    Sadly, so many users continue to be scammed by these rogues.
    They are very good at getting unknowing users to install their products.

    Yes, they are. some of the more “Hard Core” rouge programs are not listed, which many i had to manually destroy. one of which, Antivirus Pro 2009 (i beleive) or Antivirus 2009 virtually corrupted all of my files to the point of no return. my computer died 3 days later. then i had to reformat the whole system, wiping all of my personal files, games, music, and more. dont trust website kids, and always have multiple antivirus systems at the same time, not any single antivirus system is perfect, they all have flaws.

  3. I have had the Samsung Rogue since Jan 7th, it previously worked great until about two months ago. my phone does not receive texts messages till about 20-30 mins after the other person sent them. most of the occasion i will get several messages at once, when i do get them. any time i send out a picture message at times it will send just fine and other occasions it may take a few minutes, hours, or a day to get to the other person. i have heard of others having difficulties with their phone randomly shutting off, mine does that too. my first samsung rogue got so awful i had to get a replacement, that was nearly 2 weeks ago. I am still having the same troubles with my new one! I am so distressed, i just wish to get a new type of phone. i payed retail for the rogue and am so mad that it switched out to be a crappy phone :/ just my rant…
