Hey everyone, From 3:00 - 4:00 PM Eastern Standard Time our forums were unreachable due to server load. You may have encountered the following error message when trying to view the forums: The reason is that the Anti-Malware Toolkit was today's Featured Windows Download on Lifehacker! It also appeared on DownloadSquad and gHacks. During that time, there were over 500 guests on our frontpage alone reading the Anti-Malware Toolkit 1.03.125 article. Our server load returned to normal around 4PM EST. We apologize for any inconvenience. Kind regards, Tarun

The Lunarsoft Wiki has had several updates recently. The front page of the wiki has been updated with recommended articles, recent changes and other information. This should help users find the articles they are looking for faster and easier. We have also helped DjLizard as his wiki has come to a close. All of his articles can now be found here in the Lunarsoft Wiki. DjLizard has set up redirects so that if anyone attempts to visit the old articles they will be redirected to the Lunarsoft Wiki.

Our frontpage has been updated to the latest version. This update includes numerous bug fixes which effect navigation and other forms of interactivity with the frontpage. A download module has also been installed after thorough testing. Commonly used technician tools have been added, along with the Anti-Malware packages. A small revision has occurred with the updated packages and we have removed one of the packages since it has become identical to another that we offered. Previously, we offered: Lite, Standard, Full and Professional. Over the course of time Lite and Standard became identical due to the programs offered. The decision was made to remove the Standa…

Hello everyone, Recently we attempted to install a plugin to bridge our frontpage and forums together. Unfortunately there were issues with this plugin which resulted in several of our forum members replicating in our database and new members having issues signing up for our website. Thankfully we caught this very early and were able to restore our database without a major loss in posts or other data. A few of our new members were lost during the database rollback. If this happened to you, please contact me. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Happy New Year and welcome to 2008! We hope everyone had a safe and happy new year to start things off right. Just as we did last year, we sent an email to all of our members wishing them a safe and happy new year. We also gave a summary of changes to the site and team. If you did not receive this email, please log in and check your email address to be sure it is correct. If your email address is correct, be sure to check your spam filters and set them to allow email from Lunarsoft.

Our forums have been updated to the latest version. If anyone spots any bugs, please let us know and they will get resolved quickly and efficiently.

Every year for a celebration of Lunarsoft's birthday, something special is given. This year for the third birthday we have unveiled the Lunarsoft Wiki! Lunarsoft Wiki Feel free to discuss the wiki. We'll be adding lots of articles, useful FAQ information and much more. Some statistics from this day: Our members have made a total of 15,215 posts We have 335 registered members The newest member is FastEddie57 Most users ever online was 234 on Jun 30 2007, 11:39 AM

Our forum has been upgraded to the next version of the software. A majority of the modifications have been reapplied as well. This latest version offers numerous bug fixes and improvements to the speed of the forums, along with other excellent rendering improvements. As always, every attempt possible was made to keep the downtime to a minimal amount. On the plus side we have a new feature that will help in diagnosing computer issues. In every post your Operating System will be displayed. Should you encounter any issues or find a feature you used to be missing, please post about it here.

Thanks to ricktendo64, Lunarsoft has a Forum search engine plugin. Firefox has a blue glow and Internet Explorer 7 has an orange glow. The glow indicates that there is a search plugin that can be added. To add the search engine plugin, simply choose it from the dropdown list as seen below. Once you add the search plugin, the glow fades away. Enjoy everyone!

Recently, some of you may have experienced an issue where you have needed to log in despite having the website set to remember you. This issue is said to be resolved. Should there be any issues, please don't hesitate to let me know. There was a remote issue with PM's having bugs such as not being able to send, etc. This should also be resolved. You will need to check your PM Block List. I manually flushed the blocklist via SQL so the blocklists should be empty. Minor changes will also be occurring so if something doesn't work for a short while, please report it and I will address the issue if it is a bug or simply a modification. Enjoy everyone, and have a Hap…

They have just finalized the forum software that we use here so when I can finally get some extra time (literally a few days to accomplish everything) I will proceed with upgrading the forums and then fixing the skin. It may take a bit of time so please bear with us and of course have a happy holiday season! Forums upgraded. Frontpage is next.

Okay the upgrade has gone through. Now I've got to clean up the site and redo the skin. Thanks again everyone, I'll get this all back as fast as possible. Should you find any issues, be it an image not working with the theme or any other general issue, please report it and it will be sorted as quickly as possible.

Thanks to everyone we have reached one excellent goal! We now have a lifetime license for Invision Power Boards! Unfortunately this means we will be having downtime tonight. It will begin at 6PM EST and I will try to have the website back up and hopefully running smoothly before the nights end. During this time the entire website and database will be backed up in case anything should go wrong. If anyone knows of any nice web portals that Lunarsoft.net should migrate to let me know via PM or post. This is due to the fact that the current portal, MKPortal, has terrible support and they do not have a working version for Invision 2.1/2.2. Thanks everyone, Taru…

For over a year we have run off of the last free unlimited trial and now we are very near getting enough funds to upgrade the forums with a lifetime IPB licence. IPB 2.2 will be out very soon as well, so this will be acquired as soon as we have enough funds. We're just barely short by a very minimal amount (literally a few dollars) and once we have enough, there will be an upgrade within days after reaching the goal. Thanks to everyone who has shown support, and all of our posters!

That's right! Thanks to several recent and very generous donations Lunarsoft is nearing one of our goals! Lunarsoft is roughly THREE-FOURTHS towards having enough funds from donations to give something back to our members! What does this mean, you ask? At a nice pace, we are climbing towards being able to get a Lifetime Invision Power Board license! Invision Power Board Perpetual License $185.00 This will give you a perpetual license to use Invision Power Board for one installation on all current and future versions. Selecting this option will also give you access to upgrades to the software for all future versions and one year of support is included. I'd like …
