No, please not SPOILER! That tends to be hidden completely for old browsers, and not sure if also hindering page-search or archiving. Perhaps something else - "code"? But that increases the size yet more, using ultrawide Courier-fonts. Another...? (That said, I'd be surprised if RT changes anything at all only for reading convenience) But being a selfhelper, couldn't resist playing a bit now ;-) Tweak-1: This CSS filters all comments written by RT, then limits all single P-elements to a max height and if too long, shows a scrollbar: body.ipsApp article.ipsComment div[data-quotedata*='roytam1'] div.cPost_contentWrap p{ max-height: 400px !important; overflow-y: auto !important; } CSS-variations for example: remove author-requirement, or limit complete-comment height instead of single P-elements Tweak-2: This JAVASCRIPT (bookmarklet?) filters all comments written by RT, but (unlike above) takes the complete comment text. Then checks if the TEXT "- Bug " is contained more often than 8x. Only THOSE comments get limited with a scrollbar: var c="body.ipsApp article.ipsComment div[data-quotedata*='roytam1']"; var j, el, lg0, lg2, x, LIST=document.querySelectorAll(c); for (j=0; j < LIST.length; j++){ el=LIST[ j].querySelector("div[data-role='commentContent']"); lg0=el.textContent.length; lg2=el.textContent.replace(/- Bug /gi, '').length; x =(lg0 - lg2)/6; if (x > 8) { el.style.maxHeight='400px'; void(el.style.overflow='auto'); /* just for TESTING! Remove line: */ void(el.style.backgroundColor='yellow'); }} JS-variations: remove author requirement, choose another max-height, choose another TEXT, choose another hits-limit .

Thank you for popping into the café and thank you for the reply - I'll be sure to reply at another time when I can better answer your posting. Overall not too bad today and I did get outside for a short walk in the sun (no people) and I enjoyed it (the trees, the birds) ... important as they (unlike people) never let us down. Enjoy your weekend everyone :)

Hi Jarsin. ROSE SWE's heuristic based virus scanner (rhbvs_v5-20.zip, ~4MB) works in DOS and was last updated in 2021. You may want to give that a go, from DOS of course. It can also be run from a DOS prompt (COMMAND.COM window) during a Windows 98 graphic session. Not sure about FreeDOS compatability. http://rose-swe.bplaced.net/dl/ The program provides English output although most documentation is German. Running 'rHBVS.EXE' provides English usage information. Example output below.
