Disconected again + fear hack

  Again i was disconected during a m/play game, when i tried to re-connect i got a box (4 inch by 2 inch similar to browser window with blue border around it with attention inside border instead of say mozzilla firefox etc etc,

  Inside this box its actually said that wgt5 needs my skyrouter information to acces the site, and then a box to enter number.

  I tried to print screen etc etc, so i could upload it for investigation, but during my haste of trying to reconnect to my match (which i couldn't in time) what i thought i had done to print screen, never materialised when i used paint.

  This box only appears after getting disconnected, and even if i go from say home page pf here to forum, it keeps appearing untill i close firefox completely and restart.

  How can i save it properly next time if it occurs again?

  Hit PRTSC immediately. It will copy to your clipboard and be there whenever you get to Paint. You don't have to paste it immediately. You blew it. There's no such thing as "trying"-either you did it or you didn't.  :-)

  Must have DIDN'T!! lol, because i remember not being to sure,  instead of just pressing print screen, i used shift + P/S, and tried again with cntrl + p/s, damn, it was just print screen alone!!

  But this is getting quite a regular occurance now, maybe 1 a fortnight, so thanks,  i'll remember exactly what to do, next step will be using photo bucket, not even used that either before!

  Chris- I hooked Piztaker up with this free program   http://www.irfanview.com/     which is like Paint on steroids and way more useful. Once you hit that PRTSC key open irfan and paste it. You can then crop it, text on it, etc. and then save it to your computer.

  Do you have Vista? If you do look at the Snip tool. That's insanely easy to use. GL

  Definitely not. Quit hitting the CTRL key bud.
