we are reading a lot of fake news these days. Did you remember the news about Britney's pregnancy, Lindsay's joining on the famous rich men seeking affairs site sugarcupid.com? Is this news true or not? who knows...

I used spy doctor and "fixed" 139 items but my desktop is hidden behing this maddening image saying I must buy their fix. How can I get rid of the image and get back to my desktop. Can anyone let me know?

every time I run a scan it shuts down half way through. Is it a possible that Titan Shield is causing this to happen?

Why isn't this illegal?

To mark your success by the agony of others is unexcuseable. These idiots are worse than terrorists.

Titan Shield DOES give false positives as to problems with your CPU. It also puts on it warnings language that suggests that it is affiliated with Microsoft. It is a real pain in the backside when you have it. It pops up about every 2 minutes and there is no way to close a window without it redirecting you to their site to buy there spyware.
