Laptop under $500.00 and spyware still sucks

Are you believing a new laptop for under $500.00? Check it out at Walmart.com. Beware. Evil children reside in the aisles. Interesting that this device is running Linux, oops meant Lindows, uh , uh, no it's Linspire - that's the ticket. This does include a Microsoft Office file-compatible office suite. First they pressure the music mobsters to come down in price on CDs and now a Linux based laptop for this price? What gives? Next thing you know they'll throw out the evil children and their evil parents for not having manners! Sheesh, never thought I'd be a big Whalemart supporter. Status is; watching.

On my bench there sits a record breaking PC. It's a P4 Hewlett Packard XP Home machine that has survived a spyware infection of 3701 instances. Yes, that's right, 3701. 106 Trojan horses and virii were also removed. The home page was hijacked in a major way. This is absolutely mind boggling. Wish I could get my hands on the horses' asses that write this garbage and literally kick their butts around a small island before throwing them into a live volcano. Homesearch is part of the horrible filthy coolwwwsearch BS. These jerks pose as spyware removers, but they are actually generating the spyware!! They also hijack your homepage. What foolish weak people are these that plague the innocent with such garbage. Do you have any idea as to how hard it is to remove malware? Take a look at this super site -> Silentrunners.
