It will be easier to refer you to this[^] message rather than repeat it all.

The message info at the top of the message board - the one that says "Msgs 1 to 50 of 3,243 (Total in Forum: 39,894)Refresh" - is no longer centered, it has moved a bit to the left (on Firefox 6.0b).
Also, shouldn't there be a space between the closing parenthesis and the Refresh link? (picky picky picky  )

The space has been fixed (in fact that bug was introduced a week or so ago - finally fixed it last night).
Centering? I will take a look.

I can't tell if this guy[^] is hawking a couple of books or not.
His communication skills are lacking in the extreme. He's not really asking a question, other than looking for comments on something (can't tell what!), but nor does he post a link to anything to examine.

Is it just me, or is anyone else having issues with the email alerts associated with a reply to a post? It seems that I haven't gotten a message since the daily news was sent out.

It could be a backlog on our mailers. It could be the hamsters taking offense at your wording. One never knows in these situations.

It seems to be working now. Why would the hamsters feel that way? I love hamsters. They are delicious.

Have a look at this article: Guide to Win32 Memory DC[^]
If you try to browse the code the message "Unable to extract file from the Zip archive" is displayed. If I use 7zip locally it says that an unknown compression method was used (some form of fancy WinZip magic I guess).
I reported the problem in the article directly, but I guess it would also be nice to have some kind of a validation mechanism in place to prevent uploading 'unbrowseable' archives.

Great idea - we'll add this.

Please do NOT report lili510 as a spammer if you are reading this and have not been bitten by this spammer.
I want to see how well the automated spam system works without intervention by Chris or with people reporting it here. So, if you are seeing the above spammer for the first time in this post, do NOT report them.
My guess is that the overwhelming amount of spam this person is creating will be seen by enough members that their reports should soon automatically suspend the spammer's member account.

And success. I logged on to give the 4th whack, and someone else has finished the job sometime in the last half hour.

When I came on this morning, there were 6 notifications of comments against one of my tips, i went to the users account to report, but it wqas already inactive. However, all the comments were still present, had to manually delete them.

Yeah, I wonder what Code Project's strategy is for that. Perhaps each person spammed will be responsible for deleting the messages they got spammed with. I'm certainly not going to delete the other 300 or so comments the spammer left. However, if we each delete the bits that we've been impacted by (and the occassional other bits here and there), that should help to keep things clean.
It would be nice if, after being reported as a spammer, the spammer's post rate was temporarily capped at one message per minute. That way, we could have more of a chance to stop them before things get out of hand. although, they had already posted about 200 comments before I reported them (first report), so it might be prudent to limit every member to, say, 3 messages a minute. Or maybe the further the timespan, the more rescrictive the limit becomes. So no more than 3 messages a minute, but no more than 10 messages every 5 minutes and no more than 20 messages every 30 minutes. Or maybe base that rate on reputation (more reputation = you can post more frequently).
When I say "message", I mean anything a user can post (forum message, comment, tip/trick, question, etc.).
