A thing or two.

Something's wrong with my laptop! The battery's not functioning and if my charger gets disconnected anytime, the laptop will be completely turned off! Now I have to wait for a few minutes to wait for my computer to shut down completely. So people, don't keep your laptop running 24 hours. If you love them, try and refrain from visiting under-aged websites or downloading massive programs that could easily damage your PC. Trust me, some certain websites are crawling with devastating evil worms. I'm talking logically here and I don't mean those earthworms! Damn, I should have never kept my laptop running for days! Why?

Because I was downloading some programs, songs and latest movies [not pornography*]. Movies like for example; 'You Don't Mess With The Zohan'. Actually, I downloaded it from LimeWire. Can you imagine opening LimeWire for hours without even closing it? In fact, it slows down other PC users that connects to the same gateway connection that you are using too because LimeWire downloads music, videos, programs etc. from other hosts. Do you know that when you download a song/video, it counts as stealing them from others who have it. [What can you do? You need those songs/video so badly, just steal it already. I do it too!] But from what I heard from an acquaintance of mine from the UK, downloading the songs and stuffs are going to get banned. You've to buy them online :( What a pity. Let's hope that they don't ban it soon! The last time I opened my LimeWire, it found 10,595 hosts or peers or whatever. Now that is seriously a buzz-kill! The connection couldn't even come through!

Programs such as the game 'Halo: Combat Evolved'. I downloaded it using BitComet. Well, it took me about 3 days for it to finish. The size is.. ZOMG! 1GB! Could you imagine that?! I sacrificed my laptop's free disk space just for a game that I can purchase! I'm too lazy to go out and buy it. Otherwise, it is going to cost me money and downloading from the net cost me the lagness for my laptop.

It's not lagging now because I removed the viruses using
avast! Anti-virus. Some of 'em were pop-up adverts, trojanhorses, worms etc. That is why don't--and I mean DON'T download programs from untrusted sites. And you know, some anti-virus IS a virus! So be careful which site you are headed or your PC will get infected. Friggin' scammers these days. I hate 'em! I know some of you have an anti-virus which is way more uber-secure and stronger than mine. Memet has one but I forgot the name. Farewell.
