Well fortunately or unfortunately MTL seems to have taken a back seat these days for new greatest latest things, so I just may have it covered :) LOL

I know I have posted at least three times I am done shopping. Yep absolutely. So today I order some nicquid from NET tobacco and an iCare. I just thought I was done.

Don't worry it is normal, it is part of the Dark Ages of Vape Stock Up Syndrome, we all suffer from DAVSUS! :lol::lol::lol::lol:LOL

    Well while you all were chatting security, I got the green Vari for my collection. Off to sell my hot tub to pay for all this stuff. (in preparation for more Provape sales). I may never catch WillyZee but I am running as fast as I can. :ohmy:

    To surf Internet I use an Alienware Area 51 w 6-core I7 with 32GB of RAM...no such thing as slowing this system down. My toy server development system has 10 cores and 64GB RAM.

    Norton not looking bad here, PcMag.

    I like Kaspersky but would only use it as an AV in VMware hosted client, not my main system. Never trust the Russians for anything, and I mean anything.
    How is PC Mag going to test viruses when they don't have a decent virus colection.

    Any body and their dog can but the virus colection from Hacker called Aristotle sent me his so called virus colection and I found multiple copies of the same virus on the same bait file. The worst offender was the same virus in the colection 14 (yes fourteen times).

    In 1996 when Richard Ford was trying go develop the AV testing protocol for the National Computer Security Association (NCSA) Wolfgang Stiller made the introduction, and Mr. Ford and I hammered out the testing methodology used by the NCSA.

    One of the first things we did was delete duplicates, the next thing we did was kill the false positives that were not viruses at all.

    Then we replicated all of tge virusesy in the colection we could.

    Having 26,000 viruses is not enough.

    You have to get rid of the duplicates, false alarms. Replicate all the viruses you can and the ones you can't replicate because wrong file size. Wrong hard Drive format, wrong operating system or processor send the suspect file to one of THR experts in CARO.

    So what is the best free security program, I have McAfee but will go with something else better. Had Norton years ago. Never used Kaspersky, I have it ready to download But not sure what is really best for average users like me!
    The two best scanners. In the World today are Kaspersky and F-Secure.

    They are so good that a hacker has to re write large portions of the virus. To get around them NO changing two or three bytes to by pass the scanner.

    I wish I understood hacker speak, I am lost when it comes to this stuff.

    It's a work in progress. It's definitely something we want in place to help pay the bills, but at the same time, we don't want to go overboard with it.

    It is definitely better than it was. The little arrow in the box is much less annoying than when the word written was replaced with a text link to Vaping.com ... that just rendered the post unreadable.

    Still looking forward to the Xolo so I use those little links to check for availability.

    :)

    There's another small batch on order from what I understand. Don't know what the holdup is, but hopefully they'll arrive soon.

    More to research. I wonder what they mean by raw extract???
    @Fozzy71 knows more about Real Flavors and their lines, so hopefully he can expound on it more then I can. My understanding of the RE is that they are the flavorings for the VG based ones, before they are mixed with VG, thereby making them far more concentrated. I also think that they are not sweetened where some of the VG ones are.
