I don't know how that would work, unless every whore has a specific pimp who can follow them to the places they hook up.

It's not like bodyguard protection.
I think pimps have turf, and their hookers get to work that turf, and anybody else muscling in gets taken care of. I think they are also extortionists. The protection is from them, as well as other hookers or clients who won't cooperate.

Ok, so I have two of the same exact Acer netbooks (533 I think). One locked/login screen has a blue background and the other has a green background and I don't know why or how to change it. Anyone know what I'm talking about? I want to change the ugly green screen one to blue, but I have no idea how.
Oh, should also say both are using Windows 7 Starter which allows just about no customization, so I really don't know why the login screens would be different when you can't change anything else.

Is searching on google giving weird results when you click the links for anyone else.
No. What kind of weird results?
If it's taking you to weird spammy pages, you have a google redirect virus.

I never stayed on the pages long enough to see them but the urls do look pretty weird. Also the files in my documents aren't showing up. Could this be because of the redirect virus?

I think I know what you're talking about and I don't think it can be changed by normal customization means.
try this... http://www.techspot.com/guides/224-change-logon-screen-windows7/ or search for something similar as I didn't read that link, but I've seen people use stuff like this before.
This is one of the reasons I reinstall windows on laptops as soon as I get them. Can't be dealing with the crap manufacturers put on them.

Can anyone recommend me some decent computer monitors that aren't terribly pricey? As far as size goes, something in the mid to larger range would be great.
My boss is looking at picking up some new ones for work, and we handle video editing.
Thanks for any and all help!

Not really a question but a request: if any of you guys have the Rocky IV-Drago mirror gif (the one where Rocky crushes the Drago picture in the mirror), could you please share it here? (oh, there was a question after all).
The original one, please, not the Kotick/Kaz one. Thanks!

I've been thinking of this the last couple of days and I need someone who can help with me with identifying a movie.
It's a British movie. I think it's somewhere from the late 90's or the early 00's. A guy is spraying graffiti on a wall, the police arrives and the main character notices a female police officer who he finds incredibly beautiful. So he returns to the same place at the same time and do the same thing, so he and the police woman start to get to know each other, and later get married.
The film follows their marriage while it's losing its magic. In the end, she suspects that his husband is planning to kill her.
Saw this movie ages ago, but can't remember much except the beginning and some of the end. I would really like to see how it ends, so I would really appreciate if someone knew what movie this is. Thanks.

How do you do multiple quotes from different users? I end up having to copy each of the ones into a Notepad, remember to put in the QUOTE brackets, etc.
Press the plus button next to "Quote", when you click "post reply", all the quotes will be there for you.
No. Everything's working as well as ever for me. Maybe your computer is having a stroke. Did you try turning it off and then back on again?
I'm not seeing half of the imgur photo's posted either

Mercury retrograde just finished so life goes a bit squirly then. Everything should settle down over the next day or so. If problems persist for you though you might like to do some pc maintenance e.g. malware scan, de-frag, flush your browser cache etc.
Yes or the same but for the last post you wish to quote just hit quote as normal and they will all be in your reply field in the same way.

. Especially because you have such an adorable avatar! 
I have Windows XP,
3GB RAM,
AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5000+
After turning on the computer and getting to the desktop it takes over two minutes to get anything to start/open, browser, start menu etc. It wasn't always like this, it started around a year ago.
Can't even use Steam because freezing and TF2 stutter even with the low settings.
I am using Norton antivirus (28 days remaining) and could that be reason of the slowdowns? Should I just delete it since I have Microsoft Security Essentials and Malwarebyte's anti-malware (free version)?
Are there any free programs I could use to make my PC faster?
Thanks!

So I'm totally fine with just MSE and Malwarebyte's?
You're fine without those, honestly, the main reason people get viruses is because they've downloaded a shady file like an idiot.
I'll delete it and test if it made any difference. Thank you!

I believe Norton can be reluctant to fully remove itself from pcs so don't be shy if you need help in doing that. You are right to remove it though as it is indeed a horrible resource hog, costs you money and is not really necessary for the vast majority of pc users.
Also, for future reference, it is really not a very good idea to run more than one brand of firewall or anti-malware app as they can conflict and cause vulnerabilities in your pc.
MSE is good and free so keep going with that instead of Norton. Malwarebytes is the free version I take it? If so then that's fine to keep too as it won't conflict with MSE and it's good to have another scanner to use periodically for peace of mind that MSE hasn't been compromised in some way.
What firewall are you using?
This might just be me, but has Facebook chat changed? There used to be little green circles indicating if people were online, now everyone has a hollow green ring, and it'll say there's maybe ten people online, but everyone has the little circles. I can't tell who's online and who's not. Any ideas?

What is this emoticon supposed to represent?

It makes me think of that line from Family Guy, "...his chin looks like balls."

I'd like to add everything > furries > bronies
bronies are at the bottom of everything everywhere.
What about sonic fans?
Still better than furries.
Yes it is just a owmen that grows more facial hair than most, probably too much testosterone or something. See here: http://www.ehow.com/about_5052624_causes-facial-hair-women.html

No, a lot of people (most likely everyone) are having issues with it. Use Google with "site:neogaf.com" instead.

Can someone post a link to a video of Homer reading a newspaper and seeing a free trampoline, then getting so excited he can't pronounce it and proceeds to run out? I use to be able to find it on YouTube but for some reason can't get to it.
Can anyone answer this? It's still bugging me...
