While I am STILL not complete with my u3 set (I miss two CHDs) there's another update on the row. Things are more or less the same afaic these two SFR2049 chds (N/A?) and we have a few more additions to the huge driver list! Here's what's new:

Ah, don't forget a new url for the MAMEdev site exists now. The 3 letters at the end is not .com but .org You can find what you may seek here. ;)

New ClrMAME Pro 3.83a.

I would define it as "essential" for use with the latest 0.103u2 update. If you are using an older version please go and download it a.s.a.p. It will save you a lot of time solving issues like the one with kof2003 set which has been reported ok with an older version but traditional MAME32 Audit got it as wrong.

New hit counter. *UPDATE*

I have discovered that some more pop-ups were coming from the Netstat (webstats now). These were more rare (one after 2 or more hits over the page). For the very same reasons. I have banned that code out too. Ah, I feel better now... :)

New hit counter.

I really didn't notice this all these months, because I have been using Mozilla Firefox to surf the net. So, I found it a bit weird when a fellow visitor (thanks Mark) told me that this very site had a pop-up coming out every time one tried to open a page!

I tried to figure out what was it and finally I got to the point that the Fastcounter I have been using all these years had an advertising pop up added...

Let me get this straight: I don't mind one trying to get his/her life going, neither making money out of his/her business. What I really am pissed off with is, the fact that this very individual tries to do so under the label 'Free'!

So, from now on, a new counter comes in and I must admit it's a much better one too!
