"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I have a virus and my virusscan can't remove it.

New Poly Win32 is the name of the virus.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

What virus scan are you using? Norton isn't worth sh!t, i would personally recommend AVG virus protection.

mcafee.

I just installed hijack this and ewido security to help fix my problem. Having installed ewido, i'm amazed at just how many bugs i had on my computer.....that mcafee failed to recognize.

I have report logs posted on another website, so hopefully i can find a resolution?

I'm a pc tech myself. Start in safe mode, with interenet, and go to www.trendmicro.com and run the free scan.
Let it remove whatever it wants.
Then restart in safe mode and run www.activescan.com
Let is remove whatever it wants.
update your AVG/Norton/McAfee and let them remove anything they want.
Download a DOS version of "Fprot" and hopefully you have a FAT32 partitioned HDD. If you don't then skip this step.
Run Fprot from a Win98 bootable floppy, and let it remove whatever it wants.

Spybot
Adaware
HijackThis (make sure you know what you are removing).

I have removed pretty much every virus/spyware I've encountered by doing this routine. Good luck!

Also, to help prevent viruses, use the firefox browser instead of internet explorer.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
