Alright apparently there has been some grief with Daylight saving time. Basically lots of companies have had issues with there computers entering Daylight saving to early, this has caused all sorts of havoc.

Oh my God, Oh my God… This has to be the most original & fun game released since Portal. Audio-Surf is a game that is a cross between R-Type, Guitar Hero, Columns, Wipeout and probably some other games I can’t think of now. Audio-Surf builds puzzles based upon the music track you select to play.
Example: Nine Inch Nails – The Wretched (Version)
You can get the Demo from the Audio-Surf website or buy it through Steam (*It’s Only US$9.95 – About AU$12*)
UPDATE

Audio-Surf is actually produced by and independent designer, so don’t expect to see it in the shops. At present the only place you can buy it is Steam. If you don’t like Steam then see this thread.

Well this is a nice of the creators of G-Archiver, looks like he/she/them decided to steal everyones login and passwords using his little tool. So remember if you have used G-Archiver then send all your hate mail to jterry79@gmail.com, as this was the address that the passwords were being sent to.
The developers have also given a rather flimsy excuse for what happens, I ask why would you need to collect the user names and passwords to debug a program? What The?
