Topic Change… (original topic was kinda dumb)

so I’ve finally turned off GF’s notifications yesterday, but guess what…

hey Avast, if you’d like a good suggestion, don’t include crappy add-ware with your updates.

I still would like to know what exactly GF is reporting as “grime” as I use alot of free boot-time programs for:

  • chat (Chatango Notifier, Skype)
  • syncing data (BT Sync, Nitrous Desktop, G+ Auto Backup)
  • development (Git Extensions, Tortise SVN)
  • virtual desktops and environments (Virtua Win, SharpEnviro, Nvidia NView Desktop Manager)
  • Security (other than Avast) (Comodo Firewall)
  • Drivers (TB Riviera Control Panel, Nvidia Xtreme Tuner HD)
    and many more… (can’t recall EVERYTHING atm)

I also have alot of system settings that aren’t exactly used…

if I could change those to get this GF Junk Ware to shut up, I will,
but I want to know what because I may be able to get my compy running a little faster with more organized startups.

it’s a shame some people just have to be selfish jerks and keep all the valuable information and knowledge to themselves.

Avast devs, please remove GrimeFighter… all it will ever be is a pack of trash, as well as a problem causer to you guys.
