It's a shame you can not force those you love to take better care of themselves but perhaps if you show him enough information about the ill effects and possibly life ending effects he will seek to do something about it. I'm sure you hound him till he does. Good luck, hard to talk a hard head into doing things.

MG...Your brother sounds like he definitely needs to have a sleep study. In case you didn't know, sleep apnea can lead to heart problems and several other health related issues if left untreated. My dad has severe sleep apnea and uses a C-PAP machine at night and states he feels like a new man. Hope you can talk some sense into him and I wish him luck.
I have sleep apnea myself (my cheap bastard insurance company wouldn't pay for treatment though because I was below their cut-off score for paying for treatment). I should save that for the "something pissing you off" thread..LOL.

Ahhh must be nice to have the house to yourself again!
Keeping in contact with a neighbor is a good idea. It would also ease your worries as well, just having the comfort of knowing someone is keeping a eye on him when you can't. :) What could it hurt?

Yeh, Norton is our main Antiviral at work too, and it's not cutting the job. Two computers infected in the last week with what the tech guy calls a very sophisticated hacker.

As much as a pain it is to run it each day, I sure as hell will, and will probably upgrade to it's finer system affects and dump Norton next renewal.

I run heavy security on my computer, and I was shocked at the amount of Malware it found on my PC. It was with an initial quick scan up to 1,450 infected files and when I ran the deep scan it came up with 93 more infected files. Almost all of this crap came from my daughter loading MyWebSearch to the choice of web browsers. DO NOT Download "My Websearch" It will slow your system down to a snails pace! The program I downloaded was called "Malwarebytes" You can get it at Malwarebytes.org. It's an excellent cleaner of garbage off your system. I'm shocked how much better my PC is running now! I in general, don't recommend software to anyone, but I was impressed with what this program did for my computer, so I thought I would pass it along! |

Oh, holy shit, my computer was running a bit on the tired side so I took advise from our Tech man we hire out at work and installed an initially free program to comb thorough my computer. I would recommend you shut down security running on your computer or otherwise when it reaches the fire wall it quits responding. BUT MY FRIENDS! I run heavy security on my computer, and I was shocked at the amount of Malware it found on my PC. It was with an initial quick scan up to 1,450 infected files and when I ran the deep scan it came up with 93 more infected files. Almost all of this crap came from my daughter loading MyWebSearch to the choice of web browsers. DO NOT Download "My Websearch" It will slow your system down to a snails pace! The program I downloaded was called "Malwarebytes" You can get it at Malwarebytes.org. It's an excellent cleaner of garbage off your system. I'm shocked how much better my PC is running now! I in general, don't recommend software to anyone, but I was impressed with what this program did for my computer, so I thought I would pass it along! |

Yeh, Norton is our main Antiviral at work too, and it's not cutting the job. Two computers infected in the last week with what the tech guy calls a very sophisticated hacker. It's all made to look like an antiviral system has taken over your computer and tells you how infected you are and then, you download it, it cost's money and you just lost your identity! As much as a pain it is to run it each day, I sure as hell will, and will probably upgrade to it's finer system affects and dump Norton next renewal.

That's pretty rude that they use your computer during your breaks! I'd be well pissed off at that!

I steer clear of Yahoo.com because that is where all of those viruses came from. My computer, other people sit at while I'm on breaks etc. I always erase my browsing history before they sit down at my desk. All these people do is answer the phone and surf the internet, and they got me that nasty virus by using Yahoo. and looking in the Love Pages! Thanks! Idiots! Put me a day behind in my work because you wanted to know your horoscope and what kind of man is good for you. I GOT the answer NONE! Damnit! I hate that they are even allowed to use my computer! I'm gone for two fifteen minute breaks and a 30 minute lunch, they need to stay the hell off my computer!

That sounds like the virus thing I got on my old computer! It pretended to be an antivirus thing. Luckily I realised I had never downloaded it, so got on to it quick smart. Horrible bloody viruses

Yeh, Norton is our main Antiviral at work too, and it's not cutting the job. Two computers infected in the last week with what the tech guy calls a very sophisticated hacker. It's all made to look like an antiviral system has taken over your computer and tells you how infected you are and then, you download it, it cost's money and you just lost your identity! As much as a pain it is to run it each day, I sure as hell will, and will probably upgrade to it's finer system affects and dump Norton next renewal. Piece of crap, if it can't sort out that much garbage on my system then it needs to go! BASTARDS!!! I'm sick of them!

Yeah Norton is a pain cos all that random stuff still manages to get through! I got a super nasty bug on my old computer (wouldn't let me access anti virus websites or anything) and a friend sent me a copy of malwarebytes and bingo, infection gone. Norton did nothing.

Oh, holy shit, my computer was running a bit on the tired side so I took advise from our Tech man we hire out at work and installed an initially free program to comb thorough my computer. I would recommend you shut down security running on your computer or otherwise when it reaches the fire wall it quits responding. BUT MY FRIENDS! I run heavy security on my computer, and I was shocked at the amount of Malware it found on my PC. It was with an initial quick scan up to 1,450 infected files and when I ran the deep scan it came up with 93 more infected files. Almost all of this crap came from my daughter loading MyWebSearch to the choice of web browsers. DO NOT Download "My Websearch" It will slow your system down to a snails pace! The program I downloaded was called "Malwarebytes" You can get it at Malwarebytes.org. It's an excellent cleaner of garbage off your system. I'm shocked how much better my PC is running now! I in general, don't recommend software to anyone, but I was impressed with what this program did for my computer, so I thought I would pass it along! |
