@RodAox: It's not Paypal's fault. They were just skipping the middle-man and taking their rightful bailout money directly from the taxpayer! Hell, they probably saved a few million in lobbying and bureaucratic overhead in the process! Kudos to Paypal for saving us money!

I wish the gov't would STOP even THINKING about doing anything and just put out a hard-line: That's it. We're done. Sort it out yourselves.

All this wishy-washy allowing for speculation about the gov't next step is killing ANY chance of recovery. Ugh...

@mrgenius:

It may be fitting from a liberal perspective.

Or even a libertarian perspective, if the perspective is bent over.

ESET is TERRIBLE. It USED to be good, but went to the trash fairly quick after Leo Laporte made them popular. I was infected by a virus that completely trashed my machine for a day or so and ESET, McAfee, and Symantec couldn't fix it. (Eset let it in, none of the others could properly clean it either.) Thank God though, because Kaspersky cleaned it in one swoop.


I refuse to use anything else these days. Just MHO though.
