Ika question - spamlet (iPad) Dec 26, 12:02 20

      - I already did that in Blood Feud so the least I can do is defend him on ika. -- nm - Spawn - Three Time Blood Feud Champion Dec 26, 12:29
- What's his name and town location? We can set up either a defense or an offense depending on who he is. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 26, 12:08 4
  - See below for info. Should I warn him first or since he's being a dick just let him have it? -- nm - spamlet (iPad) Dec 26, 12:10 3
    - I just IM'ed the MWI diplomat, told him you are a soon to be Slacker and as we have a peace agreement with them, that it'd be swell if he would call - Will Hunting Dec 26, 12:14 2

        Yeah, without the Alliance tag, they have no idea who's who. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 26, 12:41 4
        
        Agreed. But pillaging a newb is dirty, regardless. -- nm - Spawn - Three Time Blood Feud Champion Dec 26, 12:43 3
        
        The guy hitting him is only about 10k as well so it's not the most absurd thing ever. - Will Hunting Dec 26, 12:46 2

STIS: Is the Doctor Who Christmas special from yesterday "part of" season 6? Or will it be a stand-alone episode? - JaxSean Dec 26, 11:00 10

Ugh, I've been fixing my parents computer since last night. I hate viruses. MSE didn't catch it and I had to reinstall Win7 and all their software - sycor Dec 26, 10:31 9
- Was it a virus or malware? I found combining MSE with Malwarebyte's Anti-Malware very effective. -- nm - GregW Dec 26, 10:37 6
  - Unsure. Whatever it was, it was spoofing a HDD failure and throwing up boxes. It hid everything on the desktop and prevented taskmanager from loading - sycor Dec 26, 10:55 5

        oh i know. But I didn't even know where to start with repairing since I'm not familiar with win7. I guess I will need to learn it sooner rather than - sycor Dec 26, 12:17
    - malwarebytes go rid of the problem, but the system was hosed so a reinstall was needed. there was probably an easier way but I dont use win7 so I'm - sycor Dec 26, 10:57
- So, best AV software? They are willing to pay whatever is needed. This is their 3rd virus in 2 yrs. -- nm - sycor Dec 26, 10:35 1
  - The best is still MSE, but even that will fail due to user error. They need to be more aware of how to dismiss - TWuG Dec 26, 11:26
