Most of your questions also could be answered via google easily so I don't bother to reply to your threads. Your inquiry about flashcarts...a simple search of these forums or the wonderful rest of the web should have your answer.

honestly, the flash carts questions have been answered already, thats on my backlog thanks to the utter uselessness of these forums, i have done my research and finally decided on 2 flash carts. The Cyclo DS which is apparently the one for pros and the Edge which is a slightly less functional but as easily powered.

My real concerns are the questions for a resource to comprehensive ipod repair is my major concern right now, as well as a detailed resource to phone unlocking and the purchasing of cables.

If you dont want to answer then you dont have to, but throw me some BS about making look on google? i dont like sifting through spam and things that ask me to pay, thats what is becoming. people have learned to manipulate googles search functions to get the spam in through the first 10 pages if you dont know exactly what your looking for.

The best antivirus software is not your brain, that's the worst kind of "anti-virus" you can have.

Nod32 has been a favorite of mine for quite some time although is quite expensive - if you have the money I suggest Nod32. For a free anti-virus Avast! Home all the way - it has yet to fail me. Norton 2009, although not free, is another good antivirus program from the early reviews (yes..it's Norton, and yes I'm saying it's decent).

As far as spybot - that's not antivirus but is good to have
Nope I'm sorry frozen but he must have done something to get a virus, I have NEVER gotten a virus from a place i wasnt expecting to be a risky place. not once. maybe i should have said the best antivirus is my brain? How can i be stupid if I'm the one who has no viruses because I avoid them without using antivirus software? maybe your friend is the stupid one. you see theres this thing called free porn, i bet he tried to get it And i never said no antispyware, i have spybot search and destroy. works well enough, but it never really turns up anything.

lol...Bit Defender is the best antivirus i found so far.Works so calmly and delete viruses very effectively.I was very happy with it when comparing with Kaspersky's that damn sound when it detected a virus...It just makes me go crazy trying to blow my ears.

Long Live BIT DEFENDER...!

try youtube.com for phone unlocking and a simple google search on the cables.

I also am a huge fan of NOD32. Non-obtrusive and light on resources. Works perfectly for me. I pair it up with Ad-aware and PC Registry Mechanic and all my PCs run flawlessly.

I just hate being interrupted by software when I'm on my PC thats pretty much why. Also because I am one of those people who consider NOD32 one of the best heh

The best Anti-virus is avast, because it is always updated to fight the latest viruses, it is absolutely free, and has some effective ways to get rid of viruses once and for all.

The strongest anti-virus i have ever seen is the panda anti-virus.

McAfee is a good anti-virus but not as good as avast.

Avast! is simply the best. I've installed the free version on about 8 PCs, 5 of which are mine, and all of them still run flawlessly (aside from the occasional hardware problems which are not related to this).

Nod32 is my prefered choice. I currently use Avast! because there is a lack of Nod32 *ahem* free resources *cough* for x64 computers.

Those two are good, NOD32 is worth the money, though I don't have any to get it. lol

I do a combination of AVG8.0 + Malwarebytes + S&D.

For my whole month of February I had to constantly reformat my comp to find out what caused my HDD to continually get viruses. There were even times when after an hour in by only going to 1 website (another forum that I frequently go to) and BOOM virus. It was not until I found out to do a combo of the three above that everything stopped going crazy.
