Forced website update

For years I relied on the goodwill of a friend on line (Benji Spencer) who was kind enough to allow me to set up some of my pages on his server. Some time ago he made a decision to give up web hosting because other users were abusing the privilege by sending unsolicited mail from his server.

If you have had similar experiences, know that you are not alone. After Benji retired his server I had to cut back on automatic secure services because of the role his system played in delivering them.

If you have had troubling experiences with unsolicited mail and abuse of your trust or your goodwill, know you are not alone. Those of us valuing such qualities will continue on, helping others as long as we are able.

PS:Over the last 2 days about 100 pages of PC Helpers and frequently asked questions pages have been updated to correct errors and replace the out of date feedback system. Things were so busy I missed one or two appointments because of it (sorry folks!). The improvements should beef up security and reduce junk mail by non human submitters.
