With all the junk software they have on their PCs, how do Koreans manage to get anything done?

Point #1: They get it done, but it takes longer than it should without all the junkware.

Point#2: It's Korean junkware; therefore, it's not junk in their eyes.

I'm sitting there waiting for about 5 minutes for one page to load. I can't even open multiple applications. I swear to God I felt like it was 1995 again and I was sitting at my 486.

Is the idea to make the computers secure by making them unusable?

Yeah, I mean, are you using PC bang computers or something? Why can't you go into the control panel and delete parasites and run virus checkers, so on? Rolling Eyes

You may be using a 386. Check it. If so, clean ALL the crap off yourself, and/or use your own computer w somewhatuptodatesoftware, etc. Dont use ie. Thats a hint; an esp good 1 in korea.

Will a 386 even pull up the internet without timing out? Is a 386 even capable of having the software to run the internet? Laughing
