    need help with antivirus and firewall

    thanks, i already did, and talked to a live rep. apparently there's nothing wrong with the router's firewall feature. A few hackers got through in the past, so I guess not all hardware firewalls are built equal? i have zone labs firewall as added protection now. btw, moxio, how did you get two...

    need help with antivirus and firewall

    moxio, i'm really paranoid too. I'm using avg antivirus, zone alrm firewall, a proxy, and i have kaspersky av set up for a weekly check. i haven't been able to configure my router though. i know i'm supposed to turn off pings or something, but i can't find the option in the router page. Anyone...

    need help with antivirus and firewall

    silly me, i found out my router supports hardware firewall, but it's not set-up. I tried going to the router http page, but I found nothing to turn firewall on or disable UPnP. If anyone jas a linksys, can you tell me how to configure it as a hardware firewall?

    need help with antivirus and firewall

    thanks. i have a wired linksys BEFSR41 Version 2, and I know it doesn't have firewall since PC-cillin blocks a hacking attempt almost once a week. I'll get the Sygate and just manually turn off my internet connection when I want to play Doom 3 I guess. I've heard good things about the Tiny...

    need help with antivirus and firewall

    what av/firewall programs do you guys recommend? I've used PC-cillin for a while but it doesn't detect all viruses. Norton Internet Security works great, but I get significantly slower FPS in games. I'm thinking of getting the Sygate Firewall and Kaspersky AV. Are those good choices?

    How do I tell what video card I have?

    you should be able to run everything at very high settings (water at ultra high) at 1024 x 768. To have everything maxed out, 6x FSAA, AF, at 1600x1200, you'll need a 6800 ultra. btw, do you have integrated audio? Try running the audio test in 3DMark03 and see if there are any significant FPS...

    Which of these processors are better?

    they are, if it's your thing, due to the higher FSB. but athlon 64's always beat its intel counterpart in game tests. For example, an Athlon 64 3000+ is as fast as a 3.4 P4 with games, despite being much cheaper. I'd choose an Athlon 64, and just do the video converting whenever you go to sleep.

    Pop Up Stopper

    if you want to buy, i heard stopzilla is a very good one. i use the earthlink pop-up blocker (i have an earthlink account, but it might be freeware). Others are google toolbar pop-up blocker, yahoo toolbar pop-up blocker, the nvidia forceware pop-up blocker feature. Those are spyware safe.

    Looking for WaveBirds, and a copy of Devil May Cry.

    How about Mario for DMC? Mine is non-GH and in very good, but not mint packaged, condition with manual and box.

    Decapatation video a hoax?

    you might want to reevaluate what you've been told.... but is every one sure that rings are forbidden by muslims? Cuz, a lot of arab customs are a cultural not religious thing (i.e. it's part of their Persian or Aryan heritage or something) Nevertheless, that's not such a big case against the...

    Decapatation video a hoax?

    well, i'm not one for conspiracy theories, but if ABC says something, they'd better be sure they're right -- they're "the most watched news source in America" after all. So, don't go throwing the hoax idea out the window.

    .9999~ = 1. Prove me wrong

    guys, guys, don't fight - can't we just agree to disagree? no, but really, who brought philosophy into this? the epic battle between JSweeney and GameDude is a battle between ideologies, and it's also really unnecessary. I agree with both of you (really) but you both seem to be on different...

    Did games ever teach you anything?

    Oh yeah, once I had a genetics test in high school and I had to write an essay on evolution. It was around the time I was playing Metal Gear Solid, so I went off on a tangent and wrote the whole thing using information on the lecture Liquid gives to Snake about "law of assymetry" and stuff. I...

    Did games ever teach you anything?

    i was reading the NYTimes article here: http://nytimes.com/2004/03/25/science/25EVOL.html this egghead prof said "the findings 'raise the intriguing possibility that the decrement in masticatory muscle size removed an evolutionary constraint on encephalization.'" I only knew what that means cuz...
