WARNING: Do NOT let me use your microwave...
Today I'm having a hissy fit with the pc.
SOME people I know will tell me I should have gone down the Mac track and today I will agree with them wholeheartedly!
Got a virus last night whilst Miss Feral 19 was surfing the sites.
Did a system restore this morning,ran every scan known to mankind and even some only used by the martians in Area 51.
Somehow along the way I managed to delete IE and Outlook express.
I know,I know....such a talent in PC wrecking going to waste in the 'Burbs !
But the clever little dicky bird that I masquarade as every other leap year discovered Mozilla still in the programs and
VOILA!
I'm still online !
While I'm on the technology roll,I thought I'd finally teach myself to program the VCR.
Now I've just got to figure out how to switch the unit on.....

The machine I'm now using once got so invaded and clogged that I ended up having to reformat the hard drive, that's right, erase everything and reinstall the operating, system XP Pro, from scratch. I always save my data on a separate drive, and still had all my program discs. Still it was a hair-raising experience, took almost all day, and there is now not a single program or applet on it that I don't want. It works better and faster now than when I bought it.
BTW, Macs are less prone to virus because hackers are less interested in them. I used Macs at work for years and they're far from perfect, the hype notwithstanding.
As a Mac user, I will not rub it in how much I truly love the Mac OS compared to Windows. Good luck getting things worked out.
Somewhere Joe isn't a fan of Macs. Don't listen to him. Macs are perfect as far as I can tell. They don't fart, they're original, and they improve your social standing tenfold.
I'm using the Vista phishing filter - eek
Dont tell anyone that I work in IT (shhhh!)
