I could bring up the posts you wrote about me. With your opinions portrayed
as the truth. Something about, the worst person ever to be found on the
internet. How about the claims that David and myself left malwarebytes on bad
terms? How about your having to back peddle when you exposed your source and
he was questioned about it. How very odd that his reply didn't match what you
claimed he told you.

I could go on, but obviously there's no real need to do so. You're a liar,
and we all know it.

I'm sure you'll be aware that I didn't refer to this kind of 'box'! ;-)

It's good to know that you have looked.

However ........

I wonder if you also read this:-

1. Download/run the appropriate scripts by my colleague, IE MVP Kai
Schätzl: http://iefaq.info/index.php?action=a...133&artlang=en

Tip: The file named ie8-rereg.all.zip contains both of the scripts below.

2a. Close all open applications (i.e., anything with an icon on the
taskbar) then right-click on the script named ie8-rereg.32on64.cmd and
select Run as Administrator, then reboot.

2b. Close all open applications (i.e., anything with an icon on the
taskbar) then right-click on the script named ie8-rereg.64on64.cmd and
select Run as Administrator, then reboot again.

3. IMPORTANT! => Now close all but one (1) IE window & reset IE8
Advanced settings again per
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/w...lorer-settings,
reboot one last time & test.

You will find all above in this thread:-

As I've told you already - no.

There's no way, to my knowledge, that an 'average' computer user would
realise that by downloading scripts as recommended by PA Bear, he/she
*might* also be permanently 'infecting' their machine.

If the computer *appears* to operate satisfactorily after the 'experts'
have 'cleaned' it, no-one is ever going to examine said machine again -
are they?!!

Yep, just my hinky feeling - but I *know* that PA Bear has lied. <shrug>

Some folk here have the technical ability to test my theory. One day,
maybe someone will. I'd love nothing more than to be proved wrong,
believe me.

You do not have the skill set, you are a failure.

Whatever was truth/fact before it entered *your brain* can never be
trusted after it exited, asshat.

That's even if a truth/fact even entered your brain. I think about 50%
of your brain pain is running as a combo bull****/FUD/paranoia/lie
generator 24/7/365.

It's a long story!

You can learn about Mark B. Hoover at his web site above. He was a
moderator on the original Annexcafe Scorched-Earth newsgroup - now
closed down by the server owner. By all accounts, a nasty piece of work!

You'll find an interesting/unusual site if you go to Dogagent.
Dave Higham is a nasty piece of work too! I know, from personal
interaction! ;-)

I'll see if I can find anything regarding TechAngel on WayBack Machine.
It was a great place to play that I found on the Annexcafe User2User web
site when I first went there some five years ago.
