Computer Down and Injuries

Yes, Kris' little Acer is have problems - AGAIN!
Since the last restore it has been touch and go but I stuck with it and finally on last Monday had a completely functional and clean computer - then I took it with me Tuesday morning.

I rarely carry my little guy around with me, but I wanted to reference some stuff on it for a lecture I was to give.  And silly me, I had set the network to auto attach to WANs when discovered.  I am thinking Starbucks or maybe the local library when I can get free attachment for playing on the internet - for like doing these posts.


Well, you have already seen the error I made, my machine did an auto attachment and even though I did nothing on the internet, the machine was happily downloading virus after virus after virus at the rate of about 6 per second!  I even have a firewall!  I was so unhappy as I read through the log file of the firewall - it blocked thousands of hits but some still were not blocked!

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!

So, computer goes down last Friday, for yet another rebuild, and hopefully I will get it right this time!

If no other posts show up this week, I do apologize, I am still down in that event....

In the end, I did get my little 'puter almost complete by the end of the weekend.  It is Sunday and 11 pm as I type this but it is still attempting to attach a printer.  Sigh ..

However, Saturday night also at 11:00 pm, I got up to call it a night and CRACK! I took one step and foot broke in a manner it has never done!  Oh the pain!

Well, I can no longer walk or even stand.  Dutchman was howling with laughter today at my attempt to use a urinal while balanced on one foot!  A very mean man!  But he needed a laugh it has been a very hard year so far on him!

Anyway, I am spending Monday with my various foot surgeons to see if my reconstruction can occur sooner - like next week!  We will see.....
