Thanks... I will not touch MTN.

@Alph Check your link

@All I need reccomendations on a good anti-virus. My AVG has been unable to clear one nasty virus called I-Worm/VB.FZ for the past 3 days. I need any free anti-virus that I can download from the net. Its urgent.

@coola, since you know the location of the virus, just delete it and clear it from your recycle bin. you could still quarantine it with avg or delete.

@coola: alternatively, you could download Avast4 home edition, its a very good AVG and its free.

heard from a source from celtel that they are already test running a service called visto which is similar to blackberry being offered by glo. Don't have much info on this, but I'll keep us informed

@easyd: lets hope they dont remove your cred a few days later or on your next reload!!! MTN are like that!!!!

@namzo: watch out which cafes you go to!!! these efcc people dont care!!! they just pack everyone in the cafe and you'll then be looking for bail money!!!

@coola: i used to be on either Norton or Mcaffe but since i got Kaspersky AV i have been estatic!!! It doesnt interfer with my Download accelerators at all, un like the rest.

@all: all this 3g gist, have any of them given an actual roll out date? I know the costs will be held close to there chests tillthe last second. But unless we start to charge the average international cost if 1G services (we pay more than 3 times that for our SMSs) we will never get a good deal unless when they give the services free for months on end!!!

glo claims to be 3g ready but will probably be waiting for licence from NCC. gprs/3g services dont deserve to be priced at 70k because i cant imagine the data cost of video streaming at that price. i believe it's going to be cheap sha. i suspect that celtel would be the ones to crash data prices.

the celtel connection has become unbearably sluggish here the last few days. but as usual, it should pick up again shortly.

@laykay: the slow speed of celtel gprs is not limited to ur location. remember that the more users that are online the slower the speed. but its better this morning. yes ur phone can affect the apparent speed of ur browsing. the processor is the key here.

@egunje: my bet is that Atiku will see out his term, then he'll arrested and prosecuted. Obj and Ribadu will see to that.

@mamba: all these GSM co.s like to play with language loosely!!! What does it mean to be 3G ready? The equipement is in a warehouse? It has been set up at the Switches but not the cell sites? Its been set up at the cell sites but it hasnt been test run? Beleive me, if they have done a test run, someone here would have known (it is usually the period that we get it free for a while).

@egunj: AT last, something to argue about!!!!! It is impossible to expect complete justice in Naija as for now. But it still bugs me that OBJ can try to smudge a former bed-fellows like ATK. I never looked at ATK as a sharp guy, but he must have some evidence of him and OBJ wacking something jointly. If its is out there, OBJ wont be able to do anything serious and this may be an elaborate smoke screen for something bigger. All in all, i doubt that they will get him out till his term ends.

@Amby: dont you think OBJ has skeletons in his closet that ATK can use against him?

@namzo: I checked out the ngbot but was dissapointed but not surprised at the lopsidedness of the directory.

@laykay: gprs speeds are regulated by voice calls in your area. thats why most likely if you try browsing at 3am you'll get optimum speeds.

@All: by the way, my MTEL has been down for about 3 months now so no one should be salivating at it!!!!
