I'm a faggot who never uses antivirus software and always has his firewall turned off.

Really, I have yet to catch a virus. It's just common sense to avoid them :L

No need to be a douche, jackass Lol one would assume if you don't have your firewall up and have no anti virus program you are the idiot in this case and since you didn't have any of those how am i suppose to know you have a script enforcer? (Which my anti-virus has script blocker built in :P)

Macs are really for people who don't know too much about computers and are filthy stinking rich.

I don't have anything against them for older people, or younger children, but for the average college student/gamer/ect, I would try to convince them to get a windows-based PC :L

No need to be a douche, jackass

That's how you always talk to other people though.

In most of your posts, when someone says something, you go "LOL" or "LMAO" and start talking to them like they're an idiot. It really started to piss me off.

And like I said, it's just common logic to not wander off to websites like that, it's like the browser-based version of steam phishing attempts.

O.o I do the Lol so people know not to take the post seriously thats why i include that Lol i don't do it to make it seem like you're idiot or anything if thats how you take it then i apologize for that...

Yes it is common logic however some trusted website run popup ad's that are not trusted that contain these "bad things" Thats why i mentioned it.

I just tried out Vipre antivirus, I used to have AVG but its been getting very recource intensive as of late.

I've been pretty impressed with it so far, it doesn't do all that marketing gimmick crap, it just looks for virus's and that's it. Never seemed to consume much cpu or ram usage at all.


Overall it feels very lightweight and effective. Plus they seem to update the virus definitions about 10 times a day.

If you are in the market for a new anti-virus id go with vipre.

If your 1337 h4xx0r sk1lls protect you from all virus's what the hell are you doing in a anti-virus thread anyway.

You're on a Mac. That's a pretty big embarrassment to call yourself a gamer while solely operating off of Mac.

And death, dont think you're invincible to virus's just because you 'dont click on random websites' and use private trackers. There's thousands of more ways to get a virus then that. Unless you are running a very shitty computer or some sort, Avast free edition would not hurt to defend against obvious virus's that you wont know about. You're not pretty smart running your computer virus-protection free. Even Windows Firewall would help.

Never the less calling shawn a fucking idiot for surfing the web.

Its kind of a fact that mac users think there superior.
And the Pc users who ACTUALLY know about tech are like wtf. (me)
Anyways, I think windows is more user friendly then macs.

Mac and there fancy ass animation with min and maximizing. And all the short cuts and crap.
Windows is better for people who dont know what there doing.
The only problem is people are stupid and they get viruses its fully there fault but they blame windows.

I never said I was. I said I just knew how to avoid them.
And if you missed the last 1241414 times I said it, my PC is absolute shit. I have to save as many resources as I can. I only have 1GB.
My firewall is off for ease of use so I don't have to fiddle with annoying port forwarding or the "ALLOW THIS PROGRAM?" prompt every time I use something that connects to the network, which really makes it a hassle with servers since I don't have monitors for them.

If your 1337 h4xx0r sk1lls protect you from all virus's what the hell are you doing in a anti-virus thread anyway.
Because this wasn't an anti-virus thread before.
