I'm more pissed than a one legged man at a hopscotch tourniment.

We just got a new computer (a dell) and it appears to have motherfucking adware on it already, before we even connected it to the internet. We got popups, without ever connecting to the internet, saying that we had spyware on our computer.

When we transferred our DSL connection to the new computer and downloaded spybot S&D as well as Adaware, it still resets our homepage to some MS search page. Every fucking time I reset the homepage, and then close and reopen IExplorer it comes up as this MS search page, not our homepage. I am getting really pissed off at this computer. It was supposed to be better than our old piece of shit, and it has more problems than the other one.

We have a Norton AV as well as spybot and adaware, and it still fucking resets the homepage everytime we log on. This new computer sucks. At least with the old (ancient) E-machine it kept our homepage settings, and I was able to eliminate pop-ups and ads with Spybot and adaware. It's not working with the new computer at all and like I said It seems to have come with popup ads installed on it. I'm going to call those fuckers at Dell tomorrow and give them a bunch of shit about this.

FUCK ADWARE and SPYWARE. Whoever invented it should be drug out in the street and shot!
