Exclamation

Following a slight problem after uploading the new sites last night, we have again installed the 128bit encryption software.

By the end of the week we will also have a full SSL server, totalling 256bit encryption!

The site now is full of only the best Subaru tuning products available, along with products for Mini, Evo, Skyline, Bikes, etc etc being added to daily!

Please let us know if we can help in any way, as I cannot stress how much we pride ourselves on our level of customer service!

Many thanks.

Jamie

So why do I get constant mails from you ? Let me guess, your web designer has built you a database ?

Try looking for a .be extension, then remove.

Ta

PS: was your post approved with the "powers that be" ?

A whole 256 bit. Sheesh... I wonder if the FBI knows about that.

WTF indeed, what is your problem?

And who are the powers that be? :S Totally confused.

We send one email out once a week or fortnight, if you wanted to be removed then you could have asked, but then again you wouldn't be able to have a pop and make yourself look so clever on here would you?

I wont waste my time looking for a .be extension, if you want removing, be a man and contact me in a more civil manner.

OK, you asked for it.

Send me one more email spam and you'll have my fookin lawyer on yer case LOL.

Sure, I need to prove I'm a "man" and bitch.

Still, I know what 256 bit encryption means and you don't eh ?

Shame your little plug here goes sour

OK, so you'll stop emailing me ?

I didn't really mind, deleting is easy, but this 256 bits bull is taking the p1ss Jamie.

I hope your Impreza advice is built on more solid grounds.

Theo

PS: sure, **** me off more, and it will boost your sales LOL

PS2: the internet is a weird place, some people actually know when to talk and when to shut up

Thumbs down

Stop posting, start thinking.

I didn't ask to be on your list, so I don't feel the need to mail you about removing myself.

Do a fookin search. (I'm sure you have thousands of Belgian customers )

256 bits ... oh dear LOL

No because I don't sell rubbish.

Sorry but this needs to be said, you are acting like an idiot!

I have many customers in Belgium, but contrary to popular belief, the world, and not even Belgium revolves around you!

I know when to shut up, but why should anyone have to take this rubbish from you? So what if I don't know exactly what 256bit encryption is? I don't need to, Im not a web designer. Surely there must be something you know little of, but I doubt that very much!

I will be shutting up now, sleep well knowing that you have made yourself look like a complete fool.

Too be slightly less rude, the highest supported encryption for SSL sites at the moment is 128-bit, so 256-bit is talking rubbish. To someone who knows anything about it it's like claiming my STi8 has 8.847341539944400050047739793226e+40bhp as standard (2^128 * 260 ), to you that's obviously rubbish. Unfortunately it isn't quite so obviously rubbish when it comes to computers.

If you do help->about in internet explorer you can see it says "Cypher Strength: 128-bit", which is the highest it supports and that assumes you have a recent version, previously it was 56-bit.

Thank you for being so helpful.

While I'm being helpful. Your site, by default, doesn't work in IE 6 since default privacy settings reject cookies from third party domains without a p3p privacy statement, which means when you combine framesets with j-w-racing.com and j-w-racing.co.uk you get errors. Yes people can change the setting, but how many will just go away because it doesn't work and they don't know how to?

Chill pills all round 128, 256, 512 - all numbers which don't mean much to Jamie, and certainly mean sweet FA to me.
This thread has taken an interesting route and has got me completely confused.
Good will to one and all.

Talizman, exactly, thank you!

I wouldn't call it spam, and most people actually email me to tell me how appreciative they are of my news letters, but of course if someone doesn't want them, they ask, I remove them.

Quite simple when you think about it, and a lot more simple than 256bit encryption!

jeeeeeez

Ok so Jamie made a mistake with his encryption statements, it wasnt the end of the world, a polite correction from someone would have been much more helpful than just getting all shirty about it wouldnt it??

Some people on here seem to think they are the only ones who know anything about IT etc. If you know so damn much, then why not put the information to use and help someone out who's maybe in need of some advice.

Hmmmmm?????? Seems you rubbed Evil up the wrong way Jamie . Suggests he calms down a bit, speaking to somebody like that is out of order. Just because Jamie isn't an expert with regards to web security doesn't make him an idiot.

I'm in I.T., like loads of others in here, but i know **** all about about web security (ok i can take a reasonable guess)
Lets face it; how many ITers (except security specialists) know
much about encryption.
Along that line, whats the point of ripping Jamie to bits over it.

I have spoken to Jamie, and ordered a part from his site.
A polite helpful person.


Cheers

I appreciate that not everyone is a security expert (including me), but I do know that 128bit is as good as it gets on websites.

The thing is, if you 'web designer' is telling you things like this and they are obviously wrong, what else has he told you?

You have to trust your suppliers. Where would you be if you were making unfounded claims about products you sell???

I think Theo may have posted, as a certain person has had a tendancy in the past to spout total bollox about things that "someone or a supplier" lol has told him.

Thank god for people like Theo - without him this place would be full of tuners giving out crap advice.

Oh. It is.

lol
