Three anti-virus programs is worse than using none; they will only create conflicts with each other.

Agree, but I think, that only one is launched and used fr instant defense (started with start of wins) in his case. Others may be just for occasional scanning against other malware than viruses. :shrug:

Well if you use one for protection & scanning and other for just scanning, because one program can miss something. I have 2 because of that for example.

Not really, the programs will conflict with each other resulting into seeing each other as 'harmful objects'.


Really, running more than one anti VIRUS (usually malware programs are fine!) is not wise, maybe even stupid. Plus the impact on your system is huge.

I used to change my backdrop very rarely, up until some point of last year. After a few months in the cuurent school, the closest classmates already knew that I like the anime stuff. I changed the laptop backdrops some times and they started to talk about how there always were catgirls. And then they also started to follow how the amount of clothes seemed to get smaller and smaller. So I started to change the backdrop monthly, searching for the best... "On the line of nudity" pictures for the laptop. I'ts funny o hear their comments. :D And the new picture always brightens up the day when I start the laptop at school. On christmas I started to follow the monthly change routine on this computer too. But on this one the pictures are more the cuter ones.

..Yeah.

Last month I uninstalled Vista Inspirat 2, as it keeps slowing my computer down.

New desktop.
