Ghosting in image is using Norton ghost to make an image of your computer...
When it was purchased the 7200.11 was the best 500gb drive you could buy, and the Maxtor is 3 years old
And it matters a lot if you paid for something, and I do actually live with a lawyer and my Dad is a policeman
No ghosting doesn't mean you used Norton Ghost there are lots of programs to use.
LOL well I used True Acronis Image not Norton.
What your saying is, because you have no anti virus, you don't get virrii?
Thats like saying becuase you pulled out at the last second, you can't get a girl pregnant!
Laughable
I know when I have a virus because my PC screws up and I the net slows down, you get pop ups and bad bad naughty exe files in the system32 folder. It's not like sex at all, how can you compare sex to computers are you a horny robot who likes to pull out at the last second.
So Nate, how are you going to execute your 1337 virus beating skills on a netbook that is 260 miles away?
If it's your girlfriend using it not you then it's going to get a virus of some sort at some point or other.
Format.
From the sounds of it, your uncle was looking at the logs that show internet activity/attacks.... unless its configured properly, it will show Lots of "attacks", most are just from your ISP/sites visited to check your pc is still there....
However, a good anti virus will only pop a msg if it does actually find something odd... apart from the odd false positive... that fact you get no such warnings is because you have no such detection software....

Can't watch that need WMP 11 but I have a seperate bank account for cyber crime so if they rob me they won't get much.
Wait.... Nate has a girlfriend?
Yup met her on cs:s.
Linx that's exactly how I feel there are better ways to protect yourself than using an AV.
Well, that's because they're detecting the viruses you can not see for yourself? Your logic is pretty flawed in this one, sorry mate.
If I can't see it then I don't care it's there. I will notice it though usually because your PC goes funny like something not quite right.
Anyone who doesn't have an AV program at least installed (maybe not resident protection) to be able to find the viruses and then says "I never get them" are either stupid, lying, arrogant to the point of stupidity or a mixture of all three. The firewall (zonealarm) helps to stop hackers from implanting a virus, the antivirus detects and removes the virus. Honestly I can't belive anybody can be this stupid!
I never get them though, why can't you beleive me. Maybe your the arragont one calling people liers just because you probs got like 100 viruses lolz.
Isnt ZoneAlarm rubbish? I know AVG is, I wouldn't be happy if someone installed this carp on my computer.
I used Windows firewall and Nod32, not that they have anything to do, I haven't had a single virus in over 2 years, they are there though for protection as in 'just in case' better safe than sorry and all that.
Fair play and your proof viruses arn't as bad as they used to be, you can thank firefox for that I think.
I'd never suggest that you would fall foul of things such as replying to "peypal sevizes" but that isn't what I said anyway. I implied that a PC running with no protection can quite easily become part of a zombie botnet which will then be used to send these emails; amongst other things.
And no, checking what active services are running isn't enough to detect this.
Well you have a point there though you gotta be stupid enough to become a zombie computer in the first place.
If you can't get rid of the virus why not format, I mean come on you get them every 2 years if your unlucky.
HAI GUISE I DELTEDED MAI ANITIRUS AN I DUN AVE NO VIRUSES COZ NUFFIN IS POPIN UP. MUST BE A OK DEN.
Wait for the next thread...
"My 26 year old dad got a virus what do I do?"
LMFAO your a bad lad, a bad lad.
Right, come on admit it who made this account up just to take the mic?
Seriously though guys, why is anyone bothering with this any more (I have no idea why I read it).
- There are other threads over OCuk with this guy saying hes 21 living with his mum.
- He has no job and £4k+ lying around,
- he also has a kid whos is 7 and a 21yr old girlfriend.
- He claims he knows more about computing than his so called girlfriend's dad who works for IBM and decided AV would be a good idea (mmmm might be possible, but not likely)
- The man has an EEE pc which he won't put AV on
- he also has a lone WD Raptor (which is faster than anything else on the planet - transfering all in less than 5 secs) which is connected to it....
- He ghosts and image, doesn't use Norton Ghost - therefore doesn't pay for it...
Need any more. SPAMMER. There isn't a word of truth in the entire thread from this OP called "nate"
Aaah how I have waited to qoute you sir.
Yes I'm 21 living with my mum, got a problem?
Yes I have no job, lucky you if you have one.
I don't have a kid, someone assumed I did because I wrote a thread for my step dad and couldn't be bothered to explain so just said need a laptop for my son which I apologised for in that thread.
I never claimed I know more than her step dad, he is very good with computers I remember when he drew me a network diagram and it flew straight past my head.
Yes so what if I won't put AV on an EEEPC, I don't use sensitive info on it and 5 seconds format if I get infected and can't remove it.
I do have a WD Raptor 300gb and my image is 600mb Nlited windows so it installs lightning fast and 5 secs is a figure of speech of course it doesn't take 5 secs lmao.
Don't even use norton ghost so just shows what you really know only spammer here is you because all my words are 100% truth. Why did you add qoutation marks to my name, are you implying I'm not called nate. Sorry I don't have time to own you anymore and send you my birth certificate.
Wonder what you would do if I told you my step dad is called Ian Huntley lmfao
So you end up switching it off anyway....
