What do you guys rate the Stop Sign Antivirus out of 10.
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

"Do you have worms?"
I hate this fruity commercial garbage.
I use AVG. That's it.

AVG is OK for what it does. Get McAfee or Trend micro.
I use Avast. Totally free for individual use, not the resource hog of something like Norton and gets more praises from security geeks than some of the best commercial programs. There's no reason to even think about buying virus software anymore.

Both McAfee and PC-cillin gobble up too much resources for any usefullness they provide.bigjohnson said:
Stay away from them.
I use AVG because it will not run consecutively and incessantly in the background.
"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.

Simply not true. The McAfee consumer stuff is annoyinly chatty but the Enterprise stuff (get it from CDW) is amazingly good and fairly light FOR WHAT IT DOES. Simple AV scanning isn't enough anymore.KarmaSutra said:
In case you know more than I do, keep in mind I write AV software, and have code shipping from at least 2 different AV vendors as I write this.
What is your personal level of expertise in this domain?

Kaspersky isn't very good at securing your system with the AV alone. NOD32 from ESET is the best in the world most likely but they don't have a very strong salea nd support organization around their product for USA customers.
For American consumers Trend Micro and McAfee (Enterprise) are the best bet. For what it's worth my code is only running in ONE of those. The other product I helped write is stronger in Europe.
Realistically the only thing I would STOP using is Norton. If you have that uninstall and get something else.
I've ridden in almost every airliner on the market, I guess next time a carrier needs to buy new planes they should buy what I like.
EDIT:
Look at the latest CU AntiVirus testing.
