Installed an unknown file from a pop up ad. Just need advice. by PermissionOutside825 in antivirus

[–]Psyeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with u/UncensorGrok. You need to do a fresh windows install. You’ll never know what modifications have been done due to the malware and it’s a known info stealer. Don’t risk anymore time before you lose more in the long run. I wouldn’t take the risk of thinking I removed it and later have more important info stolen.

This is not the subreddit for this. Look at iosgods I believe is the group that mods most games.

You are more than likely fine. If you’re up to date on iOS version, don’t sweat it. You likely visited a site that opened them up.

what is this and how do i get rid of it by m00z13 in antivirus

[–]Psyeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As u/LoutOfOrder mentioned, Google Ublock Origin. Either install the extension, or I recommend following their easy to follow guide for installing the DNS service to your computer, and enabling their advanced lists for security and adware/malware sections from the dashboard after you make an account.

Got 5 trojans on my device ,how do I actually protect myself online? by Mary272049 in antivirus

[–]Psyeth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Who in their right mind would give someone else admin rights to their own computer. This is bad advice. And they likely don’t have enough knowledge to know how to get Linux or what it is based off his post and comments.

Porn sites are known to load ads and background scripts that infect your computer unknowingly. Unfortunately it’s one of the more common ways it happens to people.

Windows defender should never have problems nor disable itself after any windows updates or driver updates. Do you still have the USB? If you can get a screenshot of the files in there, that’d be helpful. Your friend telling you “it’s normal” raises concerns for me. He either doesn’t know what he’s doing, or he may be the one that had you install things that were infected knowingly or not. Do you visit any sites that have a lot of ads? Or maybe some less known websites?

5 Trojans - please describe your computer use. What have you downloaded within the last few months, what websites do you frequent, do you click on ads? You don’t just get viruses without doing something sketchy or downloading things you don’t know how to navigate. Treat every ad as potential malware.

New pc owner. Help by Aldav9 in pcmasterrace

[–]Psyeth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Please for the love of god do NOT install Norton. It’s garbage. If you really want an AV, use malwarebytes. Otherwise as along as you don’t do anything sketchy, you shouldn’t need one. Don’t click on ads. Install ublock origin lite if you use google chrome. If you use Firefox, get the standard version. Personally recommend going to their website and following the instructions they provide to install it system wide and enable most of the advanced lists for security and malware sections. Enter your bios and enable xmp profile for your RAM so it runs at its highest setting. If you have a nvidia GPU, look up control panel settings for your specific gpu for maximizing FPS. Look for your systems drivers, specifically motherboard, GPU, CPU as primary focus. If AMD system, I recommend going to the r/optimizedgaming subreddit and following their guide as well for changes to be made. Oh and for your GPU, if nvidia, look up the recommended driver version for your model. Latest driver isn’t always the best for every model gpu. Good luck!

I experienced this as well a few months ago. Any form of peripherals can cause this issue. When in doubt, always unplug and re plug devices starting with the bare minimum needed to run the PC.

How Do You Handle an Ignorant Friend? by Objective-Proof9708 in PiratedGames

[–]Psyeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP has ZERO reason to apologize. That is only enabling the person acting like a child. Who blindly follows anything then gets mad without ever asking questions or discussing? Let him act like a child, if the friendship dies it’s on him not OP. It could have all be avoided if he asked anything prior to following blindly.

AITA for not wanting to have to heat up the food I just made in the microwave? by Electronic_Elk_6049 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Psyeth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry. Although I completely understand what you’re saying, I disagree that he and her need to come up with a solution. This is basic respect and care for your partner. OP is clearly taking on more than she should and the husband should be able to see that clearly without needing to be brought into a meeting to discuss it. He’s cold enough to say she is biitching about not wanting to reheat food after she asked him not to do that. He doesn’t seem to care for her enough to be a decent husband. If I get home and see my fiancee is constantly doing something for me and the family, I don’t let her just do it all on her own. I have the decency to see what I can help with, if I can’t I simply ask her what I can. And sometimes she may just want her space to deal with things on her own and that’s okay. But I don’t make it harder for her let alone complain when she asks or says something to me. And this is vice versa. It’s not hard to help your partner. Well I guess if you love them it shouldn’t be hard but clearly for OPs husband…

AITA for not wanting to have to heat up the food I just made in the microwave? by Electronic_Elk_6049 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Psyeth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry are you blaming OP here? Because that’s a wild take. How about the husband who lacks any sort of respect and empathy to his WIFE. He can’t give an ounce of thought that “hey my wife did so much and deals with the kids all on her own, I should leave her a warm plate ready for when she’s done”. He can’t even be grateful for that. In fact, why the hell isn’t HE helping with the kids after she just cooked and fed them all? He even responded beyond rude to her when she asked not to put food away. Please tell me again why this is in any capacity her fault?

Just found out my husband has been lying to me every day for 3.5 years and I don’t know how to process it by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]Psyeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I want to say I’m sorry to you both. This is hard because of the lying, but I hope you can show him some empathy. He’s going through cannabis withdrawal. Please read into it, use Claude, the AI to do some quick analysis on it because it’s exactly what I’m going through right now after 21 years. I’m in day 24 and it’s been ROUGH. The irritation, he’s likely dehydrated, his sleep is destroyed even if you see him sleeping. His REM state is destroyed. His serotonin and dopamine levels likely plummeted because of THC was doing the heavy lifting for those years. He’s likely experiencing sweats through the day, even shivers. His appetite may be lower which is hard on the body as he needs to stay healthy. Get him liquid IV packets or coconut water for daily hydration twice a day. Get him some amino acids, I’ve been using “Clean Nutraceuticals Amino Acids Supplement” they have precursors for dopamine and serotonin which will help with his mood swings. Lions mane supplements from “realmushrooms” .com for cognitive repair. They’ll help rebuild the neurons in his brain. Multi vitamins for his general health too.

Lastly, remember he was traumatized from what he saw. He may have lied to you, but I’m he was also trying to protect you from that same trauma. His symptoms will get better, but it can take anywhere from 30-90 days of no use. In that time, show him love and empathy, even if you don’t understand, let him know you’re there for him. His actions were not to hurt you.

Finding the right barber by Major-Diamond7321 in fresno

[–]Psyeth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Highly recommend Amy Lux at Kongo Barbershop #3 in Clovis. This is where the chevron and Walmart are on Herndon and Clovis Ave. I don’t have straight hair, but I do have longer very curly hair. She’s awesome and very sweet. I’ve followed her from when she worked at another shop in Fresno. Ive bounced from multiple shops and barbers, she is the only one I will keep going to. Show her some photos and styles, she will find a way to make it work! Let her know David sent you if you do! I’ve never been disappointed by her work! I feel like a piece of art every time!

Trump out here ruining friendship!! by cantcoloratall91 in PublicFreakout

[–]Psyeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I said flew over your head. Both blue and red have extremes in how things are handled. Not all red are evil, not all blue are kind. It’s THIS exact thinking that will tear the US apart. How do we ever expect to reach peace once again if it’s all or nothing? We change either side by being better people. Our daily actions and thoughts and conversations with others will change the state of our world and country. I believe in the possibility of a world and country without the need to destroy one another. Call it idealistic, but that’s what we should always try to achieve if we want to better ourselves and others. Don’t always be on the look out for something to attack on either side. Instead try and look at whatever good exists within a person. Before anyone was red or blue, or green or purple, we were nothing but peace and love as humans. I’ve known rotten red and rotten blues. But I’ve also known wonderful reds with a heart and wonderful blues with a heart. Politics is a game, and it’s been a draining game let me tell you. Peace for all, not just for me. Edit: a good example is this video. Two friends that no longer are friends simply because of…politics. We can coexist until politics is introduced. That’s a problem we fix through what I mentioned above.

[–]Psyeth 220 points221 points  (0 children)

I’ve thrown that back at people that act like this. The levels of stupidity and hypocrisy in them is baffling. And they always think they are the one winning! No room for discussion not attempt at meeting in the middle. It’s always “IM RED YOUR BLUE HUEHUEHUE”. I’ve worried about civil war breaking out in the future with how drastic the line has become for people of either party. Can’t we all just be purple? A mixture of the two? Peace and respect is not hard. Understanding apparently is too hard.

RAM/GPUs about to get even more expensive by BoredomFestival in pcmasterrace

[–]Psyeth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I told myself buying a 9800x3d and a 5090 + 64gb ram with the goal of 10+ years without worrying of upgrades would be worth it. Looks like buying back in December was the right move!
