[AccessD] OT: New features on Experts-Exchange

Hi Gustav, there are ads??  My ad blocker is working very good because I
do not see any ads.  Anyway I do not think I can browse on their
site--though I have never tried.  When I click a link from Google, for
example, I see the question that is related to my problem and then EE says
something like, To see the answer click here.  I must register somehow
either for a free 7-days worth of knowledge or pay.  I have learned my
lesson by now that when ever I see an EE link in Google that I just pass
over it.  :-\

I find that using Google wisely will eventually get the job done plus I
tend to sometimes accidentally find something else I was looking for. 
That makes it even more rewarding.
