my antivirus rant

[stoned-trout]

call me paranoid ,but does anyone else believe the same folks selling us antivirus software are themselves creating some viruses????..'''.I mean it would make sense as it keeps them in business........when my Norton anti virus expired I tried avg anti virus which has worked ok for me in the past.....now they make you allow popups to try/buy new software as a term of using it...well I clicked one popup and not that long after my computer went haywire and crashed several times along with some program kept popping up analizing and scanning my computer and I couldn't stop it...I don't believe in coincidence and the most simple answer is usually the right one......

Sorry to hear of your problems..

Sorry to hear of your problems..

2 things ....

Get a backup device which automatically backs your system.

Stay off the porn sites until you do.

Peace

I'm pretty sure its just computer nerds seeking revenge for a couple of reasons:
1. they're pissed off feminazi's who think porn is degrading women's bodies
2. competing porn sites and/or set up to make you pay for porn
3. they have a narscistic complex that needs to be fueled by ruining other peoples computers.

just some stoner thoughts. sorry your computer got screwed up!

Computers are cheap now a days, hard drives too.

The rig I use for the internets is only used for that.
I reformat it ever two weeks. Hard line, no network,
no files copied without a scrub.

Hope is not a plan, lol.

 

[stoned-trout]

it wasn't from a porn site lol.....

I had a pic of my virus solution but can't find it. Took my desktop out to the dry lake bed when i lived in nevada an shot the shitzel outta it with my AR. Virus terminated!

Best feeling EVER!

Use Microsoft Security Essentials. All others are crap/bloatware.

^^^
yeah, i use that too after years of AVG, Avast, Avira, etc.

ClamWin Free Antivirus is another alternative.

paying for antivirus protection is unnecessary imho.

sounds like you have a "rouge" anti-virus and if that's the case most programs won't get em cause they mimic real antivirus and confuse your computer, until it locks you out of your computer.

Malwarebytes might help.

I used to get viruses downloading Lindsay Lohan movies.

To me Lindsy looks like she fell out of some crazy tree and hit every branch on her way down.

The latest crazy lie that bitch said was that she had to push gurneys with body bags on them around that morgue where she was sentenced to work. And one body bag she pushed around was Whitney Houston. But then the problem was that Whitney was never put in any body bag.

The whole story seems kinda morbid but just goes to show what a crazy bitch she is.

Off subject hijack over. Sorry about that , I just found that whole thing really strange.

every time I have used an anti-virus, the computer craps on me.

since 2000 have not used an anti-virus, and everything is fine. I don't use on-line banking or keep sensitive info on the computer anyways, so I don't worry.

anything I want to keep, I'll back up in an external drive.

the protection in the newer windows is pretty good too; firewall, virus, spyware and malware protection comes built in for windows 7, which is pretty good imo.

set your browser to erase cookies and temporary files each time you close it too.

and clean your system with the windows tools every now and then.

peace

Survives most porn sites too...

 

[stoned-trout]

the funny part is it truly wasn't from a porn related infection ..it was after installing the new avg anti virus...I definitely didn't have a boner ...lol..it wasn't avg per say but it was from one of the popups provided due to their new terms.....peace.. I can chill now and make my own damn CLOUD lol

I'm willing to bet you weren't looking at porn since you posted about it and if you were I think you would've thought twice. that being said, thanks for the recommendation on websites I will have to check it out later.

 

[stoned-trout]

hey when I want porn I go to the doctor and see the nurse ,,,,pornmd....I don't go that often but I am a guy, and there is free porn and a filter so you don't waste time with 30 second clips.........YEEHAW
