    OK, you got me there. They provide 100megabit *per second* with no data caps. afaik data caps are pretty rare in the UK.

    Or you can be reckless and just use milk. Tastes so much better.

    I drink around 4-5 tea's a year. Don't drink coffee or smoke, drink etc. I do probably eat a little too much sugar and fat though.

    I've had coffee once, and I hated it. I don't need caffeine in my life, I'm already a morning person :p

    I've got 10 megabits per second, with a 20GB data cap. GG satellite. What sucks worse, is I'm the only one in the area with satellite, everyone else has DSL. The previous owners DSL for Christ's sake! But of course, as soon as they move, someone takes their spot, leaving me with no DSL :\

    Yeah, thats some what true, I'm on BT at the minute, have a basic fibre package which is 2Mb/s faster than my old copper connection from them, so its 10Mbs vs 8Mbs from before, which is pretty shit as fibre goes. All UK ISPs block sites like the piratebay etc, you can just use a proxy site or a VPN to get around it which I do. Virgin just full on blocks all P2P traffic that may be torrents so its even worse in my case.

    From checking the best looking options for me are Origin, Plusnet and a few others that seem pretty decent in my area, all unlimited and slightly faster (according to the pretty useless "up to" figure) than what I have and don't have any stupid day time throttling like the JohnLewis Broadband packages.

    shit.

    some malware got in my computer. "Flash player updates," video adverts and porn sites are not supposed to come up when I go on BeamNG.com. I closed Opera via Task Manager when 10 tabs opened on me at once, unfortunately Opera is going to reopen every single one when I start it because "recovery" backups...

    I have a few virus scanners running atm since Avast found nothing.

    Try Malware Bytes (if it isn't part of the list) if somehow those don't find it. Otherwise, I don't know.

    If it is part of the list and it doesn't find the malware, idk then. Also, try cleaning out Opera cache (or open with no internet connection) so you don't have that happening again.

    If Avast doesn't work, I go and run Malwarebytes and its 2 add-ons (JRT and Adwcleaner).

    It found an adware called YoBrowser in %appdata% and in some of my browsers' folders.

    Clear your cookies, look through programs and features for anything that looks remotely adware related.

    Try using AdwCleaner. It helped me.

    I'm running a boot-time scan from Avast and right now it's listing every BeamNG mod on the hard drives as decompression bombs, especially Djplopper's config mod and an unofficially mostly-fixed VarietyMod zip... It better not delete them because I forgot to backup.

    If this doesn't work then I don't know what to run afterwards.

    By that logic, every ZIP file is a decompression bomb. :p

    And don't you hate that? Probably should've see if you could disable decompression bomb detection...
