O/T Poxy dial ups

[Bobby]

How is it possible that you can click on one wrong porno web site and poxy windows 98 will let a program be downloaded with no permission, installed on the desktop, placed under program files and then run without permission?? If I hit control alt delete, the program doesn't even appear in the list EVEN THOUGH IT'S RUNNING! I downloaded all the so-called 'updates' from Microsoft but still the operating system lets this kind of crap happen again and again and again...

I hate you Bill Gates!!

But I hate even more, the weasely little wankers that designs those pop-up self-installing dial-ups! These people are lower than drug dealers. Worse than car clampers. How can you justify your existence to the world when all you are doing is irritating and alarming people just to line your own pockets. Jesus, these people are worse than politicians. And that really is saying something.

Sorry about this off topic rant, but who the fuck else would listen? I can't find Bill Gate's number in the phone book.

Look in yellow pages under,World Owners.

Go into run then type regedit.exe then search for it find the fucka, and delete it asap, sorted.

....but be careful with regedit: if you're inexperienced, get someone to supervise you.
...those pop-up merchants are worse than......ESTATE AGENTS !!!!

[mike johnson]

...but still better than telemarketers!! (Assuming ya'll have those in the UK)

God, yes: next time I'm gonna report them to the cops for stalking......

Throw the PC in the bin and get a super cool new Macintosh running OSX. It looks the mutt's nuts and the OSX camp is comparatively free of pathetic, slimy, cheapskate, idiots writing shitty little programs to fuck your operating system about.

" These people are lower than drug dealers. Worse than car clampers."

What, even worse then vegetarians? ...The fuckin' scumbags!

Guess now,s not a good time to ask you for a loan eh Dibbsy?

Surf for porn, look for freebies, etc. etc. and you'll get not only Pop-Ups, but a whole lot of spyware self-installed as well.
The answer is either don't do it (which I guess is like saying don't wank) or, get your machine sorted properly by an expert who REALLY knows what he is doing.
As for O.D's plug for Macs - yes they are relatively free from the above simply because Mac only has a tiny fraction of the market. PC's are infinately more versatile and user-friendly, so don't go out and buy another machine - sort out the one you have, PROPERLY.

I have no problems with my equipment (DON'T SAY IT!) because I have the great fortune to have an EXPERT who regularly services it, keeps me up-to-date with anti-spyware, bugs and viruses and all sorts of other things I do not understand but am more thgan happy to pay for in order to keep running free and clear.

Not much different than a car.

I, too have a PC-care expert, known as Mrs JJ....
.....but I bet yours is a lot cheaper
