[QUOTE=black66]Willing to part with a new unopened bottle of Rejex (shipping included) if you can cure my PC problems.

Running Win XP - using IE as browser. Broadband connection is with time warner cable - roadrunner.

I can acess every web site with no delays - no problem. My issues are only with corvetteforum.com. It takes a while to load each page - or I get "the page cannot be displayed".

Is it the forum - my ISP - or something else I can do to fix this problem. I enjoy surfing the forum - but it is taking me F O R E V E R.

Better PM me if you have an answer - who knows if I can get back to the thread.

I had the same problem and went to PCTools.com. Download Spyware Dcotor and Registry Mechanic for $50.00. I ran the 2 programs and had 370 adwares, infections, etc... and in a half hour my laptop was clean. It's running like the day I bought it and the pages on CF load as fast as turning a page of a book. Good luck and hope it works.

Sounds like a good offer and I'm just up the road in the Heidelberg area off Autobahn 6.

I would love to see the "secret" test area out there.

You ever make it up here for any of the Corvette Cruises or the Viper Vette Shhootout at Hockenheim Ring?

If I remember right, the way it used to go was you get something, you give something. You didn't get anything without giving something in the same thread.

I agree the C6 goodies sitting on the shlef just aren't in a high supply right now.

To play devils advocate it is titled pay it forward not grab bag. At the present time I have nothing to give I have not even got the car yet. when I do regardless of the time of year I will offer it up. It seems to spoil the mood if we start carping about it right from the git go. Give some folks some time and maybe we should keep this as a year round thing?

I am willing to give away my stock air box complete from in front of the mass air flow sensor. I have the Vararam installed & won't be needing it.

My car is an 06 Z51 A6. Th car had 900 miles when I took it off.

I'll take that.

I have a set of PD flaps (stone deflectors/guards really) that I received from one of the datawiz quizes. Was going to use them but likely won't. Sitting on the shelf to the first that wants them.
