anyone use zonealarm for anti virus and firewall?

My laptop is on its last legs; bought in 2007. I don't want to renew a paid for anti-virus and firewall for a piece of junk hence the freebie approch. Is it any good? I guess it is hard to say if security is good or not since lack of problem may or may not be due to the security. Kind of like anti-shark repellant.

Avast! is the answer you seek. Free and awesome. What's wrong with Windows Firewall?

At least you blocked her face out. She should appreciate that. I'm so happy for you, that you have a female friend to cycle with too. It is nice to share the sport with a female is it not? Of course, white bikes are still for girls.

Thanks. But soloist, you are a racer no? riding with a newbie must be a bit difficult. For me, I'm not much faster and she was a total beginner and my lack of fitness matched her lack of confidence so we were sort of similar speed.

Solo, there was a time when wearing tight-fitting, synthetic fiber and leg-shaving were for girls too.

At least 'Fair enough' and 'I'm not gonna lie' have been retired.

Also annoying: People who begin sentences with 'Look' or 'Listen', and/or who finish sentences with 'You know what I mean?' I like to confuse them by stopping them and saying, 'No, I do not know what you mean.'

This. I also ride heavy slow mountain bikes when I ride with her so I can still get a workout. Then the time we rode a tandem was really good. It was a great workout, when she took her feet off the pedals it was really tough. She rides a Trek hybrid now, so when I give her the Ruby she should be faster anyway. I usually save my rides with her for recovery days anyway, so it's actually helpful, because I have a hard time taking it easy by myself.

Listen, I'm not going to lie, telling Addiction your annoyances is kind of asking for it. You know what I mean?

I never claimed to be original.

What really bothers me is the word "like". Seems like every teenage girl / early 20's use that word "like" at least five times in every sentence. You know like, when I went to the mall like, that guy like, looked at me like, 20 times. He is such an old pervert, like, ya know, pcad.
