: 1,000 licenses of Online Armor v2 ($39,950)
- Emsi Software: 1,000 Licenses of a-squared Anti-Malware 2.1 ($39,950)
- Kaspersky: 20 Copies of Internet Security 6.0 ($1,599)
- Dave Kleiman: 20 Books of Winternals: Defragmentation, Recovery, and Administration Field Guide ($999)
That brings the value of all of the "prizes" to $215,000 US Avg Value in Prizes!
I've been going through the winners post and recognize some familiar names.
Got one here with "our own" Tarnak! Nice going (especially after all the hard work of getting there. Persistence does pay off!). :rose: :rose: :rose:

I KNEW that new nick wasn't going to be lucky (https://www.landzdown.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi71.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fi152%2Fripley2006%2F1aba5912.gif&hash=79db91c38161e4adcc9510cf70163fb9cdfaa857)
@Tarnak, I see you were jolly on the spot with the first reply in your winner's thread :lol: What you do, stay up all night WAITING for the announcement?? :tease:
And that F-Prot NERD Edition...took me a while to sort out. Quick review at the F-Prot website didn't DEFINE that edition...had to google it http://forum.f-prot.com/index.php/topic,146.0.html
Now, I see you can also become a member of their, what looks to be, an elite (see link above)"Nerd Club."!!!
I'm envious Tarnak! They've got a dandy F-Prot support forum over there! Be sure to pass on some of those NERD secrets you are now entitled to!
And so you know SpyDie and Temmu, I was unfamiliar with your prize as well, so I went to their website & saw they had an online scan to check your computer's possible vulnerabilites. http://www.greenborder.com/
Yup, yup, I tried their online scan (https://www.landzdown.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi71.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fi152%2Fripley2006%2F52391a27.gif&hash=4670f91471c1a80e956cecc57c7d669475c24038) They said they would give me a report at the end, but I got some kind of IE script error (object doesn't support this property or method), thus no report, and yet it grabbed some of my files, stuck em in a folder, put it on my desktop, and called it STOLEN FILES.
So after you sort out your new GreenBorder Pro (https://www.landzdown.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi71.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fi152%2Fripley2006%2F42e1643f.gif&hash=9b917d1df91903fe45492b8cab54c44ff9f02c7a) maybe you can let me know what that new folder means...hummm, files that could be stolen...files that were stolen. (https://www.landzdown.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi71.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fi152%2Fripley2006%2F515bbf52.gif&hash=598770b2e7823ec848fafcd79e8513ddd352f42e)
I saw SpyDie but missed Temmu. He must have been in the process of being assimilated at the time. :lol:
