Ugh which did I install recently...no it was definitely avast. I tried avast recently after doing some horrifyingly irresponsible clicking on the internet and ran its scan. I ended up removing it though because it introduced this weird bug that fucked up my soundcard in some way. I still have no idea what on earth was causing it but the issue started sometime shortly after I installed it and went away after I uninstalled it. So I would avoid Avast I guess.

Avast is definitely the best free antivirus (use in conjunction with scans w/ malware bytes every so often)

But then that means no internet porn.

Besides, I have got used Viagra e-mails and pop-up saying that there are millions of 22 year old women that just CAN'T WAIT to meet a mostly toothless, 50 year old redneck that lives 50 miles from anything but a post Office. I don't think I'd be happy without them anymore.

A good anti-virus would stop those.

I never said nothin' back to him. You don't want mess with no freak that's searchin' around that hard for blood.

Why are you bothering with pressing an excess key? Ctrl doesn't do anything there.

I just got McAfee cause I didnt want to end up with issues of dueling antivirus

The hilarious part was when i went to the mcafee website it would only show a single product for 79.99. But I knew there was a cheaper one that didnt have a bunch of crap I didnt need. I even got my wife to send me a direct link to said product, but McAfee kept redirecting me to the bloated product. After about 15 min she found a link that wouldnt redirect.

Now I feel bad giving money to such a shit company

Hold off on buying it you mean?

What drivers are you concerned about?

Eh. A lot of companies have terrible websites which is pretty shocking since we are kind of in the golden age of web development.

Like take LinkedIn for example. They should be at a high standard due to being a software company who offers a service through a website.

Their website design is pretty garbage considering that though.

If they're in a network, you just turn on file sharing and drag and drop. If not, then use a crossover cable to connect them together directly.

Edit: Forgot about flash drives. If you have one that's at least 16GB then that is the easiest way.
