Any other little fixes you want let me know soon while I still have this guy wrapped around my finger

I love you.

Those damned popups seemed to serve no purpose whatsoever, other than to annoy the more security aware windows users. I'm just glad its only my laptop, It'd be too much otherwise.

thank you sir, you are the man.
