You put everything in code tags. That (surprise surprise) shows everything verbatim. Here is what you posted without the code tag:

As you can see - on a light background, it is very hard to see titles posted in white.

Sorry about that, I have changed the color from white to black.

But you left the code tags.  Do you see how your information is still in a box?
 
Also, by stipulating color black... if a user happens to use a dark skin mod, then the black letters would still be black - and thus, hard to read on a dark background.  I suggest you leave it to auto (which is default) and it will be black on light background and white on dark background.
 
This is what I think you want:

Also, I'd suggest that if you want feedback that you post a little more than a template.

It is in [code=auto:0] Tags so a user can Copy & Paste the template and use it.

Does anyone use a separate anti-virus and anti-malware program anymore? Since malware includes viruses, I see no need. I have several W7 and W8 systems here, but for my primary computer,

 

OS: Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit

UAC: Customized

 

Security: Windows Defender, Windows Firewall, MBAM, Windows Update (to keep Windows and WD current) and WinPatrol PLUS

Privacy: Strong passwords (including to Windows login), strong wireless passphrase, MAC filtering

Backup: Repurposed old XP system used as a local NAS, blocked from the Internet via router to prevent access by badguys

Extensions: AdBlock Plus for IE

Default Browser: IE11. Also use Pale Moon and Chrome.

Password Manager: SplashID

Other security assets: Me (the user and always weakest link in security).
