Norton Sucks
by Stephen on Aug.21, 2005, under Rant
Ok I cant believe this, I’ve had a few problems with Norton, that once its installed after a while it starts trying to repair its installation, fair enough if it was actually able to do that but it doesn’t support the repair option, and just throws an error saying to reinstall it.
Quiz TV
by Stephen on Aug.09, 2005, under Rant
I’ve stumbled across the quiz chanel that Phil got hooked on, it seems interesting they show you a puzzle you phone in to give your answer, if you get on air with the right answer you get money, the longer the puzzles up the more moneys added to the prize, then occasionally they throw in prizes just for getting on air, garenteed money all you have to do is get through, doesn’t matter if you have the wrong answer.
On top of that they have a decent size jackpot that you can play to win, various games to get that too.

Bad Programmers
by Stephen on Mar.14, 2005, under Rant
Being a geek one of my jobs is to clean up peoples computer when things go wrong, they either get spyware, adware or a viruses, either are bad enough when they do their job, but what good is malware that just crashes your computer or causes a program to fail?
Movie certification

This also applies to computer games to a lesser extent.
Does this really have any meaning anymore?
Ok so the cinemas shouldnt let you in if you don tlook old enough n the shops shoudlnt sell to you, but a little makeup n dressing right n kids can look old enough to get into pubs and clubs so obviously they’ll have no problems with movies. And even if they cant make themsolves look old enough getting someone else to do the buying’s usually easy enough.
