Re: WPC 20K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

Well, I did run it in a VM. There was no way I'd actually install 98 otherwise.

Sometimes, I wish I can install Win 8 on a Win 98 using virtual machinee & infect the virtual machine with heck loads of worms and bacteria to test the antivirus, which one do you use?

I like NOD32 from ESET. That's the one I use.

Norton was the worst. It was a resource hog.

Norton is like a poison pill, you could put in on your enemy's PC and sleep peacefully because you know that Norton will do more than what you could do to that person.

I use Malwarebytes, thats all.

Re: WPC 20K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

Hah, I remember when I was trying out Windows 3.11... I thought I knew enough MS-DOS commands. I was proven wrong!

The modern Command Prompt and MS-DOS have very different commands! :unhappy:

I haven't mucked about with Command Prompt much. I did notice it doesn't use all the old commands though when I have ran it.

I 'hated' writing those commands, I went to a cousins place where he used to do work in DOS and I was like "What the heck is this all about, its so gross to remember such long bum commands"
And then came windows XP, he fired himself :D

I was trying to infect my Windows ME VM recently... Most viruses used exploits that weren't even compatible with ME, thankfully I tried XP, malware likes WinXP better!

I don't remember many of of MS-DOS commands.

When I use the CLI, it's for Linux.

I use win 7 at home and win xp at office (forced to), I'd install linux on all machines and watch them go crazy :D

I will ask someone to send you a birthday card wishing you a happy birthday if what you said was true.
If you don't receive the card, you may blame any random soul except me for being lazy.

Happy birthday man ;)

If you want, you can wake up in the middle of the night and come to this thread, nobody will haunt you and you can see random souls chatting about random things randomly.
