I still don't see this as too much of a problem considering the number of times it's surfaced are not that great. It's good to for visitors to get an individual response rather than an automated one whenever this is possible. This might also encourage more use of the forum as we link members to where these things were first discussed. I'm not going to resurrect the spider issues again suffice to say that the hairy ones twice the size of my hand are the safest, although they still bite!The small black bald ones are what put you in the hospital for sure, and into an early grave without treatment within the first hour of getting bitten. One of the three dogs in the house here, a poodle called IG, is diabetic and on a special diet. Amongst other things he has cooked egg whites mixed with his food but can't eat the yolks because these would be dangerous for his heart. Consequently the hard boiled yolks have been put out in the garden and this is what attracts the lizards. They grow up to two mtrs and when they fight it's like something out of Jurassic Park No teeth, although they have powerful claws.

) that we can't and won't condone the 'bashing' of software (or vendors) purely because of their race or nationality. Maybe you have a valid point (Google also thinks so) but others don't and can quite legitimately point to similar instances with origins in other countries.If specific factors are revealed (like with Rising a while back) then this is different and naturally of interest to people here. Otherwise we ask again that members please refrain from making blanket criticisms of Chinese software just because it's from China

Thank you Midnight. You echoed my sentiments exactly and beat me to the punch. (Of course, you said it much better than I ever would have.)
