Microsoft's AntiSpyware
First some of my programs won’t work just because of the fact Microsoft’s AntiSpyware was blocking them.
Secondly anything I install even a small program, it requires a permission.Antispyware takes too much time to load on Startup.
Lastly, when you try to shut it, you just can’t, for a moment it goes but after that you see it again in the sidebar.After all this I thought of getting rid of it and uninstalled it.As you all know it is still in the Beta stage, could be because of that – what say ???
As far as my rating goes after using it for almost an year I give it 5.5/10.
But, I have learnt one thing from this experience, that you should not install any program in the beta stage especially on your PC.
Any suggestions on which AntiSpyware should I use, or not use at all.Anyways if you have any opinion comment, even if you don’t feel free to comment.

~ 26 Ways To Kill Time ~
Occasionally, when you are not dealing with lack of time, you are dealing with an excess of time. While rare, it can happen. So, enclosed below, are twenty-six ways to kill time.
1.Organize. It never hurts to prepare for dealing with the lack of time.
2.Work. It never hurts to get money to spend for the next time time is plenty!
3.Clean dryer lint filter. This may be why you have soggy towels.
4.Buy postal stamps. Every time I need a stamp, I just thank myself for stocking up on them when I was killing time.
5.Spend a day pushing buttons in an elevator.
6.Write a Guide article. New field reporters accepted daily!
7.Stock up on weather forecasts. Instead of wasting a few hours looking for a weather forecast, why not stock up on them? They usually last for 3-5 days, if kept refrigerated.
8.Wax your automobile, if you have one. Preventative maintenance.
9.Clean your GuideNET Terminal. Preventative maintenance.
10.Remove arachnid webs from dwelling. They are known to annoy even the most unsanitary hitchhiker.
11.Grease your lunchbox hinges. Squeaky hinges ruin appetites.
12.Clean your air conditioner filter, if you have one. Allergies go bye-bye.
13.Learn CPR. You never know when your ticker will tick out.
14.Learn the Heimlich Maneuver. You never know when you'll bite your last bite.
15.Learn First Aid. You never know when you'll get a fatal injury.
16.Get a GuideNET Update. Preventative maintenance.
17.Ride the bus. Also good for killing money.
18.Give blood. H+ is in demand.
19.Cuddle your cat. Cats have feelings, too.
20.Shoot your clock. That will definitly kill time.
21.Empty your rain gauge. Mine accumulated 4,000 centimeters one time.
22.Watch television. Educational programs spawn more and more time, though.
23.Read a book. You could actually LEARN something.
24.Dip into public baths. Look for signs that say "Swimming Pool". (Note: some hitchhikers should pay special attention to this suggestion.)
25.Observe vehicles traverse by. Watch out for city lawn mowers.
26.Organize your lint collection.
**WARNING* Do NOT attempt to unplug an atomic clock! *WARNING**

Now that is why e-bay claims to be the best website for selling products.

How to be LAZY !
1. Never do anything. If you wait around long enough, someone else will do it.
2. Don't move. Moving is overrated.
3. Never run. Running is the worst thing you can do. I had to run once.. big mistake.
4. If something is not in your reach, you don't need it. Before you get up to get something across the room next time, think. Do you really want to get up and walk all the way there and all the way back to get it? Yeah, I know. I felt stupid for moving all those times.
5. Don't have an opinion. Opinions are thoughts, and thoughts are work.
6. Don't work. Working is for suckers. Be a CEO if you can, they never do anything.
7. If you have to move, fuss about it. Make it well known that you're pissed off because you have to move. Sigh a lot. Drag your feet and arch your back at 60 degrees (bad posture helps you to conform to the shapes of couches when you sit down, and it makes you look tired).
8. Sleep as much as you can. Contrary to common sense and popular belief, sleeping is very productive.
9. Don't talk. Talking requires the movement of your jaw.. way too much work.
10. If you have to work, do a half-assed job at it. Example: If you have to rake leaves, push them out into the road or into your neighbor's yard. If you have a riding lawn mower, run over them a few times until the pieces are small enough to hide in between blades of grass.
Thats All Folks,
