    Quite some stuff these days. In 2002, malicious software and drive-by-downloads were a joke!

    in 2003 i dont think the windows firewall and microsoft updates was on by default, and i was going to warez sites and other bad sites and got lots of malware and a dialer, i finally got rid of the dialer and i went crazy and deleted all parts of the dialer i found, i was deleting it manually, but i dont recommend anybody deleting what they think are the malware manually because it may be files needed by the operating system.

    i use antivir, and has stopped using avg because of linkscanner or what it is called, because it slowed down my google searches.

    i dont trust superantispyware, but maybe without a reason and is not using it, spybot seems it is made from the heart (it is good i mean) and not for making money, i have thought about donating to spybot but i am not sure how i do it.

    i had kazaa and didnt now it had included malware, but i saw something kalled gain on my computer wich was gator, and then someone downloaded ad-aware on my computer and it found lots of malware, then i visited a site called spywareinfo and learned a lot about malware from there, and there i found spybot and spywareblaster i think. and learned about the hostsfile from other sites, and in this year 2008 i think, i joined my first security forum and that was hphosts forum and made a thread there about spybot and the hostsfile. it is here if someone is interested: http://forum.hosts-file.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=430

    is revo a point to have for people when not installing and uninstalling software all the time? i see it has other features too.

    other firewalls than windows firewall is annoying i think, and windows firewall has never let anything in on my computer, but it lets everything go out.
    Well I have to agree, because AVG's LinkScanner does take some time to scan. I personally use McAfee SiteAdvisor 26.6.

    blues, Terminator and drragostea are the same person. I use the Tahoma font.

    blues, malware is not installed onto your computer just like that. It's user decision. Sometimes careless mistakes are responsible. Keygens and cracks, I'm sure it's 100% infested with trojans.

    Trust me I know. I've purposely attempted to infect my computer, because I've never had a infection before. (I planned to reformat anyways). I downloaded AVG 8.0 IS with firewall. AVG warned me of a "IRCBot".

    Really, you got to know how to distinguish some stuff. A zipped movie, say like Simpsons: The Movie, for only 133 kbs? Com'on think about it.

    Actually, I do like SAS. I would say it's pretty strong. I hated it one time, but after removing SmitFraud on my aunt's badly infected computer, no more pop-ups. I was like O.O. I'm not recommending it, just a review.

    Window's default built-in firewall wouldn't be that strong. I would say it's average, compared to a piece of paper. Anything could get through. Not anything. :P I use Comodo Pro, despite the countless pop-ups it's given me. Comodo Pro aced the leak tests ^_^.

    Kazaa is bundled with malware.

    I use REVO UNINSTALLER because the default Add/Remove Programs window leaves stuff behind.

    drragostea: malware can be automatically installed on the computer just by visiting malicious sites, in 2003 when i got lots of malware , i wasnt getting questions about if i want to install something from the websites, it was automatically installed without me knowing it, and i wasnt doing anything, i am not talking about the malware i got from kazaa now.

    i will just say NEVER download software from filsharing sites/networks almost everything i have downloaded includes malware, but most are trojans, i have almost never seen viruses but they could be hidden from the antiviruses, i dont know. most of the trojans where found using antivir, avg and avast and a-squared was detecting more trojans than the other antispywares, but they may be false positives. it wasnt so easy to test the files and cds with pirated software and keygens with spybot because it cant scan cds and dvds, and it didnt scan the download folder from utorrent, i dont know why, maybe spybot doesnt scan everything, and it doesnt have rightclick scan.

    Alright, blues to first answer your questions.
    Terminator and I use different avatars. This means icons for our profiles. We can't be the same person if you joined at different dates and have different signatures can we?


    The above is Tahoma font. This font is the font used by Terminator. See?

    Why the heck were you testing crack and pirated CD's? You know, technically it's illegal to be using or distributing pirated or cracked versions (of anything).

    P2P and file sharing is definitely a NOT must.

    It's a 100% (make the 110%) guarantee that any crack or keygen is infested with malware. I used to say: "You don't get free stuff by not doing anything".

    Well of course, Kaspersky's $39.00 (USD) Internet Security Suites are not there to download for free. Of course there's a price.

    LV-426 is the name of the planet in the Alien Series where the Aliens were found.

    Sci-Fi series? I knew it x].

    I thought it was something like the codenames that NASA gives unknown planets. Such as Pegasi-52.
