I really don't want to bring back the ECONOMY topic again, but you know what I just realized? I went to a 99 cents store this morning to buy a pack of pens for college, then I see that every aisle I go, everything is $1.25 now. I mean what the F. Change the name to "$1.25 Store". I should have gone to Dollar Tree.

Sorry for the double post, but Filefront is supposed to be gone as of yesterday. Yet, I still see it up.

Be cognizant of what websites you go on, and also make sure your computer is up to date and virus and spyware protection up to date, cuz this Conflicker virus may hit 15,000,000 computers.

I'm not an idiot :P I'm wary of sites I go on, and I scanned all of the computers in my house that are on Windows and none are infected.

I'll try to keep this off as much as I can tomorrow. Why exactly do people waste their time making viruses?

one sign that you've been infected with the conflicker virus is if you attempt to visit microsoft.com and it's inaccessible

there are more signs, but i've forgotten what they are.

No hiding here... I will use my PCs just as normal tomorrow. There's nothing to be scared of. :biggrin:

Well, I am worried about this virus. I just got several malignant viruses on this computer which I bought brand new in August 2007. I got them some time in January and had to have the computer reformatted (fortunately, I had everything backed up!). I later had Norton 360 and Norton Ghost (software that backs up files) installed, so I am ready for anything that comes my way. However, since the last virus I had came in and disabled my security software (at the time earlier this year it was McAfee), I am not 100% confident that I am safely hiding.

I'll try to keep this off as much as I can tomorrow. Why exactly do people waste their time making viruses?
I am not really sure exactly why. Some do it because they have too much time on their hands, and some just don't have lives, so they ruin other peoples' lives. Again, I do not know for sure, but it seems to me like there is a psychological aspect to it.
