![[image loading]](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y155/rpf289/Miscellaneous/holyshitwtfnorton.jpg) Wow, what the fuck. I couldn't sleep, so I figured I'd jump online really quick and see what was going on. At first I figured maybe reformatting somehow didn't get rid of that last virus I had, but then I realized it was just Norton. By the way, I took the screenshot after I'd already closed about 30 of these windows. Fucking bullshit. So, to my point: How the fuck do I get rid of this program? I've heard it's terribly difficult. | ||

No. * Yes, #'s (1) and (2) contradict each other, but that's because a dollar spent on a Mac is a dollar wasted. No offense to anyone here who owns a Mac, but you're an idiot. I hate Mac's. My entire public school system used Mac's up until my high school, but then we just had Dell's with those shitty keyboards. Fucking tax dollars wasted. I've never paying taxes, fuck that. | ||

I own a Dell, but I work for Apple, and the Mac OSX does have some things that put it ahead of PCs, like no viruses, more stable OS, etc. etc., but PCs are ahead in other aspects, namely gaming and compatibility, etc. So don't take what I said too seriously. | ||

The most annoying thing about norton is how it makes your recycle bin into that ungodly 'UnErase Wizard' | ||

To purge Norton from your system (a must before installing other AV programs), download this: Norton Removal Tool If you have trouble running in normal mode, run it in safe mode. The in normal mode again. | ||

It's a small and sexy programm that list you all the things starting up on boot... and let you disable or remove them from boot. There are like million places within Windows to make a program launch on start up, this is the easiest way to list them all! | ||

for the best antivirus, go for AVK or F-secure if you have 512MB+ RAM (since they use triple engines) ,for lesser RAM go for NOD32, personally i use NOD32 even though i have 1GB RAM but it kicks ass. | ||
