      I think you missed the reference. They weren’t referring to children as a lack of familiarity with OS functions, they were referring to children as an ignorance of programs you should ever or never install. If you have mcfee on your computer, TODAY, you should just set your computer out on the curb and never touch an electronic device again.

        Until I read the original comment, I didn’t know that was the symbol for McAfee.

        Since windows 7, with defender, there’s not even a use for a third party anti virus for the majority of users.

        This must have come pre installed with the system. Nobody installs McAfee of their own volition, right?

          A lot of systems come with McAfee on them. Especially all the shit you can buy on Amazon from the “vendor stores”.

        You don’t want to remove GoG completely, but I’ll be damned if I let it just start on every reboot.

      And then, when the program next updates, it silently re-enables its “startup with the computer” option, because fuck you. Of course, it updates every day, just to ensure you never “accidentally” disable it’s automatic startup!
