Yes- I forgot about it. I'll forward it on. mchunter and I registered on the forum here and now are discussing this situation with their techs. I suggest you guys do the same and maybe we can get some answers. http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic407179.html

There is a tool on the forum that I can run and did yesterday. It goes through and list all the .exe files and level of suspicious activity in each. In looking at the list, there are only a few .exe files that are new as of 2011 and all are low level- part of the forum's makeup. Nothing unusual. My IT asks the following question of anyone getting a virus warning on their machine: Can he send us a screen grab of the message he's getting? And a description of his machine, including os, version of explore he's using.

Just to clarify- I copied some old posts from the other topic---> Boiling Spring Campground is about two miles below the mouth of the Big Piney. One can put in at several spots around Devils Elbow, none of which are easy except the private access at the bridge which charges a fee and, as Chuck Tryon said in his book on Smallmouth Adventures, they have an openly hostile attitude. That would give you a 5 mile float. For those wanting a longer float on the Piney, I'm sure that the guy at Laz-Y-Days would let people put in at his place, which adds another 1.5 miles. Or if you really want a longer float, you can put in up around the East Gate at the Fort and go down to Devils Elbow, which 13 miles. There are some obscure Forest Service accesses in between that can make for shorter floats if you're adventurous enough to find them. Chuck's book is an invaluable source for that kind of thing. Riddle Bridge on the Gasconade to the campground is 13.5 miles. You can cut three miles off that float by taking out at Hwy. 28, though I don't know how good the access there is. It's 7.5 miles from the campground to the next access at Jerome. I figure there's an even chance that we'll now enter a drought phase after all that rain this spring, and if so the Gasconade above the mouth of the Piney is no place for jetboaters who don't know the river very well. But from the Piney down it's fairly easy to run. And there are good accesses at Jerome, Bell Chute, and a private access at Hwy. 42, all of which are a fairly easy drive from the campground. If your using boiling springs campground Larry is a great person. He knows the Access's on the Gasconade and Big Piney. The area You guys are fishing is all great smallie water. I've been on all of it Canoe and Jet Boat. I'd say the Piney will be the best water for the canoe guy's and the Nade will be good for the Jet boats up to Hwy 17. Above 17 the canoers should consider heading that way. Larry has some great access for those who use his shuttle service. The Lazy days campground owner is a very avid smallmouth fisherman. Oh' by the way the weekend after the 4th of July is a very busy weekend for all campground and canoe rentals. I would definitly do some research on how early One can get on the water and how may access's for that day's trip to avoid some of the rif raf. Or go in a canoe so far upstream that no one wants to go cause of dragging. I gotta work or I'd love to go. Ok, Here's what I see on who's going Smalliebigs- Yes Al Agnew - Yes GotMuddy - Yes Cricket -Yes?? Gavin- Maybe Snagged- Maybe Eric- Maybe Drew- Maybe ColdWater- Maybe FishinSWMO Maybe Does anybody else want to go? Tell me if this works for you July 9th How many are camping, how many just floating? Should be fun!! Some people are showing up Thursday, some on Friday, some on Saturday. I don't know if you guys have already contacted Larry at Boiling Springs or not or do you want me to do it for you. Let me know. I probably won't show up until Friday afternoon when the Friday float is near ending. BTW, a know a couple of guys that tore em up on the upper float putting in at Riddle Bridge access last week!!! So let's have a barbque on Friday night and then float again Saturday. I'm sure some will stay and float Sunday as well. Since I don't have any camping equipment I was wondering if I could share a tent on Fri and Saturday?? Here's a prelim agenda for Saturday night: 6:00 to 7:00 Supper 7:00 to 7:15 Change from beer to cocktails 7:15 to 8:00 Tally fish and award ceremony 8:00 to 9:00 Feats of Strength (JoeD, Coldwater) 9:00 to 10:00 Airing of Grievances (Cricket) 10:00 to 10:15 Get more gasoline and logs for the fire 10:15 to ? Free time

I don't know.... long lines at the kios's at Branson Landing I understand. $10 a feather- installed.

Not bad- you can wade out at #3 and down at Big Hole. Better than 100 mw for sure.

I guess I need to point out that about 1000 different people look at the forum a day and very few people have had warnings appear and only one report of any substantial damage possibly coming from this site. The whole site has been scanned several times lately and nothing has ever shown up. That's about all I can do at this point.

Crazy. Took Vince out from 4-6 pm today... backup. I got up early this morning, not planning to, but I have the same thing my dad has had- can't sleep past 4 am some nights. Rain storm - great rain! To my surprise, there was little fog on the lake at 5:30 so I headed up. Two units. Wanted to try something. I kept the boat close to the bluff bank below Lookout and worked it like I would flipping for bass. The water is stained so we can get away with it. Normally it's clear -- trout run from the boat. I've caught fish directly below the boat in 4 feet of water- they're not spooky in this water. I caught alot of rainbows doing this. Most of the time I got bit on the first drop from the cast. They key is to let it drop, even if you think you're close to the bottom. "If you're not losing jigs, you're not letting it sink enough, working it too fast." -- me. So when I took Vince out, we tried drifting below the dam with rebels and white woolies but "they weren't havin' it", as Babler would say. The wind was blowing us upstream and if you've drifted here and know that wind you know how tough it is. I thought, "Vince can do this", thinking of the flipping thing. So we headed down and started, and yes, he did do well. I think he caught a half dozen rainbows before he had enough. Video to follow. I dropped Vince off at the Riverpoint ramp and started home... well I thought I'd try my flipping thing on the bluff bank there so over I trolled and flipped a 3/32nd oz olive jig in an eddie, let it sink and "tap", I set the hook into a solid fish. Man!! I would not come up! I thought -- smallmouth! May be a brown trout! But I was thinking bass. I've only caught a handful so far this year so I'm not looking for browns. But it was (pic). Slipped it in the live well and cranked it up. Second cast-- "tap" and set the hook on a screamer. This trout didn't start down. It wasn't to play! Rainbow (pic). Caught another dozen rainbows on the stretch, not a slouch in the bunch. Headed back up to Fall Creek's dock and started again. Caught a blue gill and a chub on 2 cast. What's going on??? I'd caught several crappie and white bass earlier in the morning in the eddies upstream and now I'm continuing in the same pattern. Got back to the dock and had Marsha met me with the camera. Snapped some pics and all the fish went back in the lake. A young man on the dock was fishing with his grandpa. He was a little put out that I'd caught so many big fish in a short time and he had been fishing all day and not done as well. So I asked if he wanted to learn. He and his grandpa jumped in the boat and we headed to Lookout. I'll have to get alittle more info on the pair. They are regular guests but their last name eludes me. Vaughn is the boy's name and they're from O'Fallon, Missouri. Anyway, I explained what I knew about fishing jigs, the main thing was you lose jigs under and over the water and it takes time so don't get frustrated. Vaughn lost one jig, I lost 3. And Vaughn caught several trout, missed a few strikes. But the main thing is he casted very well, worked the jig and felt the strikes- set the hook. I think he's going to make a fine jig fisherman. He informed his grandma, once back at the dock. that he would never use that bait-stuff again. Within in 5 minutes, he was reeling in a rainbows from off the dock. BTW, I added another nice fish to my daily total on the short trip up- a smallmouth (pic).

Always a mistake.. and my wife even edited it!

Seven on the dry is great! Nothing like fishing a dry!

I'm giving oa a new look. Not the forum- it won't change.

Looking for images, good images of stripers taken on the lake. Need them for the new site- thumbnail. Thanks Phil

There's been several reports talking about using cicada patterns- tying them and fishing them. They're pretty much done here but our trout are still looking up.

Corrected. Thanks for pointing it out.

Fog wasn't too bad so I could scoot uplake fairly quickly. I guess the horns blew as I was boating up because the water started moving as soon as I got up there.</p> <p>Wanted to try a jig and float. Tied on an olive 1/125th oz marabou jig under a float 6 feet and started in the big hole below Lookout Island. Lots of rainbows midging all over the place but I didn't want to mess with them.

Gezzz... what a fat striper!! Full of rainbows I bet!! I was thinking today about the record striper- there's been no news of it in the press that I've seen. Was there? Details, Crown? I'd love to post the story on the front page of OA. Do you have any other pictures? Thanks for posting!!

ok

You should write the tournament officials.

http://fishpaa.com/2011/06/king-of-table-rock-is-crowned/ King of Table Rock is Crowned [ 0 ] June 25, 2011 | admin By Pete Robbins BRANSON, Mo. – Heading into the second event of this year’s PAA Bass Pro Shops Tournament Series Presented by Carrot Stix, smart money said that Stacey King would challenge for the title. Conventional wisdom was not overturned this week as King led the tournament from wire to wire with three limits of bass that totaled 58.52 pounds. His pound and a half Day One lead dwindled to just over a pound yesterday, but on the strength of a massive 22.99 limit today he claimed the title by over 6 pounds. For his efforts he won $5,000 in cash and a new Nitro Z-8 with a Mercury 225 Optimax outboard and TH-Marine Atlas jackplate. King also had the biggest single bass of the tournament today, a 6.22 pound largemouth that earned him a Humminbird 898c Si combo. The remainder of the top five, in order, included Hefty pro Mike McClelland, Frog Tape pro Brian Travis, Booyah pro Terry Butcher and reigning PAA Angler of the Year Tommy Biffle. While King cemented his status as Table Rock royalty with the victory, behind every good man there’s a good woman. In this case the queen, also named King, is his wife Peggy. “I really didn’t have a lot of confidence going into today,” the Nitro pro said. “I told Peggy that this morning. You think I didn’t get a butt chewing?” Apparently the butt chewing she dished out sunk into his brain in a hurry. He caught the tournament’s big fish on his second cast of the day. King used a variety of lures, including jigs and swimbaits, but related that every fish he brought to the scales this week came on one of two oversized plastic worms – a Bass Pro Shops 12-inch Squirmin’ Worm and a 13-inch straight-tailed hand pour. King credited some of this morning’s success to second place finisher Mike McClelland. “Normally, I like to fish that big worm fast,” King said. “But yesterday on stage Mike said something about having to slow down to get better bites. This morning early I fished it real slow.” That made a huge difference. He had enough weight to win within the first few hours. “Big fish like big baits, especially in the summertime,” he said, then confirmed that he’d have thrown even larger worms if he could find some. He did his damage on tapering points that abutted the river channel. McClelland’s weights improved each day, and but for King’s massive limit his 22.00 pound bag would have been the biggest of the tournament. Like King, he fished large profile baits all week. They included a Jewel football head jig with a Zoom Brush Hog as a trailer, a big Zoom worm and an unnamed swimbait. “In a tournament like this, you have to make up your mind to fish for fewer bites with big baits,” he said. After an uncharacteristically difficult Elite Series season, McClelland said he hoped that this event would be his “slumpbuster.” He said that he cost himself the chance to win by starting in the wrong place on Day One. He didn’t land his first keeper that day until nearly 1 o’clock and managed to salvage the day with over 12 pounds in the last few hours. While a runner-up finish can be disappointing, McClelland had a positive outlook about the angler who beat him. “This is where I learned to bass fish,” he said. “If I’m going to get beat here, I want to get beat by Stacey King. When I was 16 years old he took me under his wing and took me out on the Bassmaster tour with him. He’s one of the most incredible anglers I’ve ever been around.” Biffle and Travis spent most of their day flipping and each had his lightest limit of the tournament. Biffle burned a lot of gas and a lot of baits to amass his 45.26 pound total catch. “I’d go up and fish one tree, then run two to three miles or up to ten miles to the next one,” Biffle said. “You’ve got to be fortunate to get the big bites and then when you get them you have to be lucky to get them out of the bushes. I probably went through 200 to 300 Biffle Bugs in the past three days.” The next tournament in the PAA Bass Pro Shops Tournament Series Presented by Carrot Stix will take place August 18-20 on Alabama’s Neely Henry Lake near Gadsden, Alabama.

How old do you think those 15-19 inch brown are? Because if they are all or most of them in the same year class, its be interesting to go back and see what water conditions were that year. It sounds like you have a tremendous spawn and good survival rate that year- or may be two years. You do catch rainbows too, don't you? I mean when you're using crank and stick baits.

What'd you fool them with?

Mitch- you might want to restart this topic. I deleted some posts that weren't appropriate (videos) and some of the last part won't make sense. I would have loved to go on this float but just can't swing it this time. May be this fall.
