How is this even possible? Some people make me :facepalm: so hard, it's unbelievable. This is why you should always download from trusted sources, using a secure browser (something which ISN'T Internet Explorer), and not run strange looking exe files which have funny file sizes.

I bet he/she uses Limewire as well.

    The best I got was 3 and it was back in 2005-6. A free decent AV should protect you well.

    I remember looking for an excuse to format my laptop, so I Googled for keygens just to see how many were actually legitimate. Turns out none were, and I picked up some kind of self-replicating virus which totally fucked my computer up. Then I formatted :D

    It was probably some spyware. People like to exaggerate on FB. I remember when I worked in a PC repair shop and between perving on girls' private photos, we scanned a PC that had over 350 pieces of spyware/malware. That's a record in my books.

    Limewire's dead.

    Retard's probably still using the "safe" version. Frostwire. :facepalm:

    I love when they say that.

    Probably spyware, yeah. Not that the person who posted it would actually know the difference, it's the same sort of person who posts statuses saying that friends "hacked" Facebook and posted some kind of dumb status :facepalm:

    That's what I was talking about :thumbsup: I wish I still had the screenshot of my Antivirus going ballistic :(

    I later installed a copy of Windows XP which served me well for a year or two until I got this desktop.

    My parents' comp had around 3000 tracking cookies on it. Was pretty lulzy.

    They're not actually a threat, in case you didn't know. Depending on how you've configured your browser and how often you use the internet/run a scan, the number of tracking cookies can greatly vary.

    I set my browser to clear cookies when I close it, and never to set third party cookies. Seems to do the trick of stopping any tracking cookies from coming through.

    I have no security on my laptop and have zero viruses, spyware, malware.

    Because I know how to browse the internets. :)

    I can't be assed with my firewall popping up everytime I want to do something.

    Oh I know. It was just lulzy to see 3000. Made me say "what the fuck" before laughing. I configured their comp to be more secure with win 7. This was back in their xp days.

    How do you know this is true if you don't have AV software to scan and tell you that you are completely clean? :o

    This is what I say to anyone who tells me they get a virus: "I look at 10 times more porn than you do, but you're the one who's getting the viruses :facepalm:"
