Im not sure if this is any threat at all, but does anyone else get a virus attempt when accessing the "Open specifications link"?

Its understandable that some anti viruses over react on simple files, but i just wanna know if anyone else is aware of this.

I don't get any warning using Firefox 9 / Ubuntu 10.04. It seems that this erroneous JS/Agent warning is a well known problem...

Speaking of that link to 3Dfx stuff, it doesn't look very helpful. Anyone know where to find the documents that were probably once hosted there?

I'm not too sure what all was hosted on that link, but http://www.falconfly.de/reference.htm looks pretty helpful. (I'd have edited the wiki - but I'm not sure if that's what you want, or if something better is available)

Regards,

Okay, so what's the deal with "Combuster click here link to virus", l4b :shock: :D
(I read all posts anyway, so just ask what you actually want if you don't want to miss me)


If you're looking for my reference documents, googling for the chip name found a mirror of the documents I have previously used as official documentation (and more). I've seen a few sites like shikhin's but they either had dead links or no register information at all (i.e. the information that we as OS developers actually want)...
