so after a long fought out battle i gave up and decided to play a game on my jacked up computer.... then i wanted to patch the game and it keeps freezing...so i said wtf and I went to sleep a day & 3 bottles of beer later i take another stab into the dark and reformat yet AgAiN.

How i fixed the firewall issue i don't know 100% for sure but i have theories......the antivirus wasn't installing the updates because i moved my temp and temp internet files over to my other drive.....which in the end caused chaos with symantec.....i guess symantec doesn't expect people to go into evironment variables and start messing around with stuff...

potaTO rigid programs wtf i can't orgainize my files and how they are kept without having issues with my software

lol total bs...so oh well

yeah i heard (mostly from google) the firewall im using sucks but i got the damn thing to work
