This forum was opened in 2007 and after nearly 16 years needs to be retired. The forum software is long out of date and has become progressively harder to patch in order to run on newer hosting software. I have done what I can to get the forum up in a read-only view, but posting will remain broken. A few old members still hang out on Discord if you'd like to stop by to say hello.
Thanks for the memories. -Lhurgoyf

They're not really virus protectors. They just remove spy-ware.

I've heard avast is good for anti-virus. I just don't bother with it. I keep all my important files and backup of everything on a 40gig, mainly because i tend to reformat every 2 months. (sounds silly, but everything runs so much smoother after every reformat)

runs just about every anti-spyware program out there. Beware... it will auto fix whatever it finds so if you happen to have say, aston installed, it will delete it out of the registry and cause you some headaches. But other than that it is pretty much the best since it runs like 7 different programs on your computer.

When this "window" pops up, and I hit cntrl+alt+delete to turn it off, it doesn't show up as an application.

Instead of going to Applications when you press CTRL-ALT-DEL goto Processes and look for anything fishy. Arrange by username and close the one's on your user first. If you're not sure what they are go here or google them. www.answersthatwork.com and goto the Task List. |

It's still good to have a virus protector. Like I do all my banking online. If I were to get a virus it could mean an empty bank account. |

Well a big box appears in the bottom right hand corner of my computer, and shows up on top of any application I have up. If I click on it it auto sends me to a "virus protection" site, wanting me to DL something else..
