Okay so my laptop is an Acer Aspire 3660 and all going good until 2 hours ago my keyboard and mouse pad/touchpad keep freezing every couple of seconds for a few seconds. It's really annoying. I've tried scanning my laptop with Malwarebytes and came up with 3 infections all the same which is "Disabled.SecurityCentre" under the category "Registry data". I've tried System restore also and now i don't know what else to try. I don't use a plugin mouse either. Its done this before but only lasted like 10 minutes. this time it won't go away and it's really hard to type because the keyboard won't read all the keys unless i press them twice plus my mouse freezes(As I stated above.) Can anyone tell me how to fix this problem? (link)
OK so when my computer starts messing up i totally just do everything i possibly can lol. k so lets try a few things.

-your computer may be freezing because it cant handle all of the things you are running at once or stored in your memory, so i would recommend downloading ccleaners from www.filehippo.com
-run the cleaner
-run the registry cleaner
-then go to tools
-go to uninstall and uninstall what you can spare
-go to start up (these are all the programs that start when you turn on your computer which ultimately slows the process down so...) Disable all the unnecessary ones that you have notices popping up, you can disable all of them if you want but i noticed on my list my audio device is listed so i left that one bcuz it controls my sound.
Restart see what happens
TRY THAT.
Doesnt work?

- You may need to update your drivers, i have found two websites that seemingly have all the drivers ready to download for your Acer Aspire 3660, i cant be the one to test them because i have an ibm thinkpad =) so here they are

Official ACER website:
http://support.acer-euro.com/drivers/notebook/as_3660.html

Some other site i found it looks more simple though:
http://www.laptop-software.com/acer-software/acer-aspire-3660-windows-xp-drivers/

NOW, you mentioned you have already installed malwarebytes, try starting your computer in safe mode (by pressing usually F8 during boot up when the black screen comes up before the windows logo)and then running malwarebytes again. safe mode boots up your computer only. like... if you had a virus it wouldnt automatically start in safe mode. So if you had a virus that was hiding something bad in your computer everytime you ran Malwarebytes-- in safe mode the virus wont be awake so it cant shield itself. try all these things i absolutely hope it helps! =)


ok so ive had this freind since freshman year lets call her L. L got a crush on a guy (calling him B) during that year. Its been two years and she still likes him. so i got this new friend whose a freshman (calling her D) so D was talking to B on facebook last night and asked if he had a date to the dance and she said she would have asked B to the dance if it weren't for someone else and B said i might have said yes. and now D is starting to fall for B. problem is L was gonna ask B to the same dance. They both really like
B so i do not know what to do. Should i tell D to back off of B or do i warn L to step her game up. i feel like i don't want to tell L this because this might crush her but i know if something happens between B and D it will hurt even worse and D is just a young girl and i don't want her to get hurt please help (link)
Ok honestly i wouldnt say anything, You said L has had a crush on this boy for 2 years....and she hasnt made a move yet? Sorry L but D has only been around for a little bit and shes already going for B...it just shows you snooze you lose. If this does get out to either girls you need to let them know that neither of them can help the way they feel. I hate that rule where u cant go out with the guy because ur friend like him but they are too shy to say anything haha...that sucks big time. sooo try to keep your mouth closed but when it comes down to it you need to let D know that L might be a little upset with her and let L know that you know she is sad but she has had 2 years to get a chance. And in order to have a chance you have to take one. I would suggest to L that she still has a chance before D takes him for good :) Good Luck hun!


What is masterbation? And how do i do it? (link)
Boy That is a very awkward question my dear. To Masturbate is to stimulate genitals in order to acheive sexual pleasure. I dont know if you are male or female but both genders have several different ways the most obvious ways would probably be fingers-in hole for female and stroking the penis for male. When i was younger in order to learn about these things i would watch this little old lady Sue Johnson on her show "talk sex", at first it was entertaining and it might take you a while to get over her but it is very educational. Good Luck! :)


I don't know what to do with him! I found out from my bff that my bf made a facebook group thing about our relationshp. I went and red a few things on it and it is personal and nothing anybody should know but us so I told him I knew he had a secret he was keeping from me but not what it was so he would tell me or something but he didn't. i kinda thought that he posted stuff and didn't think it was bad and I wanted to give him chances to say so but he just said he didnt have no secrets so i went back to read the rest and he had made it private only so now it is hidden from me.

I guess what I am asking is if he didn't think this was wrong why did he hide it when i found out? He still denies everything and now i got no proof because i cant see it anymore!!! i have been crying about this and i feel betrayed like he has a secret life on facebook or something! should i stay with him if he isn't going to be honest and still hides things?

Sorry if this is too long! (link)
Not long at all hun! :) Ok so i know you are upset that you can no longer read the facebook page now and i would be too :) because believe me i am all for that crap im ALWAYS in my babys stuff haha,However If i find something i dont like it is usually not that big. Facebook is not a very private site as you must know all people have to do is Like him and they get notifications like everytime he posts something new. This is not something you want. You are kind of only left with one choice, Let him know that you know. Its not always bad telling somebody you know about their secret. You make it good or you make it bad. What i mean by this is, If you say " Hey you terrible boyfriend i know your secret and you lied i hate you!"...then you have just made it bad for him. If you are this angry with him by all means handle it that way. But usually when i have an argument with my boyfriend about anything all i want to do is make my point so that he sees it how i am seeing it and changes what he is doing wrong. So calmly bring it up and just be like " Ok sooo i know about the crap on facebook but before you say anything i just want to let you know that i truley am upset with you but right now i just need you to know that i love our relationship and things like that are not allowed because they can ruin it." Mention however you would like that you dont feel comfortable with your business out there like that and that all those posts need to come down. Another thing you could possibly do is tell him " you have 24 hours to make that page readable, if you need to delete some shit that you posted then do it NOW bcuz im comin in!" haha, i uaually tell my boyfriend that one...ill let him know if he knows i wont approve then dont do it! its more trouble to hide things then to reveal them. You ever think about how easy it is to hear a rumor, but to cover it up it takes so much energy! :) I wish you the best of luck with your boyfriend and hope that my messy help is understandable. Let me know if you need anything else and Take care sweety!

i need a virus free site that wont give my virus a phone but will work for straight talk ? im under a 'verizon wireless' tower for straight talk, but everytime i get the 'password' sent to my phone, it says verizon blocked premium messaging (link)
Yea Myxer is totally good you can upload songs that you already have on your computer, choose what part of the song and how long you ringtone will be and then send the download like right to your phone :) but you need internet, it doesnt sent you the ringtone itself it sends the link that you click on to bring your browser up to the webpage, then you click download and store it to your phone.

Im not sure about the verizon blocking premium messaging...if you have straight talk why are you on Verizons tower all the time?...like arent there times where you can do it when you are not roaming? I know verizon tries to block Premium messages for their customers if they are not subscribed to recieve them and maybe you just look like somebody who has not subscribed to them...i would tell you to call verizon if you were on their service but you are just roaming i feel like you should really find a tower near you thats of straight talk. Good Luck hun!


I'm starting college this year and I'm really starting to get annoyed with trying to find clothes that flatter my body. The problem is that I'm sort of flat chested. Not completely flat, but I'm 5'7'' and I weigh about 135lbs. Most girls that are my size have boobs, and most girls that are flat are like stick thin, so it's really hard to find clothes that look good because I feel like all clothes are made for women who have at least a little something on top. If this helps, I like to dress comfortably, and I wear skinny jeans a lot. What kinds of tops or outfits would flatter my body? I have no idea how to dress for my figure. Any ideas are appreciated. Thank you! (link)
Ok sooo first off that off the shoulder top from the answerer before is awesome kudos to that :) what im going to tell you about isnt really answering you question but i was in bonton like two months ago and saw these bras from the "Maidenform Like Magic" collection and they add two cup sizes to your normal boobs, I showed my father and he was like "wow... how deceiving! im glad i got my woman early bcuz u never know what your gonna get these days" the bra is like a regular bra padded all the way to the rim. Its a new type of push up bra i guess but they look very nice and you might want to look into it :) http://www.beso.com/maidenform/womens-bras/maidenform-like-magic-extreme-push-up-bra/1972965965/detail

Good Luck!


I've been called a "whore" around my neighborhood and I know some people who think "oh she gets around". But I don't act that way... People who don't know me think I'm all innocent.
I'm 15 and I've had sex with 5 people(and multiple times), given oral to 6 or 7 including those 5, and I lost my virginity when I was 14.
At this point I'm having sex with my boyfriend a few times a week.
Is this bad? .. Like, have I done too much for my age? What do you think..? (link)
Be careful babes because its not always a bad thing but its never a good one...you understand? it doesnt matter when you lost your virginity its who you lost it to, same with all the other times you had sex. were these your boyfriends at the time? if so its rather OK, however it becomes a problem when it is not your boyfriend whether he is somebody elses boyfriend or single. Boys should have to prove their worthiness to you. You are this beautiful young girl sexy spunky attitude! you need a man that fits this girl described! not just any man who didnt even win your heart. Set your standards high now before its too late. Stay with your boyfriend and continue to do what you please. Also girls have a double standard---psht more like a quadruple standard when it comes to how many people you have sex with, guys think its cool when they have sex with many different girls but when it comes down to the girls they sleep with less is better. You are 15 and should have a feeling what love is when you have that feeling go for it, dont listen to your parents telling you that you dont know because nobody knows what you feel but you. Hun you need to put yourself higher on the pedestal make it hard for those wack ass boys :) you want someone who does the same, he watches who he goes out with, likes a girl with class. Dont think you are lucky because some boy thinks your sexy and bangable---make sure hes the one who earns you. Good luck girly. :)


I'm 20/f, dating a 20/m.

My boyfriend is 6'2" tall, and he's about 210 pounds, which I think is pretty normal. I've never thought he was chubby or even "teddy bear" sized, just that he wasn't exactly thin or scrawny. I know he was a lot heavier when he was younger, but by the time I met him he'd worked a lot of the weight off, so his weight looks to be about average.

Suddenly, in the past two months, he's started talking about how much he HATES the way he looks, how he "better get used to not liking who he is", and how he's upset because "he'll never get to where he wants to be", physically speaking. He joined a gym (I joined with him, because I want to start eating better and excercising), but he's constantly talking about calories and pounds lost ALL THE TIME.

In the one month that we've been going to the gym, he's stopped eating all junk food and candy, and has stopped drinking EVERYTHING except water and skim milk. He's lost almost 20 pounds in the last month, and he's still saying he hates how he looks.

I tell him I love his body and that I'm really attracted to him physically (it's true), but he brushes me off. He calls himself chubby and fat and he gets so upset that he won't even talk to me about it. It's like he refuses to believe me.

Tonight he said he wasn't leaving the gym until he burned 1000 calories, and he keeps saying things like "i'm just going through things" and "I didn't know this would be so hard". I'm REALLY scared.

What can I do? I'm crying just because I'm so scared and worried about his health, safety, and happiness. PLEASE HELP my boyfriend :( (link)
OK so dont tell him you are scared just act calm... buy a few books on it make sure hes doing it the healthy way leave them around. Its good that you are going with him to the gym just support him, make sure he knows that being super skinny is not appealing to any female :) solet him know he might want to TONE his body not burn all the fat,maybe gain some muscles maybe you could encourage him to use a workout dvd and some weights. I dont think men should be under 170 so 30 pounds is as low as he should go, and muscle weights more than fat so it should be fine if he wants to count calories he should go to livestrong.com and go to "my plate" its really good, some things are for members only but im not a member and it has just what i need, Technically sugars and fat have their ultimate effect on the body that are bad and nuts and meat have other effects that are good but if you want to count calories just keep eating what your eating just less////or exercise more. I hope atleast some of this helps, He needs to eventually reach a state where he feels comfortable with how he looks, sometimes my boyfriend will ask me why im working out or on a diet and be like " who are u trying to impress because im happy with how you look" but he doesnt understand that i am doing it so i can feel like im good enough for him. When he says i love you no matter what its like saying " hey i love you even though you are not perfect shape" and it does nothing to stop me lol... i think burning 1000 calories is close to too much though because as a male he should be taking in at least 2000 a day after exercise to be a healthy weightloss so if hes going to be burning 1000 make she he eats about 3000. Good Luck Hun Support him and make sure you keep an eye on him and his weight so you can keep track of these things, be happy for him when he is happy he lost pounds dont worry you will definitely be able to tell when you should worry remember if hes 1.NOT EATING or 2. UNDER 170lbs...there are other things to watch out for but those are key because he cannot be frail and under weight and he cant starve himself ---very bad obviously :) again good luck!


This is quite a long story. please bear with me.
17/f

There's this boy. he and i have been pretty close friends for more than 5 years. When we were younger, we had a little crush on eacother, but we were young, and nothing ever came out of it. A few years after that, when we were about 14, we started talking and i was convinced we were going to end up together. That year, i went on vacation, and when i came back, he had a girlfriend. (ive always hated this girl, just throwing that in there). I was upset with him for a while, but we weren't actually dating or anything, so i did the mature thing and didnt make a big deal out of it. We stayed friends since then.

now here's the "good" part. About a year ago, he and i were talking, and he told me that he's always (and stil has) had feelings for me. (He's still with the same girl from earlier in the story). So when he told me this, i got very excited because i still liked him too. A few months after he told me this, i moved to a new school an hour away. We've been talking since i moved, which was 9 months ago.

A few months ago, probaly in like, june, he tells me he wants to leave his girlfriend of 2 years, because 1. Things between them havent been so great, and 2. he wants to be with me. So since then, we've been talking every night for hours. He still hasnt broken up with her because he doesn't want to hurt her (so he tells me). he always tells me how sorry he is that he can't man up and leave her for me, and i know it sounds like a bunch of crap, but i believe him. A few weeks ago, we met up to hang out. And we kissed. While he still has a girlfriend. I feel super guilty because he still has a girlfriend, but i strangely don't regret it at all. In fact, i think id do it again.he just left for college 5 hours away. His girlfriend is clueless that he and i are even talking.

Am i "the other woman"? Does that make me a bad person? I can't take this anymore, its way too much stress. But i REALLY want to be with him. help?? Thanks so much (link)
Ok so i dont wanna sound like some crazy mean girl BUT you won she lost. he is the one who should feel guilty and truthfully you should tell him that u dont care about his girl being cheated on but the fact that he is disrespecting you by now making the move to break up with her...ive done this with someone before and im telling you he doesnt mean to disrespect you and it wont even feel like he is doing it but technically if his goal is to win your heart he should be able to break up with his faded old girlfriend. You mentioned you dont like her so im not sure why you feel so very bad---but if you feel like you owe her something you could step up and tell her yourself. But you need to know if he really wants you more than her because there are different consequences bad and good. It would be good to tell her if he really does like you more bcuz he will be relieved and then continue his relationship with you. But what if you tell her and he really liked her more and then hes just mad that you broke them up then you cant be friends.... Whatever you do remember its cool to be the one he left her for but NOT cool to be the one he keeps on the side hidden!Good luck gurly!:)


I had to do a presentation in my class the other day and at the end of it when I looked and made eye contact with my crush and saw that he was smiling. I guess I said something cute but his smile was really big. :]

I've liked him since last year but we're only acquaintances and the time we actually spend talking is minimal. I feel like I've seen him purposely look in my direction but it could just be my imagination.

Does my crush sound like it's returned? I'm afraid that I just think it is because I'm biased and WANT it to be.

PS: I'm 17/f

Make your goal to be his friend, this always works out for me because if he likes you the only thing thats stopping him is hes scared you wont like him but if he sees you are interested in him then he will most likely go for it, and if he doesnt like you then you will atleast be his friend i like doing this because even if im not his girlfriend at the end of the day he still likes hanging out with me the most :)


so im a senior this year. after highschool im going to college. i dont want to go to school in my home state i wanna go somewhere out of state. but my family keeps saying you gotta go to college instate because out of state is too expensive. well i really want to go out of state because i dont think any of the instate colleges will fit me. so what do i do? (link)
Well what colleges are you looking at? There are some out of state colleges where out of state tuition is not that bad i mean...its atleast double the instate but compare it to how much money you planned to spend anyway. or relook your options on the coleges instate, i dont know where you live but try collegeboard.com , whatever you do if you decide to work your butt off like another answer-er said then you have to be very very very focused because college is all on you, you have to believe it for every hour youre in class you need to plan to spend atleast an hour and a half on homework from that class. And nobody is going to remind you about anything until they have to take action and you dont want it to get to that point. Good luck with everything!


How old do you have to be to get a hotel room in new york city? I am 18. I want to go on a road trip with my boyfriend of 1 year. He's 19. We have never been to NYC before, and we hope to stay in a budget hotel for about 3 nights. (We both have minimum wage jobs.)

We both have debit cards, but don't have credit cards. I've heard that most hotels don't take you unless you're 21 and have a credit card. But what about if you're 18/19 and have a credit card? (link)
The two above are very correct when i turned 18 one week later me and my boyfriend booked a room in upstate ny called americas best he didnt pay or show id or anything i booked it myself i did everything in person because i had a coupon from Roomsaver, its a little booklet of coupons i believe you can find it online, lol but it seemed like a family business i saw only two indian people working there they looked like mother and son i showed them my debit card which they put on file but i paid in cash. I think since it was a family business they werent as worried about as much as places like double tree and holiday inn would worry. Good Luck and have fun :)
