Setting up IP games XLV

[Ming]

OK... i got an MS messenger account... civming

I'm posting it in this thread, because I'm only going to use it for this bunch.

Now what. How do I add people...

[CannonFodder]

I'm here...

...and I'm up on ICQ.

Read up on the "RAH RULES", add Ming to your ICQ list,
be around in 3 hours, and if we need a fourth, we'll let you know.

[Ming]

I just added him Rah...

[rah]

[War4ever]

nasty hours.

[Ming]

I wouldn't recommend loading paltalk... It had a lot of crap in it. I've spent the morning removing it and MS Messenger from my machine. I'll only be using ICQ in the future unless somebody finds a good conference program that actually works, and doesn't infect your machine with things like gator and other crap.

[War4ever]

yeah good call. i am in the process of removing this crap too....lame

[Ming]

I ran spybot this morning... and it simply went NUTS.
It removed over 140 files...

I couldn't believe all the crap that came along with the programs rah loaded last night.

And since MS Messenger didn't work for conference calls, I see no reason to keep it.

[War4ever]

agree, i used spybot too...i got about 122 suspsicious crap.... what a waste that was....

[Ming]

I also had to clean out a few directories worth of programs... at least the uninstall got rid of most of it.

It even installed some crap in my start up directory... while I had gotten rid of all the nasty little programs, my machine was getting tied up in start up looking for things I had already deleted. Finally cleaned out the last of it. My computer hopefully (knock on wood) is back to normal.

THANKS RAH

Maybe this should go in the etiquette thread.
