Mother of all conception months Graduates

My news - I am on the laptop! :happydance: McAfee gone, fully cleaned up, avast installed, firefox installed, bing removed, itunes and my work programme installed, updates all done, recovery media in the process of being created. Hoorah!

we're wondering if its McAfee thats causing our PC to run slow, slow to start up slow to do anything normally:shrug:
 
yay peanut! i have no big software on my laptop after i mistakenly thought that safe internet meant norton security - norton security plus old dial up internet pus far away from telephone exchange = laptop punched by dh requiring replacement lol

never known anything to slow a computer down so much as norton!

yeah been talking to dh he is so riled up! he he! he noted all the points that he was being disciplined for and i pointed out that all of those points could be put back on to the manager from another site and more! and nothing is being done with that manager. in fact they proper bum this guy! another point was inconsistent results in a mystery report, my dh got 100% 2 months in a row and the 25 months previously all results were 97.5 and more every single one above the company average. so one bad result = inconsistent apparantly! oh i am going to be doing soooooo much printing of documents in the next few shifts!

need to change the subject . . . . i burnt my tongue eating my dinner too quick cos i was starving! grrrrr hate burnt tongue!
 
nomore definitely print off hard copies or every email and document you can find to support your case.

Norton and McAfee are both total crap. Best to uninstall them but you need a tool to remove all the rubbish they leave behind. The McAfee one is here: https://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/MCPR.exe Not had Norton in an age so can't remember but I bet a google will find it.

Avast and AVG are both excellent free anti-virus and apparently Microsoft Essentials is good though I can anever bring myself to get more Microsoft than I absolutely have to. I wouldn't get AVG with Windows 7 though as there was a glitch before Christmas that stuffed it up and they didn't bother to do any fix for over a month (assuming one has even been done now).
 
Oh Nomore I hate that too. Once you've burnt your tongue you can't even taste the rest of your tea!!

Peanut yay for a functioning laptop :wohoo: I've never been a fan of Norton or McAfee, personally I use AVG free and I've never had any issues with it.
 
I totally agree with Peanut and so does DH :haha: Avast and AVG are so much better and they're free!
 
oh the last time i had norton was like 3 laptops back! never ever again! i am a laptop dunce really but even i know to steer clear of those two lol i keep getting a mcafee sign come up every 30 mins - it seems - as that is what was originally on the laptop as a free trial im just like no no no no no no NO!

oh my goodness everytime i see that new aero caramel advert come on tv i just want one! why cant i find one in my local shops! this is just cruel!
 
matt has norton and man does his laptop run slow. this one seems to have some over heating issues so a ishould send it for a hoover. my old one blew the mother board some time. I wnat some documents off it so its sat in the front room
 
nomore run the link I posted above as that will remove any remaining mcafee stuff. If you're getting alerts then there is still crap on there slowing things down and interfering with your functions.
 
Oh Nomore the new aero caramels are delicious!! You get them in asda. So light and caramelly nom nom nom :wohoo:
 
We were talking about male midwives and because of my past abuse I said I'll ask only for female midwives to be at the birth. Apparently that's 'sexist' and what would I do if there was only a male?

I feel so hurt by his comments, he must expect me to be over 10 years of sexual abuse and a trial that I lost... but it doesn't work like that :cry:
 
Oh hon :hugs: I think men really don't think sometimes. If that's how you feel I'm positive if you explain it to your mw then they will understand exactly where you are coming from.

I know the midwife will be fine with it as they know my past but it's just... him. I don't know if it's a male thing or if he really just doesn't get it.
 
Sequeena I posted on your journal too. Gilz is right men don't get it. Of course it's not sexist. Most people prefer someone of the same sex dealing with anything below the waist and that's without your history added to the mix. :hugs:

Thanks hun, he got really offended as if he were a midwife or something. 'what if he's gay' IT DOESN'T MATTER!!
 
Where do we get these men. It's not sexit at all everyone has the right to ask for male or female staff. There aren't that many male midwives so the chances of getting one are slim.

If he was the only qualified available you could have a student in their final year come in and do the birth and just have there just incase.

At the moment I dn't mind having a bloke but I was delivered by a man but I don't have your history. offer to have some one repeatedly violate your oh then be pt back in a very similer situation and see how he reacts. grrrr
 
Exactly :( When I went into hospital I was put on a ward with 3 men and OH commented on how he wasn't comfortable on my behalf... so what's the difference between them and the male midwife? They were ill, I doubt they'd have had THAT on their mind! :dohh:
 
he should be pleased you let him touch you at all give him a mini slap
 
Bed time girls 8 am at work and i am an hour late heading to bed
