I’ve always found AVG slows my system down. I did trials of BullGuard and Avast not sure which I preferred.

I’ve got one running now. I really should invest in a decent full protection suite at somepoint.

[quote Zirbel][quote lowie]In answer to your question question HSBC is an international bank so an international money transfer will be OK.

The IBAN includes all, bank account AND bank identity.[/quote]
Seems you need both

I do the same when I’m feeling crap. I try to get attention. It’s like if I feel like someone cares maybe life is worth living.
I am not saying you are doing this for attention but maybe you know in yourself you don’t want to die. It’s more likely you just need someone that you can talk to. Too often these days people walk around with all their problems bottled up and it’s not healthy. It’s more likely to add to the problem than take it away.
As Zirbel posted there is plenty of info online where you can get advice. There is also quite often confidential helplines you can call. These are great if you don’t want to feel like a burden on your family or friends. They are also good because like here people do it because they want to help. They are, where I’m from anyway, a volunteer work force so they really are doing it because they want to not because they’re getting paid a load of money.
There’s a saying “a problem shared is a problem halved”.

I wouldn’t pay for anything using a bank transfer. If the company doesn’t come through with the goods you could lose your money. I’m not even sure if there could be a banking fraud risk of doing this. Where China is involved I’ve heard of people being conned so I’d be very careful.
To me if I can’t pay for something using my bank card or companies like PayPal or Moneybookers I don’t buy. Better safe than sorry.

2012-06-24 16:20:02 on How do i get sleeping pills from my doctor?
First off buy some decent earplugs to block out your neighbours. What pills did you buy? I’ve used something called valerian root to help me sleep. It’s got a pretty potent smell but it works. You’ll feel sh*t the next day for a couple of hours like a hangover. If your in UK you can buy it from a Holland & Barretts.
As for your doctor well they most likely won’t give you aything herbal (I know in UK they don’t at least they’ve never given me any). They may give you a sedative like amatryptaline (spelling?) which you can only take for so long as I think it may be addictive but I may be thinking of another drug. Register at your local GPs and explain to them your situation and see what they can recommend.

My fear was that bad that my dentist had to sedate me just to do a routine filling. I’m in UK and it was pretty expensive at around £60 (around $90-$100).
Although I found it helped me get over my fear I had, unfortunately, left it too late and I’ve ended up having to get a bunch of teeth out. It was less pain and stress than having my teeth drilled, root treatments etc. So like the others said go see your dentist before you regret it.
Missing teeth aren’t attractive to anyone. Think about that and the painful treatments you’d have to go through if you let any little bits of decay get out of hand.

I’ve made it in microwave… it’s pretty nasty. Your best to gril it as it’s healthier that way. However you choose to cook it no microwave.

[quote Zirbel]No, because we don’t know, where and how and what for and with which program you tried it …[/quote]
This any better???
It’s for downloading stuff. I use the feed address they created. Tried it on Vuze, Demon Feed, Live Bookmarks on Firefox even the one on Windows live email. I’ve got a load of feeds I use already. I just don’t get what’s wrong with that particular one.
[quote Zirbel]The only clear thing is: You did it the wrong way![/quote]
HOW THE HELL WOULD YOU KNOW IF I DID IT WRONG YOU ARROGANT *************. If you can’t help: DON’T POST. And why post twice. Is once not enough for you? The only thing your second post tells me is your rude, ignorant and think your better than everyone else. So if you can’t help DON’T POST AGAIN.

[quote marktay201]The best I can tell you when that happened to me I just had to rest and they gave me muscle relaxers. The more you move the longer it takes to heal. Good Luck hope you get better.[/quote]
Lying down resting I hope, I’m finding sitting hurts like hell as well as walking. I was also given meds to stop muscle spasms (think it’s a muscle relaxant) since thats what caused it in the first place.
Thanks, I hope it gets better soon, it’s already been a week.
2012-05-25 13:50:41 on Please help me !
[quote marktay201]People will understand. I have told my entire company and actually got treated better afterward. They all felt they could then confide in me. Don’t worry it will be alright![/quote]
If only everyone had it that easy then there would be no murders or suicides. Depending on where OP is from it may be a difficult subject to bring up.
2012-05-25 13:30:35 on i dont have much friends online.
I’m the same no real friends and few online ones. Always found I was happier on my own but as my healt declined I realised I needed people around me. Still failing in that regard but I think my up bringing kinda screwed me up. Anyway onto you…
Are there ay clubs or groups or anything like that near you where you can go and meet people. There is a website called meetup.com that can find groups in your local area. They have groups for everything. They may not have what your looking for but it’s a start.

I think matercard and visa have a worldwide thing that you can raise a claim with your bank or credit card company. Even if they don’t I would still call your bank or CC company and raise a fraud transaction claim.
2012-05-19 18:07:25 on This is a yes or no question
NO!!!!! Last thing you need is pyromaniac teens. They’d burn the school down.
2012-05-19 18:05:39 on does anyone know what the lineage is for cousins…like…my
Your cousin’s child would be your cousin once removed.
Your child and you cousin’s child would be second cousins.
I looked it up so I hope they’re correct.
