I think I uninstalled it for the 20th time in my life today!

Are there any pieces of software that you hate?

StumbleUpon's toolbar won't work in my Firefox anymore. I cannot figure out why! I've tried everything suggested in Help forums! Bah! :argh:

My StumbleUpon toolbar works perfectly, Clo. What the hell's your problem? :p

Now, I hate those Anti-Virus programs that try to install itself on your computer automatically when you accidentally stumble into one. It's so annoying that it pretends to open up your My Computer window and starts searching for Spyware on your Hard drive right away on your browser. But it's been awhile since I've encountered one!

Yeah those stupid browser AV bots that are usually spyware/malware themselves. And they always pop up a warning saying click OK to go to their website or Cancel to let the browser version continue, or some crap. I always end up with the ones where I have to basically END the browser with Task Manager to make sure I get out of it properly

I hate the Yahoo toolbar too! D:< It is the bane of my existence! I don't know what program I downloaded that I accidentally didn't deselect the option to put the toolbar up buuuut....

It particularly drives in INSANE when I get on my parents computer to fix stuff and I open a browser and it goes, "1124595989 TOOLBARS!!!!!!"

Yahoo Toolbar was created by Jesus. You can kill it, but it'll just come back three days later.

I've been good at avoiding the Yahoo! Toolbar recently. Toolbars are so sneaky!

It's easy to overlook the "Customize" option when the button isn't visible. If you're only half paying attention going "yeah. yeah okay. go." then it'll sneak up on you!

I have exactly six toolbars, and I hate them all to no end. :(

Don't have that problem, because I actually know what I'm clicking on.

If I didn't know what I was clicking on I would've uninstalled yahoo toolbar 200 times by now. Sometimes you just click too fast through an installation process, and go "oh crap, that said yahoo toolbar didn't it?" :p

Every single toolbar out there, including Yahoo! Toolbar. At least Y!'s one is easy to spot and then uninstall. It's the ones that are named something completely different which bug me. Also, anything that changes the search setup from what I chose it to be at the start. I don't want it to be Google. I don't want it to Bing. I don't want it to be anything powered by either but under a different name. Stop changing my url-bar based search thing!

Everything else is okay. It's just toolbars. Toolbars are freaking evil. Luckily my toolbars / autosearch haven't been troubled in the past month or two now. Personally, I like Yahoo! as my autosearch but I don't want the toolbar that often gets installed at the same time. Making it tricky to get my setup the way I like it.

I don't like Chrome and I don't like most toolbars. Such as the yahoo and msn ones. I do however use the AVG toolbar.

My Sims 3 keeps on having bugs so I reinstall over and over. Recently, the bug is I cannot interact with other Sims at all, now I can't have sex with my lovely cyberbeau. :(

It's trying to make me wear some spaiglasses! Itch on your crotch? Don't fear, spaiwear is hair!

So I was trying to sign up on web aim so that I can talk to a girl I don't talk and haven't talked to in years because I can't have aim at work! Wait I think my office IM system allows aim I forget but still let's rant about this some moar. So I was liek, hay Angie ASL??? But she got mad at me because she says I have liek a naked Link (from Zelda) as my avatar. Well SORRY if I like my elves to be muscular and naked sheesh.

So I was sad and tried to change my avatar so I go hay web aim let's make a new avatar so I can chat with gurls and get their asl??? (69/F/UK btw!!!!) So web aim was like SURE pal here check these stupid looking avatars out so I pick the picture of a guy with a grimace liek he's wearing crotch guard with extra spaiwere(wolf) powers....and I notice...oh yes I noticed it. It was so noticeable you'd think a stupid hollywood hack wrote the story and made a sequel because he wanted money to pay for his porn addiction to apples! YES IT WAS THERE. NO I'M NOT INSANE. ASIAN PRIDE

IT WANTED ME TO INSTALL THAT VIEWPOINT MEDIA PLAYER AGAIN! I escaped from the horror of vmp THREE years ago! It found me! It found I was wearing gold bond medicated body powder so that it won't itch when my crotch gets sweaty wait I mean hey what's that over there /runs away

So like now I can't get my naked Link picture out of my aim. Aim it in the toilet and off it goes! Last night I had a dream that I beat up people in high school using world of warcraft special attacks pew pew I'm a zoo!

Help spyware gurus what do I does! Is I doomed to always have a naked, very muscular link as my avatar? Help! I don't want homoerotic stuff but why do i always find myself around it??? (http://forums.eyesonff.com/general-chat/111905-viewpoint-media-player-strikes-again.html)
