Given that, you just delivered another insult to the homeland, you happy now?  | I wouldnt call it another insult  !
But *sigh*, i guess reading the post inflamed me so much to not even look at the poster.
Im sorry Steve, i was in the wrong. Even though my points about America still stand hehe :P | | Senior Member with 434 posts. | | Join Date: Jan 2007 Location: Texas |

To be honest, have you acuttaly lived in the UK? Ever? Or are you just another loud mouth idiot.
I acuttally can't believe i logged on today and saw this, who the hell put this on front page either? Also about the 40+ being aware of this, if i went to your country and asked around. To be honest i bet 60%+ don't even know what a virus/disease is. http://www.hepctrust.org.uk/ http://www.hepc.nhs.uk/ | Actually it looks like you're the loud mouth idiot. | | Senior Member with 434 posts. | | Join Date: Jan 2007 Location: Texas |

#20 | It's time to get this back on track now please and not take away from the importance of the issue.

#22 | I'm NEW here, but what has any of this got to do with solving 'TechGuy' style problems???
Do people take this as an opportunity to rant about anything that 'tweaks their beak'???
Let me know, and I'll unsubscribe of that is the case...
Thanks

#24 | Stevey, you are new here, and you won't be here long if you don't read the TSG Rules.  Profanity is not allowed here.
If you actually looked, you'd see this is the Announcements forum, and not one of the technical forums. If you have a problem, I suggest posting it in the correct forum.

Steve | We help people with all sorts of PC problems... if you post in a forum that is related to the problem you are having. The "Community" forums are for posting about subjects that have little or nothing to do with computer problems. We can help you with ex-wife or car problems there.

#30 | $teve, I lost my brother 6 years ago and he was infected with hepatitis C. That isn't what killed him though. While he was undergoing treatments he started having a hacking cough and chest pains.
You guessed it, lung cancer and even that didn't kill him. He underwent a series of chemo treatments when he wasn't feeling well enough to undergo them. It weakened him and he caught pneumonia. That is what did the big guy in. He was trying to fight three at once, he didn't win.
Thanks $teve, we need to be informed. I have my next check-up in about 5 months. I'll be getting tested.
