Adware is funny
« on: January 04, 2009, 03:03:13 PM »
I'm running a scan to catch some illusive Adware on my system. However, I have to wonder if it is worth the effort. Every time it creates a popup, I just have to laugh. Isn't adware supposed to create ads based on what you enter into search bars and junk? Because I could swear that nothing I have ever entered into a search bar would prove I may be interested in Flashingblinkylights.com, which apparently sells Neon signs or something.

If this is how the Adware works, I have to wonder if I should really pay any heed.

...So before you decided to charge head-long to find malware yourself, did you do one of those epic "I'm done running away" speeches to yourself in the mirror, or did you let that stay in the movies?

Yeah, man. Miley Cirus is pretty worthless.
As a musician Disney money-making scheme, she's a joke.

And if you mean what I think you mean by 'fake video'... She's not very attractive either.


Fail.

Eh, to each his own.

However, if I were you, I would have gone for her cute blond friend.

Well, it is now. Just shattered it to pieces about five minutes ago. I got bored of it. Take that, Virtumonde.

That would be because writing viruses and adware for a Mac is like beating up a guy in a wheelchair.

I know, right? It's just not fair to assault someone with a handicap! How can they fight back?
