the reason being that on certain forums you cant say virgin or sky or you will get banned..its a way to get around the forums rules...a bit like saying virgin media is s***e<<<< u will notice now because i replaced hit with stars i have now escapped the rules of this forum and the swear filter...summit like that

Re: All Chipped Cable Boxes Going Down
Slight hint, the swear filter on CF is not a way round the rules and we still infract for such usage.  Especially when the meaning and intent is clear

Re: All Chipped Cable Boxes Going Down
May be coincidental but is this what caused my V+ to reboot at 6am this morning?

No that just happens occasionally for no apparent reason, only worry if it is constantly rebooting.
