lol kev you're still going on about the matrix? it's just a film. and sam's right, kazaa is full of malware. if your computer's acting weird, just run a virus scan and stop downloading dodgy mp3s. anyway, quake all weekend for me, anyone up for some dm?

ok ok i hear you all on the malware thing. but you're all missing the bigger picture. the matrix is literally on every screen and billboard. that's not a coincidence. and siliconsam, my webcam light flickers when i'm not even using it. that's not a virus. that's... something else. anyone else had their pc do something on its own?

Kev, love, you're still going on about your webcam? Smile Just unplug the thing if it's bothering you! It's probably just a loose connection or a dodgy driver. No need to see patterns in everything. A nice cuppa and a good film is what you need, not more conspiracy theories! xx

Be nice, people.
Tea solves most things.

ConspiracyKev you're taking the matrix thing a bit far lol. the ads are just targeted from cookies, not some big brother thing. though i admit the webcam light thing is weird, my old webcam used to do that too. probably just a driver issue or something. anyway has anyone tried the new Flash MX 2004 beta? just got it working on my site.

ConspiracyKev, your webcam light is almost certainly a driver issue. Some cheap webcams do that. Unplug it, reinstall the drivers from the manufacturer's site, not Windows Update.

And the XP ads are just ads. The smiley is a logo, not a spy.

1. MetalHead84, direct downloads are safer. Agreed.
2. DarkAngel, driver hell is real. A GeForce 2 MX would work.

Read the FAQ before asking. Seriously.

auntiem its not just a loose connection, the light flickers when i'm not even in the room. and siliconsam you say driver issue but it started right after i downloaded that matrix screensaver. pixel pusher you think the ads are just cookies? maybe but why do they always show up after i talk about certain things. anyone else had this happen?

ConspiracyKev, you're really going down the rabbit hole with this. The webcam light is probably just a hardware fault, like Sam said. And the ads are just targeted from cookies, it's not some big brother thing. Though I admit the timing can be creepy sometimes. Anyway, has anyone tried the new Flash MX 2004 beta? Just got it working on my site.
