First of all, I'm sorry my solution was "half assed", but like I have already stated, Spybot S&D doesn't permenently remove it. And just for the record, Ad-aware and Norton Anti-Virus doesnt stop it from coming back either, and I'm too lazy to find out what file it came in on to delete it.

Second of all, I didnt mind helping Typhoid, because I like to help with people's problems too, if thats what you were implying. I dont think that's what you meant when you said "I like helping others with their problems and not giving a half assed solution", but I just want to make sure it is known that typhoid wasnt annoying me at all. I enjoyed helping him and showing him the joy and wonders of Firefox.

Third of all, although the question does involve spyware, which is a computer thing, Typhoid thought there was an error in his signiture. He wasnt seeking help or trying to get rid of whatever the problem was (because at first he didn't know). He just wanted to tell everyone not to click the link in his sig if one happened to appeared. If something like this DOESNT belong in the writer's guild, then I dont know what does.

It's a sig & avatar testing thread...Typhoid was testing to see if anyone else could see the link in his sig. The test proved that no, we cant, unless we have said spyware. It would have been rude of me to say "typhoid, you tested your sig, so now go get your solution in the computer forum". I felt it appropriate to give him a solution to his test.

If things had been different, and typhoids original post had been "I have spyware that is affecting my computer and causing things to be hyperlinked, how do I fix it?", then I would agree that it belonged in the computer forum. But, alas, that wasnt his question at all.

You read my reply a little wrong Vampyr. I never directed the half assed part towards anyone, except maybe myself seeing as I wrote it at 5am . I was referring to if someone asked a question in the computer help thread. So my reply wasn't meant to be hurtful in any way to anyone. Just giving a little heads up in case Typhoid doesnt know.

But i did/do kow. But all that happened was a secondary conversation regarding my sig. Much like the conversation you two are having. So then, isnt there a thread for what you two are doing as well?

Hey Germy, if any of these are wrong, PM me the words, and for no reason i just threw in a bunch of random quotes that i liked..

Woah! I looked at your avatar about 50 times and I didn't even realize that it was one of our posters. If I see an error in the lyrics I'll be sure to PM you. It makes me feel good that you care enough to put our stuff in your sig. Mad +rep yo.

Germy, you have to send me more of your stuff. I know I want to use Atari and Kind of a Girl in one of my films. But I'd like to hear more of what you have to offer if that's cool.

I'll try to get some more stuff to you. It's been kind of weird since my parents switched computers when I was in college, so I don't have as many songs on it anymore. I'll definitely get you something at some point though.

PS: Did you ever get a PBF book?
