Good luck getting your account back :)

Seeing your slightly calm responds to your account being closed, I suspect you of shady things!

Just kidding, think some people just don't care much about their account. You should be more carefull as to give away account information, and above all beware of keyloggers.

I have NO firewall or antivirus programs running on my computer, yet I've never had any virus or trojan on my pc. Downloading from proper sites and even checking things before you open it helps a lot with the security. Oh, and sharing account information compromises your account security too!

Anyways, I should get back to work again. Good luck with retrieving your account!

I can't stop giggeling - sorry. No it's not funny that you got banned but that slogan thing you got in your signature is hilarious!

Sorry that you got banned. Most likely it's just a temp ban anyways, hopefully.

Why?
Your puting your computer and entire system to danger!
Seriously.. If you do not trust any webpage, that enables you to download either a firewall or antivirus program.. You could easially buy a firewall / Antivirus program.
I've had a Antivirus program called: Norton Antivirus. You gotta buy it though, and it's not that cheap. But it's awsome and I've used it since 2003 :)

But if you're one of those lucky ones never hiting any p-site and don't get any virus, you could probably continue without any ;)

But i prefer security over - well.. not so secured computer! :)

Any kind of passive virus scanner is great - just run it weekly, or even every night, after raids or something.

The 'active' ones are the bitches - and Norton is one of them (unless you configure it otherwise). Nothing like having a virus checker scan every incoming email and every single file that's read off the harddisk while you're raiding...

Active system scanners can cripple your system for games playing, really :)

(I don't use any kind of virus/spyware removal either)

Hehe okey :)
First of all, Norton doesn't scan any e-mails, file you recive or whatnot.
But my dad helped me out configuring it. It does a "virus check" on saturdays every week, and furthermore.. I can just re-anble that (So I can start a virus check manually, if I'd like to)!

You're really puting your comps to a high risk.  :-*

I HATE NORTON ANTIVIRUS!!

It can cause sooo much trouble.

I helped some people that had stopped getting emails. It turned out norton was bugging and was blocking their emails.

And then it couldnt be uninstalled, had to be done manually. Symantic even knows that it is not possible to uninstall it and havent released a fix for it....

I have more good stories about norton antivirus from my work.

Antivirus is a good idea, but I would never choose norton antivirus.

Yeah, I used to assist with couple of issues with Norton... My sister had it on her laptop and after some time startup was about 3 minutes (while Norton is passive), all went back to normal after removing Norton, hence how "passive" it was.

Seems strange. Maybe there were some problems caused during the installation itself. I've never had any problems at all though!!  :-*
