Microsoft Security Essentials or Avast Home are free and never bother you.

I use the free version of Avast and the free version of Comodo firewall because I'm a cheap bastard. I also use Firefox with the NoScript extension.

People seems to go on about NOD32 and Kaspersky antivirus, but those are pay for solutions and I couldn't be bothered pirating them (you have to re-crack them every time there is a program update).

In my paranoid moments I think that the manufacturers of AV are behind most viruses themselves.  :-\

Going by alternative news sources, rumours suggest that's actually true.

It wouldn't surprise me in the least.

Existence actually has two broad meanings despite its apparent meaningless. The constant reconciliation of all its parts, and the conservation of any closed system as a whole.

Morality can be extrapolated from these meanings to make these two commandments of godless morality: 1). Be in harmony with one another and 2). Care for the environment.

Ha, I actually tried out Kaspersky once and found that after I installed it, I couldn't browse to The Pirate Bay any more. Uninstall it and I could again. Yeah it's anti-virus software, not anti-pirate software.

Fuckers.

I like baths and showers too!

Do you think it is an AS thing?  :asthing:

:LMAO:

It should probably be in the DSM.

Avast is a useless piece of garbage and a total memory hog.

What version is that? I'm trialling v5 on my Win XP Media PC and running v4.8 everywhere else.

Why, yes! Got to be clean and fragrant so I can go to work and get splattered with fish, bleach, and garbage!  :lol:

There would be little point in the cleansing if there was nothing to cleanse. :laugh:

It was older than that, on a friend's machine. That and apple iTunes kept that PC about as fast as  a 286 running Windows 2.

Pondering why people had never heard of the DSM-IV-TR before signing up for psychology - abnormal behaviour. Also wondering why people have to have in-depth conversations in the doorways of the library.

Wondering to what extent I overdid my creation an application of the list/filter features on facebook.  Also regretting that I had gotten so used to saying "Yeah, whatever, that's nice honey, now go cook me dinner, I know there's arsenic in it, I dont care anymore" to facebook's updates that I didn't realize they'd actually added something useful till it got directly pointed out to me.

You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.
