With Cnet you don't get a direct download anymore, you have to download a setup to get your download, but this setup for Imgburn sent me the software, but it also sent me the malware with it.

cnet (Download.com) has always been a trusted site, but this morning their download hit me with a nasty hijack called browsemngr.exe. It hijacked all my browsers and it took me like 20 minutes to clean it all up. Watchout.

Thanks for the recommendations. Ive thought about getting a board with thunderbolt support in case I needed it, but I've read lots of complaints with people saying its not quite ready for prime time. any experiences with it?

Motherboard suggestions? in Personal Computing JoeUser Forums

Its really tough to choose a mobo for the rig I'm building. Its probably the toughest choice to make. I generally want Intel Z77, LGA1155, 32GB ram, and at least 2 x SATA 6Gb. Which motherboard would be best? Gigabyte seems solid. What would you use if you were building a rig now? I don't really need an extreme gaming rig with 4 cards.

[quote who="lulapilgrim" reply="58" id="3273851"]Why Romney lost[/quote] While much of that might be true, In looking at the results, Mitt Romney caused at least 3 million Republicans who voted for Palin and McCain to sit the election out. Old man McCain actually motivated more Mormons to vote for him than Romney could... and Romney is a Mormon. So shame of those conservatives for voting for Obama by virtue of staying home. While Romney wasn't the most charismatic guy, or

She just spouted total ignorance, and ranted about how ignorant other people appear.[/quote] I try not to get angry at Obama voters. For one thing, I have one or 2 in my family (gasp), and it plays into Obama's plans for me to become polarized and get angry. Obama would like nothing more than to put lots of daylight between us and them.

Well, in Alaska you need to be able to care for yourself because its a frontier. :) In the case of Hurricane Sandy, some people have been dealt really bad cards. Where I live on the Jersey Shore some people have been totally wiped out. The storm surges destroyed some homes and those people do need some help because they have suffered total loss. I feel pretty bad for the people who still have no power and those who have totally lost their homes and cars.

Rugged individualism was an American ideal from its founding, but somehow it turned to a bunch of whiny souls clinging to the officials elected in Government. Thats why so many people struggle so mightily in disasters like the one we are currently dealing with on the east coast. No one prepares for these things with lanterns, flashlights, batteries, gasoline, foods such as peanut butter and jelly, rice, pasta, and tons of stuff in cans and bottles. Right now even with the shortages of stuff I

I know a few Union workers. They are good people and aren't at fault for what is happening. It is their bosses. There was a time when Unions were good, but they have become a militant political wing of the Democrat party and their undue political influence is something that becomes more and more problematic with each election. If Obama finds a way to win,. it will be the Unions who carry his sorry ass over the finish line. I'm sure it will only be to face impeachment charges for Libya

[quote who="Daiwa" reply="10" id="3257007"]For my money, Romney won the election with his Al Smith dinner speech. It was lethally funny. Or hilariously lethal, however you want to view it.[/quote] I think it happened at the first debate. That event was pivotal. As Charles K said, Romney came out swinging and scored a first round KO destroying millions of dollars worth of negative advertising. So the whole Obama strategy of "kill Romney" went up in smoke.

Reply to Debate #3 in Politics JoeUser Forums

Should be interesting. Not sure how Obama's policy is viewed favorably when he bows and bends before everyone and delivers dangerously naive and provocative speeches that unravel the Mid East such as Cairo 2003. With the Muslim Bros installed in Egypt, remind me what part of "Mubarak must step down" was a good idea. The entire ME burning, Islamic militancy on the rise, deadly massacres in Syria, the blind sheiks picture on giant billboards throughout Egypt, Israel completely abandoned and

Cleveland is a pretty nice place. I liked hanging out at the flats and in the Parma district... only downside to Ohio is the fact that its a snow belt. When it comes to my prediction map I have second thoughts about Iowa. I'd likely say that Romney will take it as well. Obama supporters seem to be in total panic. Obama himself is acting like a total loser, hurling schoolyard insults and discussing topics that are totally irrelevant, like women in binders and big bird. This election should

I know its not a popular view, but I view all religions as a tool put in place by men to control people. Religion isn't setup for an average person to prevail, it benefits Clergy. I have to laugh when the Pope visits a 3rd world country in his Mercedes with gold hubcaps and peasants who drink water unfit for animals drop to their knees to kiss the ground he walks on. Islam is a particularly brutal, violent, and backward religion and unlike Christianity or Judaism it always seeks to serve
