  1. i think there's little doubt that steam and the buggy source engine has divided the community. non-steam (cracked) releases are very popular and the following for pre-steam releases is still formidable.

    I have Steam and I have my games legit but I still have to use cracked copies....why? Because Steam doesn't work in offline mode!!! I run steam when offline and it says its "updating" which is basically what it says when it can't contact any steam servers. 3 minutes later it asks if you want to start in offline or retry connection. When you click offline it either says "This option is not avaliable in offline mode" and quits or says "Unable to contact the steam servers" and quits.

    I acquired the cracked copies at LANs and require them at LANs because there is no other way to play. It also annoys me that when I want to play I have to download the updates. Like the latest CS:S update adds the map Militia and makes it so hostages can open doors. Well I like the hostage part but I don't really want the miltia map and hostages should be taken care of serverside so where is my option "Skip update, I don't want a 30mb map"

    Welcome to the world of DRM.

    Oh, and for people that say steam helps stop piracy. When HL2 was first released all the pirates were playing it while the legit users were stuck at "Content servers too busy, unable to decrypt game cache" for several days.

  2. There are two free versions of the DivX Player.....

    The first one is only a decoder...you can't encode movies with it...

    The other one has an Encoder but has Gain adware in it...

    meh, who cares, nobody needs to encode in DivX

  3. Opera all the way!!

    Hell Yeah!!

    Opera is too slow, even IE is faster.

    IE sucks beacuse it's one of the slower browsers and has lots of security flaws.

    Firefox is the way of the future, everyone should be using it and if you aren't then head over to http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ the newest version has a 3% speed up over the older ones.

    I just recently installed Firefox and it's a nice browser... but I have two issues... Can't autocomplete and can't open my launch.com page... bummer...

    Firefox can autocomplete and launch.com displays fine for me in Firefox.
