Dec-01-08  Travis Bickle: Hey WannaBe can you list a few more categories? Such as most hated, most ignored, and most radical ala The Black Panthers, and John Lennon early 1970's? I think I have a shot at one of these fine awards. Your pal,

  jessicafischerqueen: Thanks for the INVABULABLE Puter info, as usual <MannBee>.

I have indeed gotten a stronger AVG and a wicked good spy sweeper.

Several Trojan Hippos and a bunch of <Malware> was RIGHT IN MY REGISTRY KEYS!!

(they got kiled by my new equipment.)

I watch tons of movies, tv shows on free-link sites so that's where the evil junk comes from.

But I've been running my sweeps overnight while I sleep so I start fresh with a clean machine in the morning.

I swear Jess it wasn't me! "...and a bunch of <Mal>ware was..." ~lol~

I've often wondered if the Caissar yearly awards could host a breakdown in various categories.

For example:

Best Historian: Golden Age (1800's) - Modern Age (1900 +) - Computer Age

Best Analysis/Analysts (all incorporating + computer and sans computer): GM games - Tournament games - CC games - Offhand games - Puzzles (all types includes game position combos as well).

Best Story Teller: Fiction - Non-Fiction - Original - Anecdotes

Most Helpful: Overall - Odds & Ends - Specific

There seems to be plenty of room everywhere for many more! :) Anyway, wasn't trying to change the system midstream just some 'food for thought' for next time. ;)

Thanks to Jess and Niels for their kind nominations... :) Also to <WannaBe> for once again hosting the yearly Caissar awards. :^) - Mal
