Defender

[AliceZ]

I downloaded the new update for Defender and before I ran the scan I happened
to look in the history and saw the following.
#1- Is it anything to worry about?
#2- What should I do?
#3- Clear History?

I am so new to Vista and all it's controls, etc. Possibly it is a program I
allowed to download during my operation of the computer and wanted to
download a program such as AVG 8, that asked for my permission to download,
etc.?

Apparently YOU permitted Vista to download and/or install something it
didn't know, which sort of defeats the purpose of Defender since it is
suppose to be some crude malware blocker/firewall defense. If that's
what you did, and it was a virus, worm or trojan, likely whatever
damage it could do was already done. If you have a anti-virus, malware
program run it and see what it says. Chances are it is nothing to
worry about... but you never know.

This bozo is a mental case. He spends his entire day here screaming
obscenities and lying. Ringmaster is simply filth. One of the most vulgar
posters you'll ever have the misfortune of coming across. He wallows
in filth. Ringmaster is also a pathological liar. He lies about everything
and everybody as Google quickly confirms. This simpleton still hasn't
figured out the more he acts up the more I beat him up. What an idiot!

Ringmaster's favorite activity is groveling after Frank, Spanky, measekite,
and Yanaire. That's because Ringmaster is an accomplished dick licker
and he made himself high priest of this newsgroup where he tries to make
everyone bow down and worship Microsoft. I told you this guy is crackers.

Ringmaster is insecure and loony. This ****tard thinks he can get away
with attacking other posters. Then I came along and cleaned his clock.
He didn't like it. Not at all. So crazy Ringmaster did what he does best,
increase the amount of filth he posts. That only resulted in me
exposing him as the crackpot, fool and village idiot he is.

Ringmaster is just some worthless pissant that pisses his life away
spending all his time in this and other newsgroups howling like a wolf
seeing the moon. The more Ringmaster gets exposed as the jackass he is the
more likely he is to bluster and increase his vulgar comments.

Ringmaster has one rule, if you approve of Linux he'll parrot whatever
you say. Speak negatively about Ubuntu, report a problem you had or
find faults with it and Ringmaster will have one of his infamous hissy fits
where he'll call you a ****wit, a cock sucker, a child molester,
thief,****tard, whatever foul thought pops into his head.

Ringmaster is SICK. Understand that and you understand Ringmaster.
Ringmaster isn't
at the bottom rung of society, he's hundreds of feet lower. No lie, no
vulgarity is too low for Ringmaster to use. This moron will naturally try
to deny all I said. Trouble is Ringmaster can't delete what's stored at
Google's Archives for all to see.

Ringmaster is scum. His posting record confirms it beyond all doubt.
