"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Nope. Adding RAM only performs improvement when you have to little. Unless you're running a huge server, you should never need that much RAM(2gb)

256MB - 512MB should do the average person. There's no need to go nuts.

Don't need more than 512 mb of RAM for a regular ol' computer, if you plan to use it for gaming then go for 1 GB. Over 1 GB is overkill unless you do a lot of multi-tasking or use memory-intensive programs.

I like using nothing. But than you have to be more cautious. If you're computer illiterate, I suggest sticking with it. If not, than fly solo.

Norton has an odd habit of spontaneously turning its antivirus protection off.
To make matters worse, it often won't turn back on.
To make matters really bad, Norton doesn't have a "repair install" feature - remove completely and then reinstall to get it working again.
But here's the kicker - it almost never uninstalls cleanly!
And if any traces are left behind - it refuses to reinstall, and McAfee (which I think is a far better product) won't do an install either, claiming that Norton's still on there!
If you want a free antivirus that's pretty competent, www.avast.com is your ticket.
If your Norton is Effed up and won't go back in, Avast has a light enough footprint that it will install, even with Norton's spoor all over your PC.

norton is a piece o' crap--it's very invasive, hogs resources, and you cannot uninstall it without some major hassles. get the free home version of avast. it works seamlessly with xp sp2, and m$ft actually recommends it on their web site. the only real difference between the free and paid version is the latter will do script blocking on malicious web pages.

www.avast.com

beat me to it :)
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

How Do U Get Rid Of Norton?

Now I know norton is not easy to get rid of, is there anyway to get rid of it completely without slowing down my computer? What about just going to control panel and remove file, will that do the work right away?

If none of these erase completely any suggestions? Cuz my computer is really slowing down from norton.

that won't work... norton is too deep in the registry to get rid of it by using the control panel.


The best way to get rid of Norton is to go run and use the regedit command, and delete norton. If you are not familar with regedit, don't use it, because you can seriously screw up your PC.

Norton? Oh right, for viruses.

j/k. I use a mac at home, so i don't even bother installing virus or anti-spyware programs.

:rolleyes: (like anyone cares)

But anyway:

1. Look for an uninstaller. This might be in the same folder or submenu as norton.
2. If not, try the remove program panel (as you say)
3. If it's not available in the removal panel, you can at least drag stuff to the recycle bin. Anything that runs automatically would be the main target.

avast is only made for scanning right, and not deleting viruses and trojans?

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Avast

Since avast keeps scanning for viuses and tojans, will it slow down my PC like norton?
