Title: rainbows and unicorns
Post by: kedrednael on April 01, 2011, 11:13:07 am: Hey,
I watch the diaspora forum every day to see if there are any updates,
But when I open the hard light forum I get a lot screens of unicorns, rainbows and more rainbows on my screen.
Is this the work of a cracker?
Is it contaminous?

By the way I downloaded and enabled adblocker to firefox and it does indeed remove the horror.
