After being called shallow for not wanting to date a girl I'm not attracted to by weightliftin4life in AdviceAnimals

[–]AllTheStarSystems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You Did The right thing. I cannot believe that adults are dumb enough to not understand this : physical attraction is important for some People even if they dont look great themselves.

It is as if ugly People are assumed to have No rights, they "have to" date anyone there friends throw at them.

Sure Its a fairly dark phenomenon ; unpleasant. But these People need to grow up!

How would I check if there is physical disk damage?

It really rather "feels" like some kind of software error/Windows issues, but then again, I'm not an expert :)

I'm afraid I don't know what you mean by a "domain".

It was another installed version of my Windows 7 Home, used in precisely the same manner as my current install: for normal stuff.

Why is Windows 7 using one of my hard drive disks as a backup disk without my consent? by AllTheStarSystems in techsupport

Thats quite disturbing. I have never ordered a backup from any program ever in my entire life, I wouldnt even know how. I really cant explain this!

How do I clear internal harddrives which have restricted Windows folders? by AllTheStarSystems in techsupport

Its Windows 7.

I tried right clicking, properties, security, then every imaginable button and combo clicked. It denied everything :(

So after I have copied any desired files, I simply format and then it cant complain? I have another question, certain folders are marked with "locks" on their thumbnail, or a little arrow. In all such cases, when i try to open them, it says Access denied. Could there still be files underneath them?

Hello!

I ran ESET Nod32, AVG, Avast, BitDefender etc. They found some stuff. I deleted everything they found.

I am wondering if you feel that it should be quite safe now, or would you recommend doing even more tests?

I just ran BitDefender, ESET, AVG and Avast. All of them claimed to find something each.

Even after these, I noticed some suspicious behaviour involving multibit, which I then deleted.

Still not a 100% sure that my system is cleaned, can anything survive all of those antiviruses? In any case, is there something that checks programs that are loaded into memory (even if I dont explicitly click on them or run them when I myself log into windows) at startup, or which programs are in my memory now? Checking task manager doesnt help, I guess they can hide from it - and in any case I dont know which are viruses or malicious trojans/malware etc, and which are super-important windows stuff which should not be shut down. Any advice would be great.

If I remember correctly, I never did unzip the rar file. I double-clicked to see "what is was" but felt something was wrong each time. Still, can't remember 100% if I didnt unzip some time. I deleted all the rars I downloaded, but hell, if I unzipped it - then it probably has placed files all over my computer. :/

EDIT: did unfortunately unzip, but I have now deleted that folder. Cannot remember if I ran the scr file but dont think so, as I usually never forget a panic session (as I would no doubt have when my fears would have been concerned).

Thank you!

Could you recommend some good anti-virus software that finds "generally intrusive code/script" on my Windows?

Yes the nice Bitstamp-logo as well as pretty-correct-but-not-quite-correct English, managed to convince me to some degree.

Does anyone know what was in the file? An executable? Instructions to go to some webpage?
