What programs do you use to secure your PC?
Time
I was wondering what programs you guys use for protection against viruses, worms, trojans, spyware, adware, phishing, and hackers.

I've used avast! (antivirus) in combination with Spybot - search and destroy (anti spyware).
I also used Norton internet security in the past but that has been over 2 years ago.

Currently I'm trying a trial of NOD32, but I had no program installed for spyware. So today I installed Spybot and did a scan and it found a lot of threats. But Spybot doesn't work very well on my PC.

I'm looking for a single program that protects against all threats. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Blu-ray Disc or HD-DVD?

By artifacts you mean the blockiness right? I'm not sure but I think the artifacting of mpeg 2 of retail dvds is mostly caused by bad single pass encode(r)s. If I encode my home movies with Cinema Craft encoder, use the right settings and a multiple pass encode there are absolutely no artifacts (and I film in 16:9 anamorphic). Also in my "fast scenes" with a lot of movement, no artifacts.

At least we are not running around in tight shorts

But come on guys you cannot compare "Soccer" and "Football". It is so totally different. And I think a broken leg like Prothro happens more often in soccer.

I used to love to watch soccer but nowadays mostly I can't stand it for the very reason the referee misses too much. I don't blame the referee they just should change the rules and have the ability to instantly rewatch footage to make the right decisions. That's what I love about American Football, the technical aids the referee has. I especially love it when the referee takes the time to explain a decision to the audience. In Soccer it is not uncommen for the "wrong" team to win because of bad decisions of the referee.

No, I have not.

Because clearly CNN is a bastion of unbiased reporting.

Now I'm not denying that there are fanatics in this world with... interesting... takes on Christianity (or any other religion for that matter) but these fanatics have almost no real political power and no credibility with either major political party.
There is not much bias when showing the speeches these people give. And I'm talking about all three (God's Jewish, Muslim and Christian Warriors).

Like Fox News?


Did he say Fox News was any less biased? I don't recall reading that. I think his point was to take a story that's more than likely just bashing Christian's based on the actions of a few with quite a large grain of salt.

Where in my initial post did I say anything about Christians. I was talking about religious fanatics of ALL religion. I'm not trying to attack Christians.

Info Wanted: 2 Ch Dolby Audio 2004 DVD ANH Question
Time
Everybody knows LFL screwed up the music for the 2004 audio track. In some places the music in the rear channels is reversed. For the trenchrun part they said that to change the music when the x-wings roll over and dive towards the Death Star was a "deliberate creative decision". Ofcourse that turned out to be bullshit since the french track (not just the 2.0 but also the 5.1) has the correct audio.

Btw, adywan, I hope for your edit you use the french 5.1 for the trenchrun part? It's only a few seconds but it makes all the diference.

I'm glad to help anyone, but this guy comes stampeding onto this forum making a shitload of demands in his very first post and doesn't even have the decency to say "please".

Anyway, (the name in first name area is my nickname), I can help you out and give you a myspleen invite but in order to do so I need to enter your email address (maybe better not to post it on a forum but send it using PM).

WHERE are the rules?

First thread of this section, the one that says "EVERYBODY MUST READ..."

Btw, vbangle, I don't think you're a fuckwit. I actually thought your comment that earned you the label fuckwit was pretty funny, but I assumed (and I think correctly) you were making a joke and not everybody did that.

I need the links for the following: Episode 1 "'9000' saga" edit (DL DVD ready) , Episode 2 "'9000' saga" edit (AVI), Edisode 2 "Adigitalman" edit (AVI), Clone wars "Adigitalman" edit (DL DVD ready), Episode 5 "Adigitalman" edit (DL DVD ready), Episode 6 "Adigitalman" edit (DL DVD ready), "'9000' saga" episode 1 dvd cover (whatever it's called) (if it exists),and a detailed step by step instructions on how to make a dvd cover. You can PM me these if you have too. You can also pm me invitation codes. I won't download Episode 4 "Adigitalman/darth editous hybrid" edit (DL DVD ready) until Adigitalman confirms if he will use version 3 of Darth editous' edit, and if he does, Where is the first place to find these edits? Sorry if I'm being rude or am doing something wrong. One reason for the making of this topic is simple, I REALLY DON'T LIKE USENET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *calms down* Sorry, it's just too hard to manuver. I don't have any knowladge of it. Can somebody PLEASE torrent these? Another reason I made this thread is so I can check for the edit's I want without having to look in multible threads. Thanks and if I am doing something against the fourm rules, tell me.


You start making demands in your first post?
