So, I have been thinking.
1) I HATE the fact Steam installs SPYWARE.
WHAT YOU SAY? SPYWARE??????????

Yes, YES, YYYEEEESSSS SPYWARE.
They know when I startup my pc , they know when I shutdown my pc.
And I will soon check out what they know when I am running my pc.

Want me to do a packet trace and show you?
Look at the steam icon in your system tray after you reboot.
What do you think it did as it was starting up?
What the F---K do the need THIS FOR?

OK, I have just decided.
I am not going to encourage the hundreds of people who connect to my servers regularly to support this shite.

I am HISTORY once WON is HISTORY.
Perhaps enough other people will send Valve the same message.

AND yes, my system is acting very weird since I installed "Steam"

Going to do a total reinstall.
Besides I need to do this cause I am finally going the route where I have TWO PCs. 1) that has all my personal files and development files and archived emails that is NOT physically connected to anything not even having a network card and
2) a totally bland generic install that I use to browse and read email.

I simply won't run ANY installers from any where on my "Private" pc.
Not a problem. I have 4 port keyboard/ monitor switcher and it is no deal to run two PCs always. In fact it Is a major advantage when you are waiting on one like when rebooting etc…
I said I was going to do this years ago.
NOW IS THE TIME. Especially since I found a keylogger on my pc I got from SIMPLY browsing to a web site.
This shite is getting BAD......
lol i thnk u need to run some progs like virus scanners ,adware\spywarescanners and reg cleaners i've been using these and my system is not only faster than when i didn't have them running but now i don,t have weird things happening
