I've got dialup so I can't even bother with **** on here.. I use Norton AntiVirus and Adaware... Adaware is a MUST for any computer so make sure you run that, R1.
You're in the same boat as my brother and what I do is a nice format and I throw on XP Pro because I think it's one of the most stable OSs out there right now.. So if you can get that done, grab adaware, throw up some firewallness, and have a decent virus scanner, you can peep all the **** you want.. Also, I'd stay away from **** webpages and watch what you click.
If **** is still an issue, link has a program called bittorrent which you may be familiar with..
Here's a couple of sites that support bittorrent that have a fu<kload of sh|t (movies, tv shows, games, apps, etc). Some have **** some don't.. If you want me to explain anything let me know!
Suprnova.org
Torrent Links <-- Alot of links to torrent sites

I don't know who has caught wind of the torrents yet but yea.. It's what I use to download mainly mp3 albums.. I get movies and **** at my brothers place though! Anyway, I hope this stuff helps anyone out at all because it was a bit to type and throw those damn links in. Peas

Macfay, and CoupeStylz and 03CivicSi, the dyno day is cancelled. Booo!!! Too many losers backed out. I feel bad for Rich who went through all this trouble and then people decide one or 2 weeks before the date that they can't go. Rich, if you decide to try another dyno day, take money in advance. This blows. I was really looking forward to this.

yeah.. BT is great.. i use it to get tons of games and movies.. err.. game and movie BACKUPs

R1, i had a similar virus.. and i basically did what joski said above.. format/installed XP pro

tho, i didnt bother with the firewall.. i can reinstall windows and be up and running in a day with everything i had before.. so its no big deal to me.. i do it a couple times a year at least

Nah buddy, it's out in Strathroy but I don't live in town.. Dialup is a hard thing to deal with! Ah well.. I actually used to be big into warez like back in the day. But when highspeed came out I was less and less into it.

Hey Denny, you ever notice that your old Xenon front flares out a lot more than everyone else's Xenon fronts? Everyone's been telling me how nice and wide the front looks. I've noticed too that it flares out more than the Xenon i had or any other Xenon that i've ever seen. I like it!!!!

huh? It does? I noticed mine flared out but I thought everyone else's was like that. I never really stared at anyone elses though....

Anyways, did you lower your car yet Bruno?
Also... let me know when you've got some free time because I wanna paint my calipers/drums. I was at crappy tire the other night picking up caliper paint when the store caught fire and we got kicked out. It was pretty funny.
