What Does Your Birth Date Mean?

http://www.blogthings.com/whatdoesyourbirthdatemeanquiz/

QUOTE

Your Birthdate: December 25

You excel at anything difficult or high tech.
In other words, you're a total (brilliant) geek.
It's difficult for you to find people worth spending time with.
Which is probably why you'll take over the world with your evil robots!

Your strength: Your unfailing logic

Your weakness: Loving machines more than people

Your power color: Tan

Your power symbol: Pi

Your power month: July

Eminem - Love The Way You Lie ft. Rihanna NEW VIDEO

Fri, 06 Aug 2010 07:06:40 -0500

I've always been an Eminem fan, and his new album is one of his best to date.

This song with Rihanna is my favorite song on the album, and the video is really awesome with Megan Fox and Lost star Dominic Monaghan.

PARENTAL ADVISORY: This video contains adult language (duh, it's Eminem)

I was playing a game on another forum and had a question about it. I went onto Google (Google is the best!) and this forum came up. I was immediately hooked. Can anyone tell me how you gain points to play in the casino? I was playing there this morning with the few points I had from somewhere but couldn't find the way to properly exit the game so I lost all of them - boo-hoo.

See you on the forum!

A woman walks into a bar with her 5 pound Chihuahua and sits down next to this guy, whom she notices is feeling a little bit queasy. A few minutes go buy and the guy looks at her and blows his chunks. He looks down and sees the little dog struggling in a pool of vomit and says, "Whoa, I don't remember eating that!"

Preventing Viruses, Worms, Trojans, and other Spyware

Wed, 09 Jun 2010 07:16:14 -0500

The best prevention for viruses, worms, trojans, and other spyware is:
1. A GOOD ANTI-VIRUS PROGRAM
2. A GOOD FIREWALL PROGRAM
3. Other free anti-malware programs like Malwarebytes AntiMalware, Super AntiSpyware, and Spybot S&D
4. MOST IMPORTANT!! KEEP ALL YOUR SOFTWARE UPDATED REGULARLY!!
5. Antivirus, firewall, and other anti-malware programs are available free at FileHippo.com

Have you updated your Microsoft/Windows software today?
http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/917..._massive_update

This new update is a MAJOR vulnerability patch issued June 8th. Even if you updated recently and have automatic updates turned on I suggest you manually check your Microsoft/Windows Update ASAP!!
I recently updated mine manually on June 7th and have automatic updates turned on and STILL when I checked my updates on the 8th there were 16 updates including the major patch.

Adobe also recently announced major security vulnerabilities they have discovered in their software which they are working to patch. Please keep an eye on this and update your Adobe software as soon as it is available.
http://www.adobe.com/support/security/advi.../apsa10-01.html

I also highly recommend the FileHippo.com FREE Update Checker which automatically scans your computer for plug-ins and software like Java and Flash and many other goodies, tells you if there are updates available, and gives you the links to download the updates.
http://filehippo.com/updatechecker/

TIPS:
If a website pops up a window that says it wants to use an older version of JAVA - ALWAYS SAY NO!! Older versions contain vulnerabilities that are easily exploited to infect your computer. If you have seen this window recently and said YES I suggest you manually run a full scan of your computer with your antivirus program, Malwarebytes AntiMalware, Super AntiSpyware, and Spybot S&D as soon as possible.

If you get a program on your computer that you did not install that constantly pops up and says you are infected, won�t let you run any programs, won�t let you download or update your antivirus, and says you have to buy their software to clean your computer DO NOT DO IT. This is most likely a fake antivirus program designed to scare you into buying their software.

If your search engine result links are being blocked or redirected to a different search engine or web pages that are not the ones listed in the search result then your browser has been hijacked.

If you suspect you have been infected and are not sure how to clean it yourself check with your local computer geek and if you don't have one feel free to ask me. I'll be happy to help however I can and point you in the right direction.

There is a TON of new nasty stuff out there these days. I've seen far too many friends and family get infected recently (including myself which is rare cuz my computer is like Ft. Knox). So please take all the necessary steps to be safe and to keep your computers up to date, clean, and healthy.

Please forward this information to your friends and family members as you feel necessary.

Good Luck,
ChatterBox

Swine flu virus starting to look less threatening

Fri, 01 May 2009 16:42:36 -0500

ATLANTA (AP) -- The swine flu virus that has frightened the world is beginning to look a little less ominous. New York City officials reported Friday that the swine flu still has not spread beyond a few schools. In Mexico, very few relatives of flu victims seem to have caught the virus....

What Are You Listening To? YouTube Version

Wed, 14 Mar 2007 16:13:14 -0500

Here's a NEW twist on one of my favorite topics here.

Post the song you are listening to and then find a video for it on YouTube and insert the video too...

I think this will make for a much more interesting version of this topic.

Tiger Woods will come back

Fri, 08 Jan 2010 03:41:11 -0600

Tiger Woods will come back as strong a player as ever

Woods has admitted that he cheated on his wife and says he has decided to take an indefinite break from the game to try to save his marriage.

"Tiger's obviously a very strong-minded individual and I don't think he will play any differently when he comes back," Pavin said on a visit to London. "He's come back from injuries and setbacks and done fine."

Pavin, who became the first non-European to receive the British Professional Golfers' Association annual recognition award for services to golf, will lead a U.S. team defending the title at Celtic Manor in Wales from Oct. 1-3 next year.

He did not elaborate on whether Woods, who missed the American triumph at Valhalla last year because of knee problems, would return to the team. "To not have the best player in the world weakens the team," he said. "That does not mean we can't win without him because obviously we did last time, but you always want the best player in the world."

Pavin said Woods first had to resolve his marital problems.

"My main concern is for his family. My view of him as a golfer is not going to change at all and my view of him as a human being is not going to change either," Pavin said. "Everybody makes mistakes. I'm not going to sit here in judgment.

"I just hope things work out for him and Elin. It's obviously an emotional time for him, but I think he's going to be fine."

Meanwhile, former British Open and PGA champion Padraig Harrington, who has also played on three winning European Ryder Cup teams, said he was "amazed" by Woods' admission of infidelity. Harrington said he regularly stayed in the same hotels as Woods while at tournaments and felt sorry for him because he believed he led a quiet life.

"Most of us would go out to dinner at tournaments but Tiger couldn't go out," the Irishman told Friday's editions of the Irish Independent. "Living in a goldfish bowl, there was so little he could do and I kind of felt sorry for him in that sense."

Pablo Martin has his sights set on claiming a second victory in seven days after taking the clubhouse lead in the South African Open.

Martin, the only player to win European Tour titles as an amateur and a professional, won the Alfred Dunhill Championship on Sunday. And the 23-year-old is on track for back-to-back wins after adding a 68 to his opening 65 at Pearl Valley on Friday.

That gave the Spaniard an 11-under-par halfway total of 133 and a two-shot lead over Denmark's Anders Hansen, who carded a 69.

Starting on the back nine, Martin birdied the 10th, 12th and 16th before running up a double-bogey six on the 17th.

However, he bounced straight back with a birdie on the 18th to reach the turn in 34 and, after another bogey on the first, rolled in a hat-trick of birdies from the third.
