Liz, they should give you frequent flyer discounts!

As long as we're complaining.... I can't seem to fully shake the computer virus that has returned with a vengeance. I might be at the point of wiping her clean. Boo, hoo... losing all my pictures and music, which is too big to reasonably transfer.

Since none of you people sleep, did anyone get to see the meteor shower? It's raining here so we are out of luck.

KK, Are you on Windows or Apple?

Mary, I'm in another no-sleep mode. I peeked out and think I saw one meteor. Toad, I'm running windows, it is an old computer that fits my hand like a glove.

Teeth fixed, eyes next. Appt today. I find it sad how the back-to-school preparation for adults no longer involves supplies and clothes.

KK, OH SHIT, If It was Apple, the Apple Tech I know In Texas would solve your problem In a New York Minute. I have re-formated my computer, and lost all of that stuff before also, and It really pissed me off. I now use Apple. They don't have the problems Microsoft has. I think EVERYBODY using Windows should sue GATES In a class action suit for inferior software. Windows sucks. I never wanted Apple until my brother sent me his old i-mac, because the screen had lines In It. I just use a different monitor, and It works great. It's so easy to use, It's just amazing.

I don't have a tear in my beer but I do have a bruise on my butt. That's what happens when you miss a step and fall flat on your behind.

Mary, My sister Karen did that In St. Louis, and got a couple thousand bucks from the Bar's broken step. Do you have a photo. LOL

Mary, sorry you hurt your butt.

kk, if worse comes to worst, I can put your hard drive in an enclosure, making it an external hard drive, then I can scan it with Norton.

I did that to a friend's computer years ago and she had like 13 viruses.

My next door neighbor bought an Apple after he tried to update to Windows 7 and all hell broke loose. He literally threw away his pc and bought an Apple.

P.S. I dreamt that the JTI accepted advertising and we got rich.

ooo, did we buy an island to hold all our wild parties on??

OKIE said...

I'd have to sue myself. I was watering flowers and as I went to hit the step in the garden my foot slipped and down I went. Dumb. Good news is in the past week we've had 7 inches of rain with more coming so I won't be watering for a while.

Lizardmom, no island. Maybe I'll dream that tonight.

Mary, That's terrible. I did the splits one time from that type of fall. I have NEVER been built for the splits. Now when I fall, I only fall on my face.

OKIE said...

If your going to take a fall, it might as well be on your butt. That is where I have the most padding.

Sitting on the pier with only 2 bars.... That is on my iPhone. The pages are not loading and I have so much to wine about as long as you are all gonna listen

I had to play bingo today with mom. I was treated like a baby there.... I guess I was so to speak. I'm going to BINGO HELL for sure.

Falling after a certain age is no joke. I did a batman flying job a few years ago and it took me a long time to recover.

Thanks for the offer, orbs. I'll keep it in mind. In the beginning, I found several different things that came from the scans as malware. The odd thing is that now, nothing, and I mean nothing, detects this. It is running fine right now, and then all of a sudden, another redirect popup and I'm back to spinning and not loading pages. I'm beginning to think it is all in my head.

Glad someone is having good dreams. I'm going to try to latch on to that one; I've been having nightmares when I finally do fall asleep.

Oops, forgot to add a message to BLB. Hope you kicked those geezers butts at bingo. That'll teach 'em. ;>

Sittin in the morning sun, I'll be sittin when the evening comes...

Kk- Don't do that call Harbor P.C. and ask them what to do. That is the place that built are new tower.

We did not get to see the meteor shower.

Mary sorry to hear about your bruise.

KK- Download all your pictures onto a disc and then you will be able to get it all cleaned out. What we did was just downloaded are memory cards from pictures back into the computer and also the guys at Harbor P.C. can do that for you too!

kk, when the popup appears, copy down exactly what it says. Then Google that. If you can get a name for the virus, you may be able to find a solution.

Thanks for the suggestions. I've fixed and cleaned many PC's in the past. This is something extremely stealth. It could even be something that is not resident on my machine? It does have me baffled as to its randomness. At times it flies.

I've copied most of my very important data. My music files are too huge to get them all. A clean start is sometimes not that bad of a thing.
