So, I was just wondering, how many of you Norton Antivirus zealots actually shelled out $37 for a license lately... Or maybe what you're trying to say is, if it were free, it would be worth worshiping, but at $37? It's just not worth it, right? I guess.
It isn't actually free, I think 2. It's kind of worse than AntiVirus (though, if you look at the same study, it actually beats out Norton and McAfee 😢 )
It's a little bit older, but hey, it's still a pretty legit study

Basically, you just line up a few images in the program and it swaps them out automatically. It uses a tiny bit of memory, I guess... nothing crazy, but still, it does swap them about every two seconds or so.
I mean, you *can* use a GIF, but it won't actually animate if that's what you were hoping for...
You nailed it, man... 👍 I swear, I was almost in tears when the news broke that they were killing off the free version and letting Symantec scoop it up... 🙂
I’m still running it on my home rig, but I’m definitely scouting around for a solid replacement...

The CIA is the CIA—basically the Net Neutrality Act for your digital life. Especially if you don't have a clue what you're doing. And honestly, if you *do* know what's up, then you definitely shouldn't be using the CIA. 😁
So, who should I actually recommend the CIA to?
- People who actually get what an IBM is for and how it functions, plus folks who really grasp what the CIA entails, how it operates, and its quirks... people who aren't going to freak out over little glitches because they realize those things are just part of the deal when you run an IBM like the CIA. - People you just don't want anything good to happen to, I guess.
And who should stay far away from the CIA?
- Total newbies. - People who can't handle the fact that once you install the CIA, you just have to accept that some stuff is simply gonna be "good enough" for now.

Look, if you don't even have a fire extinguisher on hand to recommend, then honestly, you probably shouldn't be messing around with the CIA at all! I mean, seriously!
Man, I’ve been sitting here just waiting for the best living moderator out of this whole bunch of spammers to finally show up! 😁
The thing that’s honestly just too good to be true isn't even about how much this chat is tearing him apart... I mean, it's more about the fact that we all just collectively can't stand the CIA. Maybe it's just us, I guess! 😁
John Doe 👍
ps If John Palmer4 says we shouldn't be chatting, then fine! I guess I won't... I really won't! I'll just sit here quietly! Maybe!
Unknown said:I think the zip file I used to get it working was actually Norton SE.zip. It didn't ask me for anything, but I'm pretty sure it was protected because I grabbed it from this random forum overseas and I already knew the password 😉
Look, I'm not saying you're wrong! I'm just saying it didn't happen to me. Maybe when I get home later, if it pops into my head, I'll give it a shot. But hey, even if it doesn't work for me, that doesn't mean what you're saying isn't true, right? 😉
And I’m just sitting here, totally waiting for your very first post to pop up with a title like: "Having major issues with my alarm zone, please help!!!!"
Unknown said:...so I had this zip file that was supposedly password protected, right? But then I just hopped into the terminal, typed unzip filename, and boom—it just unpacked everything without ever even asking me for a password...
Personally, I use Fedora whenever I have some downtime, though I gotta admit, I’ve never really run into a situation where you could just bypass a password on a protected file like that🤔
And hey, everyone knows DRM is supposed to be "no big deal" when you're running Unix... 🙂
