forum.mygame.ph - This is Really Safe?

I have the Web of Trust add-on installed on my Firefox 3. One day, when a site called "forum.mygame.ph" in the Google search results, at the right of the first result, I found out that the site has a "poor reputation." However, when I viewed the McAfee SiteAdvisor results for all websites with the domain "mygame.ph", these sites are safe.
Microgaming, please conduct a sitewide and server maintenance on April 28 to fix that WOT rating.

All-Missile Warfare - It's Only a Concept

This post is in a form of a concept and it is not intended to harm national security and/or link to any military secret.
In approximately the next millennium, firearms for military use will be on the verge of obsolescence. In that case, all powerful countries will have to change their strategy in favor of missiles as the only weapons in war. Newer wars during that period will have to be fought using missiles. Missile technology is increasing, and electronic defenses against them are becoming more technologically advanced and more sophisticated. Missiles in the future will be fired from the shoulder, as in antitank and antiaircraft missiles, or have heat seekers and the resistance to enemy radar detection. Large missiles of the future fired from space or from an earth-based base can destroy a large metropolitan area or even a small country. Missile-toting countries will have to reinforce defenses in case a war has started by another missile-armed nation. If that country launches a preemptive strike on a large city or an important military installation located in a warring nation to decrease its will to fight back, that nation will have to get help from a friendly nation that has powerful missiles to fight back before the time is up. Future wars that use only missiles are more costly than World War II, and bring more havoc to almost all participating nations.

After the war, the suffering nations will take much time to rebuild themselves economically, physically, and environmentally. Thus an all-missile war is more destructive than wars that use conventional strategy and tactics.
The specific names of nations, weapons, and other locations used in this post are not mentioned for security reasons.

The Pushdown Effect - Finale (Part 3 of 3)

For those concerned over the ads that appear on many sites...
the final part of The Pushdown Effect will suffice.
Want no ads on your Wikia-hosted site you accessed with fast loading? Just use Adblock Plus if you use Firefox 3 or Adblock Pro if you're using Internet Explorer 8. If you don't log in and you used Adblock Plus, here's the result:

If you don't use Adblock Pro here's the result:If you log in into a Wikia site, this will happen if you open a non-special page:

In the first screenshot, Adblock Plus blocks ads from appearing, but not the pushdowns. In the second, ads and pushdowns appear when viewing that page with IE7 (extensions, like Adblock Pro, are not compatible with that version). In the last, when logged in, all ads and pushdowns are hidden.
If you want ad-free and pushdown-free browsing, register into Wikia.

THE VERDICT
Pushdowns are one of the leading causes of slow page loading and annoyances over many people. The best way to avoid them is to block them with Adblock Plus for FF3 and Adblock Pro for IE8. This makes people viewing their pages with ads to be time-saving and free-space-efficient. Now, destroy these pushdowns!
