Dating Advice

I have a guy friend and we've know each other for years. I can feel if he likes someone but afraid to ask her out. To be honest, i am not good in giving advices most specially on how to ask a girl out on a date. So, how do you ask out an officemate for a date? I search on google and here's what i've found!


Here are some advice from wikihow.com on how to ask a female friend out on a date:
1. Look for Signals that she likes you. Learn to read her body language. Is her affection towards you brotherly or potentially romantic?
2. Find out what her interests are. You have a better chance of scoring a date if you're inviting her to an activity or event that you already know she's interested in.
3. Wait for the right moment. Ask her out in person, but over the phone is also an acceptable option. DO NOT ask someone out over Facebook.
4. Be Clear. Whether you propose a trip to the movies or offer to cook her dinner, she might misinterpret your question as just a friendly gesture. Again, make it clear that this is a date.

FAKE AV - Smart Fortress 2012


You might be wondering why my second entry has something to do with a fake antivirus program. I 'm a technical support engineer and this past few weeks, a new variant of rogueware is spreading in the internet. My advice is to be extra careful on downloading free software and always run a scan at the end of browsing activity.

The behaviour of this malicious program is to display fake alerts and shows the computer is extremely infected. It will show you an offer that it will get rid of the viruses or will fix the problem by purchasing a license. Don't be deceive and do not be fooled on buying this crap!
