Also, running malwarebytes quick scan like once a week never hurts.

It looks like you had a lot of threats... maybe you should re-run Malwrebytes in Safe Mode.

If you don't know how to do that:
1) Shut Down your computer.
2) Turn your computer back on.
3) Hit F8 every second or so until a menu comes up allowing you to choose to start you computer in safe mode.
4) Run Malwarebytes... it may look different and your desktop background will probably be black... no worries, that's normal.
Ideally you need to run 3 programs to get everything. It's what I do and I haven't had ad/malware problems in years. Malwarebytes is one of them so you need the other two. Go get Spybot 2 and Ad-Aware, run Spybot's cleaner and then -make sure you Immunize-, then restart, then run Ad-Aware, scan, restart. You should not have anything after doing this and the Immunization makes you safe from getting them ever again.

As an added suggestion, I highly recommend getting Adblock and NoScript equivalents for your browser. Adblock will get rid of any ads online (but you can disable it on a specified site, such as swf) and NoScript will block scripts from running until you allow them, but will always allow what you decide to allow. This prevents you from having unwanted things put on your computer without your knowledge.

Lastly I recommend CCleaner for general clutter removal, but it'll take a while to explain so let me know what you want to do. Of all the steps I listed here you only need to get Spybot and AdAware to get rid of your problem- the other tips will prevent you from getting problems like this in the future.
Thanks, both of you. I'll try both these things tomorrow, I'll tell you how it goes.



That was Mewtwo's spot, motherf*cker.
Why do people still think Lucario "replaced" Mewtwo? They share literally one attack--neutral B. I'm holding out hope that Sakurai DOES put Mewtwo in as a playable character again, though.

Lucario > Mewtwo
I'm probably the only one, but back when Brawl was released I was hyped as hell for Lucario. I couldn't contain myself. Although that might have just been my 13 year old self being insane.

That entirely depends on the environment a person is put into, and how much activity they are involved in.

The more you *actually* know
I dunno.... even if you did factor in the environment the person is in, and what he/she is doing, your mostly likely still gonna die of that lack of sleep......... although I dont know why I said thirst, because U can die from that relatively fast.

Well make that two. When Brawl was released, I was pumped as hell for lucario. I was kinda sad about mewtwo not making it, but in the end Lucario hype> Mewtwo sadness.

I don't think he replaced Mewtwo. I just don't care much for Lucario. Especially when that means his aura abilities where he's rewarded for losing are likely returning.

What does "emo" or "edgy" even mean, in this context.
Think of it this way. If you go by those pokemon movies, you have Mewtwo whining about his purpose and getting all "destroy all humans" over it.
I haven't seen any pokemon movies past the 4th one, but wasn't Lucario supposed to be that enigmatic, mysterious pokemon archetype, or did I make that up. Also, the one in Brawl talks. Was that in the movie too? idk. It just seems like they type cast Mewtwo's replacement.

Here's a cool fact for you. DID YOU KNOW a person will die of lack of sleep BEFORE they would die of starvation or thirst?
The more you know guys :D
Lack of sleep actually has no permanent long term complications. After 10 days with no sleep, you could die due to awful reaction times, poor decision making or the hallucinations, but the lack of sleep wouldn't kill you, and once you started sleeping normally again, you'd be back to new eventually.

It kinda says they are coming back anyway. Unless whoever put up the Miiverse had a bad case of typos.

Use malwarebytes. It's free and works better than most programs you have to pay for.


On the sleep talk...lol sleep.
Malwarebytes is amazing - I can't tell you how many times that free program has saved my computer.

So... being "emo" means having a character arc?

I count at least four different words that you're using here in a context that doesn't make any sense.

Angst is a word that refers to feelings of fear or anxiety. A character arc, universally, deals with feelings of fear or anxiety caused by inner turmoil.

The joke in that video isn't "Harry is angsty", it's that what he feels angst about is ridiculous. Learn what words mean before you use them.

Obviously. That's what I meant when I said it was played at a comedic level. You look at Mewtwo and his situation is obviously more serious. I would kinda compare him to Shadow the hedgehog on the "emo" thing, but his situation is far less unintentionally hilarious.

Yeah Lucario in it's movie talked. Also watch as they put Mewtwo in as DLC Kappa.

But seriously I want them to announce Falco and a Fire Emblem Awakening character already.

A well-done alt texture on a fitting character and we're in there. Pretty easy compared to some textures I've seen, IMO. lol

I seriously hope his team colors aren't horrible this time around. Brawl had a weird thing for team colors looking completely ambiguous that was really annoying for anyone with any amount of color-blindness.

In his movie he was a blind warrior who had to team up with Ash to stop the corruption of the tree of life or something like that. Also he dies in the end.

Also also, I agree with better team Colors, because some(like Sonic) were just ugggh.

Lucario > Mewtwo
I'm probably the only one, but back when Brawl was released I was hyped as hell for Lucario. I couldn't contain myself. Although that might have just been my 13 year old self being insane.
I got the first generation of Pokemon when I was seven years old, back in '98. My family had a terrible dialup connection, but I myself didn't really know what the internet was at the time and never used it. So playing Pokemon for the first time was an unknown experience. No spoilers, no hints, no real idea of what I was doing. My first playthrough, I used the Master Ball on Moltres. And eventually I find my way to Cerulean Cave, and after what was probably hours of being lost in the cave I found Mewtwo. That was... just magical. He was killing my Pokemon left and right and it felt like nothing could fight him. Any damage I did was just healed with Recover, and the Ultra Balls I had just weren't cutting it. That feeling of, "OH GOD WHY DID I USE MY MASTER BALL ON MOLTRES!" was just something else. Having to retry like three times before finally catching him... It was just the perfect way to cap off the game.

Fast forward to 2007 with Generation IV... and that magic was just gone, ya know? That's why Lucario can just never in a million years compete with Mewtwo for me.

Nado is ok, you can't really buff it though. His Fair is fine.

So I was looking into getting a cool clear-shell to put the innards of a new white controller into it, but holy crap I really don't want to spend 70+ on just a shell. The blue/green shells are similar priced. Man, I'm going to have to do some serious hunting to find one at a decent price.

On a related note, How would one go about replacing sticks? I know it requires a soldering tool and replacement sticks (i'll probably get some nunchuck sticks in bulk) but thats about it. I have like... 6 controllers now that all work fine except the stick is too loose. Are there any specific threads that are about replacing sticks/re-wiring controllers?

If you're looking for a cool controller shell at a good price I would just suggest painting your own shell if you don't already have a shell you want.
That would probably be the most cost effective way, and you'll get exactly the color(s) you want.
