    I didn't know who that was. That's the last time I google a random name out of curiosity.
  2. Just as a quick heads up, the trojan writers have realized the number of folks migrating to Firefox is growing exponentially and they've started directly targetting it now. Keep everything as patched as possible. I recently had a friend who got a FireFox targetted downloader trojan. He had 250+ viruses and other trojans within 10 minutes. Keep those firewalls on and patch, patch and patch again!
  3. It sounds to me like you are suffering from a lack of security Patches from Microsoft. It's probable you have picked up (or have been identified as vulnerable) by one of the more pervasive exploits that can be corrected by patching your OS. You can: 1. Install Virus Protection, Update with the latest Virus Definitions and see if you can catch. quarantine / clean a virus. 2. Download and install Spybot Search and Destroy. It can clean out a LOT of browser exploits. 3. Perform a "destructive" restore wiping and rebuilding your OS install from scratch, then making OS patches your top priority once rebuilt. If you are on dialup - You may be in for a tough run of things. 4. If you are on dialup, and you are running Windows XP Service Pack 1 (or earlier), have a friend download and burn Service Pack 2 for you. This will fix a lot of exploits and potentially help you get online safely. 5. Install a personal firewall on your system that could prevent an exploit re-infecting you after a restore. Those are my top suggestions. Good luck.

    Good morning everyone. It's another sunny day of mayhem! 3Loves: Well done on finding that tripod! DonnaB: If it is a mating ritual, it didn't work last night. I'll try again today! Vinesqueen: Clearly you have built up a tolerance to healthy foods. Keep slamming that Pasta down girl! The_best_me: Who the hell said you were allowed to laugh? Shush woman. "Just" Paul: Yes. We left you out deliberately. Neener Neener Neeeener. I don't think I missed anyone. I'm trying the "Respond to everyone that posted" approach. It could work as a Killa. cheese Recipies: I actually have formulated the concept of cheese as a beverage. I believe if you make a thin fondue you could drink it, giving you maximum cheese consumption capabilities.

    Good grief, they aren't allowed Tazers either!! They aren't even allowed pointy sticks. Though as a self defence technique, your house keys are quite excellent for gouging into an attackers eyeball. Grin.

    Well it was good while it lasted. Now, to the world at large, I have an important question. What is belly button lint made of?
  7. dawg replied to Morsaille's topic in Rants & Raves
    So long as I don't have to pick up the bill, go ahead. As a side note, I refuse to be prominent. I am merely taking a day off from obscurity. I find the irony of a thread called "Thread Killer" becoming one of the most active more than pleasing
  8. dawg replied to Morsaille's topic in Rants & Raves
    I saw it. The sequel was better.

    Great, I've got a Stalker. I've always wanted one of those.
  10. dawg replied to Morsaille's topic in Rants & Raves
    I don't think you can MUHAHAHAHAHAAHAR! (You can ask for it to be locked, which means you would win the Thread Killer title, but we'd sulk).

    Erm... he's a tripod? *Boggles* Telly is being a meanie head. I rename her Trolly.
  12. Last I heard, her computer dun broke.

    I'm good with Limey That's not even close to insulting. Brit lumps me in with the Scottish and the Welsh, and I'm neither. Hell. Next you'll call me a European! then we WILL have a falling out.
  14. dawg replied to Morsaille's topic in Rants & Raves
    not just no. hell no.
  15. I half expected both displays to be showing some kind of cheese related screen saver.
  16. dawg replied to Morsaille's topic in Rants & Raves
    *pat pat pat* Yes. Nana == Banana. I have no knowledge of "Nana~"'s affect on the bowel system. Though I'm sure given her cheese fetish she has plenty of opportunity to explore the wonderful world of Bowel....Non-Movement. Hmm, interesting, I've not considered the indepth discussion of bowel movements as a thread killer. Something definately worth exploring. Well. Exploring the concept.... not the bowel movements themselves.

    Wow, You... really like cheese. I remember cheese. Parmesan is my only cheese product now. Sighs a very sad "no cheese" sigh.

    So do I but I find it gives me constipation.
  19. dawg replied to Morsaille's topic in Rants & Raves
    What kind?
  20. You CAN have your cake, and eat it too.
  21. dawg replied to Morsaille's topic in Rants & Raves
    So how about dropping "PSusan" because it's been used in an insulting fashion since it's creation?
  22. dawg replied to Morsaille's topic in Rants & Raves
    Ooo excellent. I can convert the back of the Expidition into a mobile operating theater! I would have thought our patented RNY was quite clear given the budget approach to our Gastric Banding principle. We use only the highest quality Swingline staplers to reduce your stomach capacity. We're also producing a revolutionary new procedure. This is a unique WLS only available at the Dawg Clinic. We insert a valve system in your throat that you can simply throw the switch on. This causes a 100% bypass and the food you eat simply drops through a conveniant opening in your throat into a waste bag. When you need some actual nutrition you simply switch the other way and the food goes into your stomach. Absolute genius or what?? Now, who's willing to be the first to enter the clinical trial?? :mad:
  23. We give the medical industry and fast food franchises a stable employment base. We can show empathy for fat people, after we stop being fat.
  24. dawg replied to Morsaille's topic in Rants & Raves
    Ah, That was actually the best attempt yet to kill this thread. Make a deliberate and snide "for real" attack. Bravo. I say that now we just charge on madly and ignore that snide-aside and try and kill this thread in a much more entertaining fashion. *steps up to the plate* I recommend RNY Revisions for everyone!!

    A kubaton can indeed bring someone to their knees. It's also considered an offensive weapon when used. Are those legal in Aus? I've trained with one a fair bit. If properly used it is excellent. The trick of course with anything, is using it properly.
