I'm not even sure what mine is, but all signs point to motherboard so I was hoping to see it. My usb ports seem to only be working on a rotating basis. My mouse stops working every so often and I have to swap it to a different usb though sometimes it will start working again if I pull it out and put it back. I already changed it to the never sleep setting and tried four different working mice. Most internet searching says motherboard which makes me sad because I just had to replace the hard drive though I did put in a SSD and I think my external is on its last legs too.
In my case, sleep mode would either wake up instantly if I had everything set to wake it up, or never wake up at all if I disabled even one single "wake-up" setting. My computer also wasn't able to shut down. Without fail, 3 seconds after shutting down it would immediately power back up again. Finally, it also had random power cuts as well.
So I put in a brand new power supply since the random restarts was the biggest issue, and it still happened. Put in a new motherboard and poof, everything is working again.
TL;DR Even though everyone has been saying for years that Asrock has gotten better, everything I've ever used from them is still ****** .
I've never been on tumblr in my life, not will I ever go there.
You can keep pretending you were trying to do a good deed, but no one uses that ******** 'here let me google it for you' completely with 'now was that so hard' as a joke. They use it to be a smart ass.
Ouch, that hurt really... My heart is broken. I guess I'll be crying myself to sleep right after I get done laughing at what a sad little man you are, and having sex with my real life husband. Tell your wifu and your right hand, I said I'm sorry.

It's pointing out that nothing constructed in real life will be a 100% perfect square. It wouldn't be a perfect pentagon either, but there will always be a little bit of rounding on the corners if were being picky. Even if you had a robot draw one, the way that ink/pencil lead leaves marks on a page makes slightly curved lines. Just print one out sometime and look at it under a powerful magnifying glass, you'll see what I'm talking about.
Is Norton really as bad as everyone makes it out to be? I've used it for the past 2 years with no problems I think.
Why does it get such a bad rep? Are they not good at detection?
Just wanna know.
Reasons why Norton sucks:
1. False positives, norton often blocks things that arent virusses.
2. I have seen numerous times (I work at a help at home service for computers) that Norton blocks all the traffic on port 80 and 443. Those two ports are really important, all http and https traffic uses those. If they're blocked, you cannot use the internet.
3. It is way too expensive, and the detection rates are just avarage. Avira free has better detection rates.
4. It doesn't include any anti-malware, which in my opinion, any paid virusscanner should include.
5. This has gotten better in the last few years, but Norton is still not a virusscanner I would even consider running on anything that has less than an i3 CPU. It consumes resources like crazy in comparison to other AV's.
why should we? its over priced and others work the same. plus some powerful viruses wont even get detected by the paid ones. only sure clean is a system restore.
In my experience (5 years ICT consultant) the best for detection rate is Kaspersky (paid for) . The best mix between detection and speed is ESET (paid for).
How do you think companies fund the researchers and pay for the security experts? Paid for antivirus will always trump free antivirus.
The only 100% sure way to avoid malware, viruses, trojans etc is not to be on the internet and have a total stand alone PC. I'd rather have the internet, a good antivirus and common sense.
.
i've always assumed that even the best anti-virus protection software will not fully remove a nasty virus or trojan without reformatting the harddrive, once the malware gets in.
at least not to the point of making it like it never even happened.
i see there's some youtube vids of some antivirus doing some clean up but i'm still skeptical about them. IDK.
.
There will always be some malware/virus/whatever that will be undetected, using zero day exploits. But the better the software, the higher chance of it being caught.
>Discourages BitDefender
>Encourages MSE and only one other AV that I've never heard of and you have to pay for
>No mention of SAS in sight
>Put AVs on a known-infected computer because there's no way in the universe that a virus can spread to the drive
Some of his tips are good but overall I agree with you.
I agree, this infographic is spreading misinformation... I have Avast and MBAM because MBAM isn't an anti-virus, it's anti-malware. Avast is an anti-virus.
The very first picture is complete ******** , both bitdefender and kaspersky are ranked nearly number 1/2 every month on
You need to login to view this link
which ranks the best AV's out there. Secondly malwarebytes isn't even an antivirus program its an anti malware program and they're very different
It was pretty good a few years back but got really bloated and I personally didn't like that most of the time it didn't let me tell it that a specific file was in fact not a virus and it made the decisions for me
I would not recommend. I use Malwarebytes. I recommend it to everyone. I've installed it on computers that were "protected" by pretty much every anti-virus on the "what not to use list" and every time but 1 it's found malware they missed. The free version does nearly everything the premium version does. The only thing is you've got to do it manually. The premium version lets you set up automatic updates and scans.
Malwarebytes, though it's a premium antivirus, is singularly the greatest antivirus software I have ever used. It's quite, it's not computer-intensive, it almost never makes false-positives, and it can scan very quickly.
I thought Avast was really good? I've got both Avast and Malware Antibytes and Avast tends to detect malware that Malware Antibytes can't find sometimes.
Windows Defender is supposed to be a built-in Microsoft Security Essentials for Windows 8 users, however personally i've found Defender to be quite crap, over an entire year i don't think i've had a single case of it picking up anything, whereas Malwarebytes works perfectly and will actually get rid of anything resembling a virus, it has updates almost daily as well which is pretty decent
It's always safe to have a couple if you're worried, but for me Malwarebytes is good by itself, you get a free 30 day trial where it'll actively scan for you, but you'll need to pay premium after that to keep it doing that for you, but quite honestly nothing stopping you just scanning manually, literally only a couple of clicks and let it do it's job, happy virus killing
Nothing. The infographics is very old. Nowadays it is highly discouraged to use Microsoft Essentials as its detection rate is very poor. Many of the "What not to use" AVs have improved over time - Kaspersky, Bitdefender (haven't tested others) and have superb detection rate.
At any rate you can disable the active/real-time protection and only use the AV to manually scan shady files you've downloaded and thus save resources.
All of this bar 2 things WRONG.
Avast is the second best Antivirus in the world. Low usage and very accurate in it's readings. ESET is absolute ******** and is worse than Panda an Notron.
Those flow charts aren't what you do, you turn the ****** on and listen for beeps, if none are heard play with RAM and go from there Or you know you could use multiple methods of actually scientifically working **** out VIA osciloscope, multimeter etc. The video file one is incorrect because it has more than that (a lot more) but it has been heavily simplified.
>File Server
>Linux
Top kek. Just use a ******* dedicated server router, or cloud storage device whatever they call it now
"CLI Commands" Is it meant to invoke CSI? Because the command line interface has **** all to do with that and the commands shown aren't even that impressive.
"Parts of windows" >Uses ************* '97 good job dummy
Thus concludes my report on "Why you're a ******* idiot"
The square/pentagon one is ******** . At least one side is rounded off? The word you're looking for is corner.
Secondly, if one corner can be rounded off, then all corners could be rounded off. Making it not a pentagon, but an octagon (going by this ****** logic).
And if you really want to be anal about it, squares and other polygons don't actually exist in our 3D world, cause they're 2D.
