felt obligated to post this since i got some nasty lil virus from a popup that even when u clicked on the x to close it out took over my internet. I bought Kaspersky antivirus(reccommened by the geek squad)..the virus wouldnt let it load...ditto with mcafee and Norton...So I almost went and bought a mac just to be done with the silly b.s even tho i only use the comp for basic functions like coming on here...

Long Story Short...geek squad wanted 199 to maybe fix it and i had to leave the computer with them for a minimum of 4 days..Called Norton Live and they somehow took control of my computer thru the interwebz with my consent and after 3 and a half hours of them working constantly(i could watch them) they finally got rid of it!

Geek squad is a rip off... I just got rid of the Trojan Vundo.H virus... AVG, Malwarebytes, Spyguard wouldn't touch it... I downloaded SpyNoMore and it zapped it... took me a while, but it worked...

Don't know where I could have got a virus from... I mean, all I do is work stuff on the internet... :rolleyes:

Huddle Boob Inspector tasks do not technically fall under the work category.

You lie!

Biscuit, I down loaded a Vundo Fix tool a while back when I had a Vundo problem. It stopped its processes and deleted some.

I highly recommend Malware Antibytes free edition, Super Anti Spyware free edtion. These two tools can solve just about anything.

Their forums are great for information too.

yeah, I tried Vundo fix and it didn't find anything? Malwarebytes would find it, delete it, but then it would come right back.

Thats because the virus takes up residence in your registry and re-creates itself on startup even if you remove its original host location that Malwarebytes finds. There's a tool out there called GMER that will find the hidden registry entry for the rootkit so you can then run regedit from the command line and rename/delete the little bastard so it can't function again.

That's actually probably the #1 reason people get viruses. They get horny and go looking for free porn and see a pop-up saying they need to install this activex horseshit to continue, and they're just like "SURE, FINE, MY DICK IS HARD AND I NEED TO JERK OFF, fug HURRY UP. poo WHY ARE THERE 10,000 DANCING DICKS ON MY SCREEN NOW?"

Just sign up for puretna or empornium. Much safer.

      Would you trade for Justin Fields?

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      I would take Fields as a backup if I didn't have to give up much for him. I think he has earned and could be a legit backup in the league behind a very durable starting QB who doesn't miss a ton of games.  That's no knock of Fields as I think Russel Wilson is done and feel like at this point Fields will take the job back from Wilson before seasons out. Of course I'm biased because Russel Wilson gives me the creeps with his extreme level of awkwardness and just plain weirdness. He is about as fake as they get and apparently a master at convincing others that he still has anything left. In Seattle I don't know if it was his skill or guys like Tyler Lockett who didn't get enough credit for coming down with his hail Marys he would just randomly throw up.

      TNF: Saints vs Broncos

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      He is a talented fat guy hence where his name comes from. Also lived hard but cleaned himself up and appears to be a good human being trying to give back much like Post Malone. Both of those two seem genuine as hell to me even though I don't listen to either's music.

      Taking on Watson contract if the compensation is right

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      The whole scenario is dumb and wouldn't possibly work for the Browns so it will never happen. Mr. happy Ending is stuck up in that poo hole they call Cleveland. I know that city all too well as it's where I grew up. Watson and Cleveland deserve one another. Both aren't worth a poo.
