I'm looking for a good allround low-maintenance anti-virus etc. protection for my machine (Dell Dimension 3100). I've thought about buying Norton 360, would appreciate your input on this.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could give me a good tip on what kind of software I should get to secure my computer against viruses and the like. I mean trojan horses, hackers, spammail and what have you - I guess a normal virus scanner won't do all that. I would pwerfer if it could be dome without installing a gazillion separate programs, but really I just need to know what I can do.

... i need to make my browser TELL me if I am going to click on an onion-link... or maybe i could just start reading my URLS

Yeah, which is why i am certain that the video - cool as it may be - isn't real. (Plus, I would be thrilled if I could just lay my hands on the kind of camera you would need for this type of thing ...)

I can't find the obvious answer anywhere: Pets taste better. Seriously, though, the difference between a pet and a slave would first have to rely on the difference between an animal and a human. I am certain that humans have a desire for freedom, and that they understand their enslavement - I kinda doubt there will be a revolution of goldfish soon ... on a somewhat related note: EXCERPTS FROM A DOG'S DIARY Day number 180 8:00 am - OH BOY!

' EXCERPTS FROM A CAT'S DIARY DAY 752 - My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while I am forced to eat dry cereal. The only thing that keeps me going is the hope of escape, and the mild satisfaction I get from ruining the occasional piece of furniture. Tomorrow I may eat another houseplant. DAY 761 - Today my attempt to kill my captors by weaving around their feet while they were walking almost succeeded; must try this at the top of the stairs. In an attempt to disgust and repulse these vile oppressors, I once again induced myself to vomit on their favorite chair...must try this on their bed. DAY 765 - Decapitated a mouse and brought them the headless body, in attempt to make them aware of what I am capable of, and to try to strike fear into their hearts. They only cooed and condescended about what good little cat I was...Hmmm. Not working according to plan. DAY 768 - I am finally aware of how sadistic they are. For no good reason I was chosen for the water torture. This time however it included a burning foamy chemical called "shampoo." What sick minds could invent such a liquid. My only consolation is the piece of thumb still stuck between my teeth. DAY 771 - There was some sort of gathering of their accomplices. I was placed in solitary throughout the event. However, I could hear the noise and smell the foul odor of the glass tubes they call "beer". More importantly I overheard that my confinement was due to MY power of "allergies." Must learn what this is and how to use it to my advantage. DAY 774 - I am convinced the other captives are flunkies and maybe snitches. The dog is routinely released and seems more than happy to return. He is obviously a half-wit. The bird on the other hand has got to be an informant, and speaks with them regularly. I am certain he reports my every move. Due to his current placement in the metal room his safety is assured. But I can wait, it is only a matter of time...

And yet, here you are ... Did you give her any reason to think badly about you, or to not want you as a friend? Did she ever make any indicatetion that she might be thinking badly about you, or that she was considering to end your friendship? The sad part is that I do believe you when you say you have never felt better. Of course, that doesn't mean that your strategy is any good, let alone optimal. It's just better than the worst you could be doing. I fail to see the logic behind it all, though: If you really didn't care about these things anymore, then why take the trouble to not interact with other people? (Maybe it's just me, but it would take work to not talk with other people for me.)
