I've searched Google, but there's nothing on how to remove it, or anything about what it is. It's basically resetting all of my browsers to these settings: Homepage: qooqlle.com, custom google search, searches through qooqlle. Relatively annoying. In other hijacks people said to delete the help folder in Windows, yet, that's not how qooqlle is saving itself. Here's my hijack this: [hide]Logfile of Trend Micro HijackThis v2.0.4 Scan saved at 3:10:57 PM, on 03/11/2010 Platform: Windows 7 (WinNT 6.00.3504) MSIE: Internet Explorer v8.00 (8.00.7600.16385) Boot mode: Normal Running processes: C:\Windows\system32\Dwm[Caution: Executable File] C:\Windows\Explorer[Caution: Executable File] C:\Windows\system32\taskhost[Caution: Executable File] C:\Program Files\Razer\Lycosa\razerhid[Caution: Executable File] C:\Program Files\Razer\DeathAdder\razerhid[Caution: Executable File] C:\Program Files\Razer\Lycosa\razertra[Caution: Executable File] C:\Program Files\Razer\DeathAdder\razertra[Caution: Executable File] C:\Program Files\Razer\DeathAdder\razerofa[Caution: Executable File] C:\Program Files\Mumble\mumble[Caution: Executable File] C:\Windows\system32\taskmgr[Caution: Executable File] C:\Users\Justin\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome[Caution: Executable File] C:\Users\Justin\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome[Caution: Executable File] C:\Program Files\Xfire\Xfire[Caution: Executable File] C:\Users\Justin\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome[Caution: Executable File] C:\Program Files\Spybot -

Anyone got ideas? I used spybot and adaware...did not find it.

I've been playing A.V.A for the past year. Starting to play Source after not playing it but owning it for so long. Going to see who far in Cevo and ESEA I can go with Source. Also just got juked out of going to Korea for IeSF too. Fun times.

Online with the campaign. Best of both worlds? Or did you mean versus by online? Lol.

The first chapter in the campaign on L4D is really...bland...and really just kind of empty? It feels very different from the other campaigns...so disliked the first level. The second chapter and the finale were boss though. Was enjoyable. Definitely amazing in any regard in versus though. Epic.

Twins. I don't have a problem with 40 year olds, but fifty-year olds I do. By the time the kid is 15, you're going to be 65. What medical problems could arise from 55 - 65, which could completely ruin your child's childhood? What medical conditions are going to keep you from taking your kid (male) skydiving, boating, doing sports (can you even tackle at 60, without breaking something, and play for more than 20 minutes?). I don't know what females would want to do, but there's probably some limitation there too. To me it feels like once you hit 60, your life is going to start being limited by dying. There's people out there who are healthy 60 year olds, but they've exercised and ate correctly throughout their life. The kid just won't have a childhood to look at. Also depending on how his/her friends treat them for having parents in their 60s/70s, has also got to be a huge factor in their mentality. At 35 - 39, it feels like you're at the edge, do it or most likely force an unhappy childhood on your child. But if you know you're going to be able to keep up with the kid, and not be limited by health, then I guess why not? I just can't wrap my head around why you'd have a kid when in 15 years your chances of dying from pretty much anything increases exponentially. Is that fair to the kid and to your spouse?

We're conditioned to despise homeless people and think ill of them. What we've labelled them as and have made them represent isn't really who homeless people are. Yet, when I think of the homeless, I think of a ravaging, mad man and filthy, disgusting, old lady. I really can't force myself to think of the homeless in any other mentality or to have any other characteristics. I think there's a difference between those who have the ability & will to not be homeless, yet choose to do so for whatever reasons and those who were put into a homeless situation beyond their control (sickness, addictions). The first group, I can't really think of them as anything, as that is their lifestyle. They've chosen that lifestyle and if they don't want to change, then why not? That lifestyle isn't hurting society as much as other lifestyles do. It's their choice, is it not? If they can survive through whatever methods they go through and they aren't hampering on other people's lives as drastically as other lifestyles, why not? Why is it wrong to centre them out and accuse them of doing a negative lifestyle? Those who are homeless, but not by their own will, is where those who have a 'typical job', can lend a helping hand or that's where the rest of society should be jumping in. Not trying to fix something that has been labelled as one generic term; "The Homeless Problem". Just my opinion.

I hope the game can live up to the hype it's creating. Would hate to see it fall short now.

Imagine what is lurking in those bushes now when you take a stroll at night.

A $100k prize for an LoL tournament disagrees with you. http://g4tv.com/thefeed/blog/post/706182/League-of-Legends-Announces-100K-Prize-Pool-for-Season-One.html I think the game is horrible though. Why that game would get a $100k prize pool is beyond me.

So I finally know another living being who has played Dark Alliance. I didn't play it on the xbox, I played it on the ps1 or ps2 I think. I spent a lot of time on it and then I remember being disappointed with the sequel they made for it, if it was the sequel at all.

LOL. When I read the title, Ganon came directly to mind. Though I guess that's just because he's the first villain to ever appear to be a true villain to me. I actually think the villains in video games are much less symbolic of a 'villain' that you'd see in a movie or read about it in a comic or novel. I've got tons of villains pouring in from comics, film and books but from video games? They just really don't feel all too evil or live up to the standard films or comics have.

I think a lot of the hate towards the iPhone stems from everyone wanting to see an open source platform beat out the #1, proprietary platform. That and the tech media fuels this with headlines like "Is This the Next iPhone Killer", "Android: The iPhone Killer". It's like there's this imaginary hate towards the iPhone because it is the largest selling or number 1 phone being sold. So I think those that have never used an iPhone start to buy into this to further justify to themselves that not buying an iPhone or not having one is somehow 'superior'. I know the iPhone does have problems with AT&T and of course with Apple being the elitist company they are, but all things considered, the iPhone, original, was amazing. They've kept topping it every single time except recently. Only with the iPhone 4 and os4 update was Apple playing 'catch-up' for the first time. I think if we go back to 2008 and 2009, the iPhone series is still #1, but for so far in 2010, Android phones are really forcing Apple to go for a next big leap or be in a tight competitive race for once. Then again HTC/Android/Google/Motorola are all still playing catch-up with the iPhone, even if some of them have gotten on the same level as the iPhone, Apple still has time to do something extraordinary to put everyone 2-3 years behind. In my opinion fan boy pride and the natural hate towards the #1 brand is what gets people to buy the android based phones. People overlook what android or iPhone offer or how the individual phones perform. I think in the sense of UI and user-friendly software, android/HTC is definitely a good distance ahead of the iPhone 4. Hardware, well for performance the Desire has performed flawlessly so far, even with having 3 tabs open in Dolphin, music going and doing a recording. I mean, I want to see the iPhone do that. Flash still fails on the Desire, lol. AMOLED: The largest advantage and main reason is that it doesn't require an LED backlight. This saves space & battery usage (by a lot). But because of that, it lacks the ability to be used in daylight. Super AMOLED's solve this issue: So pretty much AMOLED version 2.0, lol. --------- [/font] I would say that it really comes down to that the iPhone is more popular. Software and hardware wise, there is literally no reason why either one is better or worse than the other. Biggest advantage is the unrestricted multitasking and coupled with the 1GHz processor, it is epic. The iPhone's pretty dominating reason is that it is so popular and everyone focuses on it. You don't hear about the new, big, bad android app. You do hear about even the smallest, stupidest iPhone app. It may be too early for me to really decide which one is better, but I haven't used the actual iPhone 4 enough other than a friend lending it to me. The Os4 really can't be used to its fullest intentions on the 3GS in my opinion. Personal preference to be honest. The reasons I got the Desire was because I was tired of the iPhone, tired of the restrictions I had on the phone from Apple, and the price. I get everything and more on the Desire for $30 less than I did on the iPhone. Plus people have already said "Woah, is that the new iPhone?". Which has become irritating. - I may be slightly incorrect on the AMOLED stuff.

The Desire has been out in Europe for awhile, but it was just released to Canadian customers yesterday. I don't think Americans have it yet. Been using it for awhile and it is definitely better than the iPhone 3GS in terms of handling with the buttons and touchscreen. The screen looks better in a side-by-side view. It's definitely a #2 phone if you put the iPhone 4 above it, even with the antenna issue. No idea if anyone here is looking to buy a phone or one that isn't an iPhone, but if you are, and don't have anyone to give you 1on1 answers or anything specific, just ask away! So far the only problem I've encountered is using it out in the sun because of the AMOLED screen. It really isn't as bad as people make it out to be, but it certainly is there. Only negative thus far. Inside with artifical light, the screen is amazing. Atually my monitor is like two years old and the screen on the Desire looks better than my monitor. Not really a fair comparison at all but it gives a perspective. --> I've used the iPhone 3G and 3GS combined for 2 years roughly. So I know what I'm comparing it against. --> I've had the Desire for about 10 hours now. If anyone wants to recommend me some android apps, do so. I've got Dolphin, Steel and ChompSMS and some others, but am looking for anything else.

Midievel. Totally forgot about this game. I like kept dying every single time, but this was one of my first games I had ever played. Thanks for the memory. :) A lot of these games like Spyro, LoZ, most of the nintendo games, bring a lot of memories back.

If Jagex takes revambing combat seriously, they will have endless possibilities in giving level 90's, 100s, 110s and the 120 easily. At the rate that Jagex is going though, they're going to screw up the combat revamp and are going to continue to ignore the main problem (their game is out-dated) and try to put in a temproary fix that is going to hurt the economy and make 80% of the rest of the skill useless. :/

I'm not asking for a specific list, nor do I think I have a 'favourite' one. I'm just making petty conversation. I know these lists are suppose to be personal, but I also wouldn't think people would hate Fallout 3 or 'never get into' Left 4 Dead. So when I'm bringing these games up I'm just surprised they aren't personally favourited by you or hold any value to you. I'm not trying to force them on you or anything, just discussing the games. When I said it was an adventure/RPG themed list, I meant that that is what it seems, even if it is your personal one. Your personal list is an adventure/RPG themed list. I'm not saying this should be the adventure/RPG list, I am just describing it. I think you guys got the wrong impression from my post.

For these lists, you should find people who are knowledgeable in different genres (FPS's, RTS's, RPG's). This list really hits me as an adventure/RPG themed list, even if it isn't specifically tied to the genre. I just noticed you didn't put Fallout 3 on here (if you got into it?). -.-
