If you are a Comodo Personal Firewall user and you are also an active player on Valve’s Steam platform then you may have an issue with Friends panel on Steam unable to connect to the server. First you will see an information about connecting to Steam servers and then you will end up with an information that states: „No network connection could be made to the Steam servers. Steam will automatically retry connection until the service becomes available.” You may think, that the problem lies somewhere on Valve’s side but that’s not true. It’s your Comodo Firewall that’s messing around. All you need to do is to disable „Block fragmented IP datagrams” option under Firewall -> Advanced -> Attack Detection Settings -> Miscellaneous. This location is valid for Comodo Firewall 3.0.

While playing „Test Drive Unlimited”, I’ve found out it’s easier to decide, what to get for a certain group to drive, if you have some kind of cheat-sheet. What I offer you below, it’s a list of cars with an ability to sort things by clicking any header of the table. Hope it would help a bit.

Flagit WordPress plugin is a simple „tool” which I have written to ease entering esport-style nicknames with flags. If you want to write such text

Rookie Unreal Tournament player [flag=pl] grocal managed to win close fight with [flag=eu] Chinax0r scoring 25:13. Let us hope this is not the last win of [flag=pl] grocal. GG & HF!

in WordPress posts then download this plugin, copy its content into /wp-content/plugins directory in your WP installment and enable it in admin panel. Then every usage of bbcode-like expression in format [flag=XX] will result in showing flag XX.png. For example entering [flag=pl] grocal results with [flag=pl] grocal showing up. Simple, isn’t it?

• FlagIt plugin for WordPress (version 0.2): flagit_0.2.zip [134KB]

1.7.0, 1.8.0, 1.9.0. German, English, French? Look no more for „World of Warcraft” patches. If you don’t like or can’t use Blizzard BitTorrent client for downloading patches than try to check out this place. Most of full 1.X.0 patches are there. Good luck!

It’s a known fact, that roleplaying on RP realms in „World of Warcraft” is better if you have someone with style and correct attitude to play with. RP Force is a fresh created organization, which gathers around RPers from Moonglade realm. All are welcome! Regular events, plans, sharing of in-character and out-of-character ideas – that’s all you can find on their site.

Let us hope that this will evolve into something serious and nice!

Cornelius wishes good luck to all!

How would Grocal look in South Park?
