LOL. We need an AdBLOCK for it. [grin]

I actually filtered their ad servers on my router, amazing how much of the interface is taken up by ads. Then I got annoyed and sold my Xbox since Microsoft no longer cares about making exclusive, interesting games.
How did you block their ad servers? Hostnames/IP addresses?

I also hate the Metro UI on my Adbox 360.
As with the 360, it won't be long before Microsoft pushes video ads on us through Windows 8... That could be a HUGE revenue stream for MS, and might be the real reason they are forcing Metro on us.

Oh man Adbox 360 is really amusing, I am totally using that in the future, thanks

BL2 codes if you guys are watching. 2 days in a row.

What game is this and where do we use it?
BL2=Borderlands 2. And head of gearbox is giving out shift codes (for extra golden keys) like candy these past few days over twitter. They rarely last more than an hour or two though.

Best to keep an eye on the twitter if you want them.

Thanks. So where are these keys used? Steam?

Run borderlands 2. Goto EXTRAS in menu. Then goto SHIFT CODES, paste it in and it will tell you you have a new golden key...
Oh, I thought this was to get a free BL2 game. Bah.

Has Obama actually kept any of his promises? Or does that only apply to republicans? It's ok for dems to lie, or not follow through on things, just not republicans? Is that how it goes in liberal magical fantasy world?
Has any Presidents kept their promises?

Sadly most don't. Can't disagree there. Obviously I'm bias being a fiscal conservative, so that automatically makes me not able to vote for democrats, not that I generally like the republican choice either. Like I've said, I'm far far far from a Mittens fan. It's like voting for the lesser of two evils.
Ah, for me. I just don't bother.

Many medical devices 20 years ago were strictly firmware driven with no internet and going back to that would solve a lot of these malware problems.
So were home computers
Yeah like my Texas Instrument (TI) 99/4A and Apple //c. They did have dial-up modems either for me. I get one for my IBM PS/2 Model 30 286 10 Mhz!

I see regular sales of Kaspersky that's free after MIR. I'll stick with MSE though. I've managed to stay virus free for as long as I've been using computers, mainly using common sense...
You don't even need MSE or anything.

No, only ashamed you can't get your employer to provide one to you free of charge, like I do!
But I don't need one for work. I don't even use the landline one! I do use computers and softwares a lot though.
