Yes, of course. You can quit WoW and any games if you dare. I was used to be a WOW player in Taiwanese realm for three or four years, and I have two lv80 characters and tons of under-lv80 ones. As computer gaming bought a negetive impact to my interpersonal relationship and my studies, I decided to withdraw from WOW just one month ago. If you found you have lost something in your life, you may stop playing games (computer, gaming console) for weeks or months.

I am virtually neither a AMD fan or a Intel fan and I would consider the cost/performance ratio of each desired hardware product before I buy them, including CPU. For example, I found an AMD Althon 3600+ suit my need, so I switched my platform to AMD one. One or two years later, I found the C/P ratio of an second-hand Intel E6750 is good enough, so I switched back my platform to Intel.

I use multiple browsers. But I would use Firefox as the primary one. My other choices are Internet Explorer 8 and then Google Chrome.

I have found a tutorial about installing steam and counter strike under linux wine. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ You may have a look on it.

Nice to meet u, mua000 and I'm happy to hear you are experienced in virus removal. I am also interested in computing, especially technical support and programming.

Ya, it is true. I ever heard one of my schoolmate had got his adsense account suspended when his income nearly reached $100 for the similar reason.

cadams, have you tried the solution described in https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/916251?

When I wanted to signup x10 to test his service, x10 said: Sorry, x10Hosting is not currently accepting signups from your country (HK) as a result of high levels of abusive requests.Please try back later.Oops... it is unbelievable.

Some Chinese computer users wrote a similar patch called TCP-Z, which its Virtual Drive function can do the same thing of the Event ID 4226 patch without modifying tcpip.sys, and can be activated automatically since boot into windows.

A Hong Kong IT magazine called PC Market has done a performance test for IE8, Firefox 3.52, Chrome 2.0.172.43 and Opera 10. In browser initalization test, Chrome is the fastest, then IE8 follows. However, the results are very comparable.

Mine is same as you, Free Download Manager. I have accustomed to it. But I like using uTorrent to download bittorrent stuff, because it is "small, simple but powerful" and can be used as a green software.

Yes, I think Google will become the new Microsoft. This new giant has involved in various aspects in I.T., eaten many many companies, and even wanted to have her own OS......just let me think Google is very ambitious, to be a new MS.

Sweat. Many well-known packages like apache, mysql are really mature right now, the details of their configuration are somehow fixed. Therefore configuration files are appliable to (OS) upgraded system without significant changes.

A quick method to destory (all lives on) earth is to launch all nuclear missles, hydrogen bombs, neutron bombs to most parts of the world , or to attract an aerolite to let it crush on earth....I pray any of those ideas would never be executed.

It depends on my using Operating System. In Windows, I use Firefox as my primary browser, and Internet Explorer as backup, as Firefox is my old and reliable friend. In Linux, I still use Firefox first, then Konqueror or the one integrated in Gnome.
