u know how the apparent temporary absence of viruses on ur computer lulls you into this false sense of security that your computer is alright and defending itself v well? haha well its a farce. i think most of my frens wld know i was recently infected with a worm that made me keep sending parishilton again! with a link to all my msn contacts on line. yeah well then ran a few virus scans and system scans on my computer and boom! the computer is riddled with viruses and disease. now have to install a hell lot of security patches on your computer and do lots more stuff. hais.

oh and lawrence recommended mozilla firefox instead of internet explorer... tried it, and i actually like it alot! haha it has nice browser settings, you can even download themes (kinda works in the same principle as skins), and well the best part is that cos IE is more widely used, most of the horrible programs (trojans, spywares, etcetc) are written to target it! so its actually safer! haha. okay. now i have to brief my entire family on the switch to firefox :)

i still hate bitching hahaha... saus' blog has this link to a very interesting article on it. bitching for solidarity? haha i dunno. i just zonk out whenever it occurs anywhere near my vicinity.
