First of all, there's no need to come off like a pompous ass. My wording was just weird, I didn't contradict myself. I can see how my wording would have given that impression, but what you just explained is what I meant. Since the security suite uses NOD32, that it is NOD32, but with other...

lol @ most of that post... the seething sarcasm :D ... ...and have to agree, between all the games released this year (that I played, anyway) Crysis definitely is GOTY, hands-down. Not the greatest of all-time, and could have been better in a few ways with the aliens and it becoming more...

Aside from an obviously major boost in graphics, it seems (from what I've read so far) that they've revamped and added to a good amount to the gameplay mechanics. How the authorities respond, the actions you can take in dealing with certain situations, a more advanced melee combat mechanic and...

Oh, thanks for the links :) ...hadn't found them, even when I searched for WB in the forums. Yeah, I've gotten rather addicted to it over the years, but haven't used it in a while, except for recently when I had to uninstall it to test for some other issues. Think I'll reinstall it though...

Frontlines: Fuel of War (PC) GTA IV (X360) Far Cry 2 (PC) Mercenaries 2: World In Flames (PC - maybe the X360) Burnout: Paradise (X360) Left4Dead (PC - maybe) Mafia 2 (PC) Dead Space (PC - looks sick; supposedly due out in late '08) Fracture (X360 - if it turns out well; seems...

ESET Security Suite, which is NOD32. Definitely the best a/v program I've ever used. Just moved from strictly NOD32 to the full suite, and it's excellent. I'm assuming you mean on two different systems? Cant use both at once individually on the same system, since the Security Suite is NOD32...

Just curious if anyone here uses WindowBlinds at all, and if you've ever noticed any problems/conflicts with other progs, including games. Since most of us here are in front of our computers so much of the time, I know I personally get tired of looking at the same old XP GUI, so I've used it...

Update: willing to drop to $50 if necessary for anyone interested. I have to get rid of this thing, because it's just sitting here new in it's box, and I need the $ to replace this with another mouse I know works best for me and is far more comfortable (especially due to the nerve damage in my...

I have a handful of .mov vids (Quicktime) that I need to convert into high-quality mpegs (or WMV), but currently don't have any conversion software. Can someone recommend a decent program that can convert them without losing any quality? Something that's not bloatware, spyware-free (obviously)...

Interesting. Maybe something with a recent update is causing us the same problem? Definitely not a hardware problem on my end either, and I've not been able to resolve it. Nothing else is slow (booting, shutdown window, progs etc.) but my shutdown time is insane. :confused: If you're going to...

Interesting... how would my profile become corrupted? When you say rename Username, you mean the folder that has other system folders in it? I'm assuming that's what you mean, since there's no file called "Username" in "Documents and Settings"...? Just a folder with my Username, Default User...

All basic stuff I take care of on a regular basis, but thanks for the suggestion. No slow down on boot (extremely fast), just shutdown, so it's something "hanging" when shutting down.

Ok, I understand what you're saying. Just tried to uninstall the new Eset Security Suite, rebooted a few times, but I guess that's actually not my problem. Still having slow log off times. Damn. This only started after the installation of Windowblinds (which I consequently uninstalled) and the...

Well, if it means anything (not that I can do anything about it): http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=192990. So, my common sense must be right-on, as this didn't start until the day or a day after I installed the new full Eset Security Suite. As stated in my above post, since...

Thanks for the link and the info, but I'm unsure as whether or not to install this if it can potentially cause a problem. It also hasn't been updated since '05. Are you suggesting to just install it once, log off, check the system log to find the culprit then just uninstall the program? Is...

I just recently started experiencing a long delay in shutting down my system, which is usually extremely fast. It only began after I installed Eset's new Security Suite. I had also just reinstalled Windowblinds a few days before (which I've used on-and-off for years) but that wasn't causing...

Just checked on IGN's updated preview for the PS3 (though it's same content as on PC) and it seems fantastic. Every time they get their hands on an updated version, they seem to have nothing but high praise for the gameplay and game mechanics. If this turns out how it as good as it seems, I...

Bought it a few weeks ago, used it for about a half-hour, and realized it's totally uncomfortable for me. Has been sitting in it's box ever since, so it's still brand new. $55 shipped ($50/mouse, $5/shipping) in original box, everything included. Cost me almost $75 w/shipping, so I think this...

Thanks for the excellent info! I'm definitely psyched about this the more I hear, and this just raised things a huge notch for me. Cant wait!

No kidding. It's too bad that even this embarrassing and ironic situation still wont teach them any lessons. I mean that from the perspective of actually helping others, and not just going after "big cases", or worse yet, those who should be left alone. I've had to deal with the RIAA in the...

Well, looks like we have some feedback. Nice. How is the gameplay in general? Fast-paced? How are the physics and vehicles etc.? What about the semi-destructible environments I've read about? I've read things such as, you can blow a hole through a wall, and make your own way through the maps...

Exactly. Between Adblock Plus and NoScript, it really secures things well and allows for so much more security customization, and solid security features at that.

Just curious if anyone who has played/been playing the beta has any updated impressions on the game. I've been looking forward to it since it's announcement, as it seems like it could potentially be an even "better Battlefield". If they can create the fast-paced gameplay of BF, maybe adding...

Heh, 'Gestapo tactics'... great way to put it, and quite accurate these days. Yeah, it's just getting disgusting, all the heavy-handing censorship garbage. Any form of even constructive criticism, or even stating your own personal opinions, either gets you bashed, berated and/or banned all over...

Thanks for the responses. I actually went ahead and just bought the full Security Suite, and thus far, it seems pretty damn great. Heh, yeah that would definitely be overkill in my situation, as there's no one "stupid" using my system(s). I don't bother with Spybot anymore, as it's sorely...

Uh, no... with ten years of designing under my belt, I'd have to disagree totally. No idea where that statement is coming from, but it's not accurate. I wish that were the case, considering all I use anymore is FF, but unfortunately, that's not the case. Either way, I can get things done...

You need to chill-out there a bit, buddy. My "reading skills" are not the issue here. My blazing through the forums right now in the midst of working would be the issue. Your "e-superiority" notwithstanding, pointlessly insulting other adults on the forums here is a testament to your low level...

...

lol, again. QFT. How much more photo-realistic can things get? Except for VR, of course ;)

lol, no kidding. Looks seriously incredible! Already made me feel extremely impatient for it's release and the first FPS that will use it! :D

That's what's odd, is that I'm having this happen to me as well, but it never happened until now with the .11 update. So if it's been in the FAQ, I've never had problems until now. And I wouldn't really want to lose at least the Adblock Plus add-on for FF, as it's been a great thing since...

I don't get it... In going along with an above post, which I truly agree with, just because they found less vulnerabilities doesn't mean it's "safer", it could indeed just mean they haven't found them all. Anyone with half a brain would look at it from that perspective, and this guy just...

I use NOD32 AV as it's the best out there, but how is their anti-spyware, which comes with the new Security Suite that was recently released? Has it been thoroughly tested, and does it offer real-time protection? Also, is it good enough to be used as "stand-alone" anti-spyware protection...

I'm having the same problem, but it started with 2.0.0.11 that I just updated to yesterday. I was fine with 2.0.0.10, but now am having high CPU usage (on a dual-core, no less) and sometimes Mem Usage. With only three tabs open, all [H] forum pages, I'm up to 30% CPU usage. I'm usually at...

Has anyone heard of it? It came out in early '07, but I only ran across it now. Says it's "high fidelity" and seems like a very light-weight prog. Anyone have any feedback regarding it? I have VLC, but don't like certain things about it, and it's a little buggy, so I'm wondering about Xion...

Well, that certainly points in the direction of it being the CPU sensor ;) I just know some do have their 3.6's run hot, but considering the info I gave in my first post, it would seem to be a sensor problem. Can anyone confirm it for certain though? Definitely an issue I (and...

I've been told directly (and found in two places) that the "bad axe" D975XBX boards' CPU sensors read between 15-25C higher because the sensors on this line of boards are off (CPU only). Can anyone confirm this? I'm running a P4 3.6 on the D975XBX (which I just obtained two days ago) and...

Ok, no deal... still need some help. I re-mounted the Zalman with AS5, neat and tight, and as soon as I booted-up (system having been off long enough to cool down for me to do the work, which is plenty) I checked my temps immediately and the CPU is reading as 60C instantly. Something has...

Hmmm... well, it's the same exact CPU I just had in my other system/mobo, plus... it looks pretty flat to me ;) Every time I've put AS5 on it, it's always been perfectly flat across the surface... unless the Zalman base warped a little, which I've heard can happen from heat. But, you never...

I'm not finding any other additional info on this board reading wrong or causing more heat, other than the little I've heard word-of-mouth. So, just to double-check, any more info/ideas would be helpful. Cheers.
