    • I’ve been using Panda on my Win8.1 machine for nearly 3 years, and am very happy with it. Never a problem. It seems to be unaffected by the April patches, so I will wait probably no more than one more week and then install the security-only April update. Meanwhile, been having fun running and learning my new Mint 19.1 on the old (wiped) Win7 machine. It has no AV program ;^)

    • in reply to: Windows 10 nag for Windows 7 makes an appearance #344896

      All of the above just more reasons why my Win 7 MSI laptop is soon to become a Linux Mint 19.1 machine. My Acer Aspire Win8.1 will continue to do the heavy lifting.

      How do they not think this through? Seems so mindless, blindsighted.

    • in reply to: Tell me the truth – Which is better, Chrome or Firefox? #328693

      I use both DuckDuckGo and Startpage more recently. I believe I’m finding the results from Startpage to be a little better of the 2, i.e. more on target, relevant. On Firefox 80-90% of the time, though I like using Opera also.

      It is because of AskWoody that I became aware of ghacks and Martin some years ago. I find it nearly as indispensable as this place. Nice reciprocity!

    • Well, okay then. I have had a wordpress account with an account pic, but I signed up with them using a hotmail addy, I have never merged or authorized the actual gravatar site to use that anywhere though. I don’t think I want to do that.  I joined AskWoody using my gmail.  I do have a gmail avatar picture though so maybe it will show up. Guess we will see.

    • Thank you! It is done, I am anonymous no more. Though I may still lurk. Now, how do I upload a profile picture/avatar?

    • in reply to: Can Google+ seriously challenge Facebook? #1289589

      I just got an invite today and have joined. I don’t know how much I’ll end up using it, but one thing I really like is the ease with which you can upload photos, both from pc and my phone(with the free Google+ app). I’ve never had a facebook page or any other major social networking site, so it’s all new to me.
