| Actually, I use a combo of ESET Smart Security along with MalwareBytes. They work rather well together. |

My view of Autism and Asperger's? A computer that's wired up a little differently and with a specialized OS that's self-tweaked instead of making a copy and utilizing it on yourself.
One reason I thought the "In crowd" was a center for stupidity. I'd rather be myself than what others want me to be. |

| Actually, 1.6GHz with 2GB of RAM.. Windows 7 x86 would run rather well. ..now under that is a different story. I have it running on my 6-year-old's P4 Dell (P4@2GHz, 1GB of RAM) and it runs alright. All he does is play a few games and doodle.. maybe surf the 'net once in awhile. Nothing that require... |

What type of system is it.. I might be able to help you with that. |

| I'm not a fan of Windows 8. I run Windows 7 on almost everything, except the servers. My router (PE1750) runs Gentoo Linux at the moment. I'm debating switching to OpenBSD. The other servers run FreeBSD and a few run Gentoo. My Tablet (Kindle Fire) and my phone (Samsung Captivate) run CyanogenMod 10... |

I use ESET Smart Security here. I have *NEVER* been nailed by anything since.
Kaspersky's CEO ticked me off.. He said everyone's computers should be monitored and I ditched his software in a heartbeat.
BTW: ESET Smart Security is built by the same people who made NOD32 back in the day. |

| Most people think we're weird because we don't think like them. I was labeled "Weird" because I don't accept "That's not possible". Anything's possible if you have a large imagination, the brain power, and the knowledge of what you want to accomplish. Having a team that think like you helps, too. ..... |

Thanks. The Navy was actually a great fit for me. Unfortunately, I didn't know how plugged up my rate was (160% manned at the time), so I couldn't have joined again after I have gotten out.
It's easy to get out.. but a bit harder to get back in. Word of advice. |

| Well, my name is James. A few years ago, I was diagnosed with Asperger's. I wish I knew of this condition when I was younger, since I always knew I was an "odd ball". I started in computers back in 1984. It was an old Atari 800XL with a 1010 and a 1050. I learned how to rip apart computer programs a... |

| Red Bull doesn't do much to me. It seems that anything with a ton of B-Vitamins works rather well instead of being loaded with caffeine. |
