McAfee vs. NortonNorton Or Mcafee?McCafee! Other than real-time scan slowing your PC searches as with any product, it has worked very well me for many years. Auto updates are great except when a new engine will restart your machine onece in a while. Norton does do quick scans faster but is too convoluted.Too bad Comcast decided on the other guys. Norton doesn't seem to be as consumer friendly and a bit too restrictive when web browsing in it's default mode... -reply by Pixtacy

Replying to canalilhaI feel their reasons to the consumer are a bit misleading but Comcast just switched from a free-for-customers McCafee to Norton. McCafee has worked very well for my Intel Q6600 Vista Ultimate system for the past 3 years and has coexisted with my ErrorFix and worked well with IE7 & 8 and FireFox. I used both products for many years previous as at one time McAfee had the better Virus-Scan and Norton the better Firewall but a couple of "engines'' later neither were compatible with each other. The Norton product had too many adjustments and McCafee seemed to go out of the box.I've been a bit skeptical of Norton because I had a couple problems with it. One at my work when Norton's own SMS.Ex- file got infected/hijacked converted and transfered to my USB Thumb Drive. This trojan was a clock changer usually not a problem unless your dependent on correct time services or even night time updates. Anyway taking a known risk, but knowing how to fix it, I decided to plug the known bad USB drive in at home and McCafee caught the trojan right away.My brother-in-law had his Google and Yahoo home pages hijacked and redirected and though he had active Norton 360 it didn't catch or fix it even in safe mode.Therefore, I've been partial to McCafee.Still skeptical of Norton, it was free from Comcast so I unloaded McCafee and downloaded Norton to two of my portable machines that are networked at home. One with XP-Home and the other newer with 7-Home. For two weeks it has been just short of a nightmare on the XP machine better on the new 7 OS. Slow and locking up sometimes not being able to even bring up Task Manager to look or get out of it without a restart.Norton is very robust and does do quick-scans faster than McCafee, but also slows down the PC more than McCafee; especially when you have the look ahead or real-time monitoring enabled (Note: most any real-time scan will slow access features down for files and/or Internet/http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ to use Norton with the World Wide Web or the Internet has been challenging to make it work even by what I consider to be my more advanced abilities. Note that I said make it work not Disable it which for some reason has required a PC reset whenever I try to change it. I don't think the average PC user switching from McCafee is going to be as happy if they have to reconfigure Norton's many features.At this point I'm going to pay for McCafee's Security Center if necessary in my desktop at least until I can get a stable version of Norton working in the other PC's. 3/4/2010-reply by Swedishpassions

United WorldThe Next World Super Power?U. S. Of A is definately current superpower right now with its undoubted expense into military equipment. Tho people saying China, India, Russia, or EU might be the next superpower when US falls... China would undoubtly a strong candidate for that. China is one of the oldest countries with richest history and the best environments of the world... They were the very first ones to explore the world (yep not christopher coloumbus, and the emperor was not happy about what he found from other countries, due to the technical advance of the current empire, he ordered to destroy all ships for further exploration). Speak from a perspective of a chinese person (me) I would be extremely proud if China would succeed in leading the world but in the same time have some serious concern about this issue... First of all EU and other american/british colonized countries will feel threaten, everyone will be afraid their country will turn socialist, and possible threats to taiwan territory (yes I believe they are only a territory because they are a part of china). And possibly seek revenge to the japanese people. In truth, I would rather have U.S. Be the world no.1 power, speaking from a chinese person perspective... Since there are huge corruption problems in China, not because they are a bad country, but it has being pass down since the dynasty era... Its hard to change old habits when you're thounsands of year old. As someone mentioned japan being the no.1 power, that's never going to happen, its true they are technologically advanced, but with their current problems with china they will not be able to raise to the top of they don't be truthful to their history and admit their fault for massacring millions of chinese people. India, is also a great country with a lot of hard working people, but the country itself as people have mentioned is too diversed... I would agree EU being a good choice, but I stand by my opinion as U.S. Being the best current candidate. -reply by Red Army !

Clone A Sim Card. This is how to clone a sim card.
iGuest replied to gaggu007's topic in General Discussion
Reply to post article.Clone A Sim Card.In the world we have scammers and noble, I am a noble man and refused to act like a crook. In order to embedd yourself among crook u need to understand their mind set, speak their language and then eat in the same restaurant their go. Our duty isn't to defraud our government but to protect our national interest in form of acquisition. Meanwhile, while you collect non collectable one has to be self conscious about risk and liability. Second by doing so one conducts a check and balances of his own backyard, set the example for predecessor to follow. If u and I join together to fight fraud America will be a safe place to live.

How To Create Java Button Or Frame to be customized
iGuest replied to negativezero's topic in Programming
Buttons too large, text replaced by ellipsis...How To Create Java Button Or FrameHi, I've tried creating buttons with e.G. A single character in them, but find that I have to make them ridiculously large to show even such a short string. The height and width needs to be about 4 times the text dimensions, otherwise I just get "...". Is this internal padding something I can adjust or is this part of the "look and feel"? Neil -
Reservation Rewards - A Scam!Reservation Rewards - A Scam!I got scammed too for $12 a month, I called the number and they refunded the money. It makes me mad I had to waste a bunch of time figuring out what this charge was and the calling to get it refunded and now I'm calling to get new debit cards. I can not imagine how much money they make off this, from people that don't watch their card charges closely. And why are'nt there agencies that are cracking down on these kinds of scams-reply by Sean Dorn

Any Horrible Real Life Incidents Friends If please share it.
iGuest replied to contactskn's topic in General Discussion
ghostsAny Horrible Real Life Incidents Friends yes I do believe there are ghosts, for want of a better name, the only experience ive had of an "entity" was when I was a young lad, I was with friends walking along a path near where I live, near to an old derilict farm house. There was no buildings or other people near me, my friends were in front of me some 20 or so feet away. It was a still sunny day, no wind. I didnt see anything but I got a slap on the back of my head, as if some one had hit me with a hand. I turned around immediatly but no one was there. I also believe that when we die our "life force" leaves our body and is an energy thats all around us, just like electricity and other invisible energys. I also believe that the life energy re enters other new born life at a later stage. I don't however believe in a God as such, so for me religion doesnt come in to it. -reply by buddy -

The world will end like a thief in the night, and when everyone is merrying, eating & drinking as the bible told us, even the Angels in heaven doesnt know the time, but God alone decides, the world could end everyday, But as I figured the signs are great wars famines, Pestilence, and natural disasters, as I had been for thousands of years, after the great flood, Mankind is weak, in a way of flesh, wealth, and power, and that makes the world perverted from its natural begginings, who is right and who is assured of heaven is only known to God in heaven, Whether you are into different sect, or creed, its your belief, as long as your religion teaches, Respect and help & love others as if you are doing it to God. And not to hurt and cruelty to the poor and the weak. So we might as well be ready everytime, follow Gods rules and love and help others, because one day it might be late for us to do good than all the bad things we have done to others, Life might go on or not, Theres a new heaven on earth right after the judgement day, If you are one of the lucky one who would inherit the new heaven, then its your lucky day with a life without end.

The Ultimate Gaming Chair My dream computer chair
iGuest replied to kurtis's topic in Science and Technology
ToiletThe Ultimate Gaming ChairI just had this exact same idea xD and then realized others had probably already thought of it. Yes of course it needs a toilet, and yes if you could design & mass produce it you would make money off gaming addicts with too much money on their hands (they're out there for sure) Ther would be a minor moral quandry (like if you were peddling crack or mcdonald's cheeseburgers) but I'm sure a lot of us could get over that if there was money to be made -reply by Mousse420 -

Re: Restoring the time When The Browser Is ClosedWhen The Browser Is ClosedReplying to (G)Sunny SrivastavaSimple answer: you can't.At least not easily.Probably the best thing you can do, is to use auto-refresh. However that should be easy to work around, so cheating might be as easy as pressing the "STOP" button in your browser, paste the URL into another browser window, and re-start from there.
