Read the particular part about AMD being a third-world country company who make inferior knock-off copies of American processor chips.

No if you'll excuse me I have to go clean up this puddle and change my pants because I was laughing way too hard.

In shallowness there is great depth. Either that, or Twain was right when he said that no-one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public.

Your son will probably try to install some hacker software. He may attempt to conceal the presence of the software in some way, but you can usually find any new programs by reading through the programs listed under "Install/Remove Programs" in your control panel. Popular hacker software includes "Comet Cursor", "Bonzi Buddy" and "Flash".
lol

On a side note I've noticed that PCWorld is now calling "crackers" crackers instead of hackers.
On a side side note I just started getting this rag again so it may have been going on for sometime without my knowledge.

I think you should go back to English 101. "prolly" is not a word.

He will probably try to install the software again, but you will be able to tell that this is happening, if your machine offers to "download" one of the hacker applications.

3. Has your child asked for new hardware?

Computer hackers are often limited by conventional computer hardware. They may request "faster" video cards, and larger hard drives, or even more memory. If your son starts requesting these devices, it is possible that he has a legitimate need. You can best ensure that you are buying legal, trustworthy hardware by only buying replacement parts from your computer's manufacturer.

If your son has requested a new "processor" from a company called "AMD", this is genuine cause for alarm. AMD is a third-world based company who make inferior, "knock-off" copies of American processor chips. They use child labor extensively in their third world sweatshops, and they deliberately disable the security features that American processor makers, such as Intel, use to prevent hacking. AMD chips are never sold in stores, and you will most likely be told that you have to order them from internet sites. Do not buy this chip! This is one request that you must refuse your son, if you are to have any hope of raising him well.

BSD, Lunix, Debian and Mandrake are all versions of an illegal hacker operation system, invented by a Soviet computer hacker named Linyos Torovoltos, before the Russians lost the Cold War. It is based on a program called "xenix", which was written by Microsoft for the US government. These programs are used by hackers to break into other people's computer systems to steal credit card numbers. They may also be used to break into people's stereos to steal their music, using the "mp3" program.
