To err is human-- and to blame it on a computer is even more so. Robert Orben |
Do you find you often have a love/hate relationship with computers? When they are working well, and doing exactly as you want them to, without any nasty surprises or hiccups, they are GREAT. But when they don't do at all as you expect hope or develop a fault they become your worse enemy? A few weeks ago, i picked up a Trojan while online. And I am broadband interent, and every time I started or restarted my computer without me touching anything, my browswer would just start up of its own acccord without me tuooching anything, and take me to sites that would make most folks
and by the end of three days of this happening and doing two hard drive formats and it still happening, felt much the frustration of the person in the vdo by then. i finally got rid of it, by formatting my hard drive (yet again) and before installing anything else, putting both a fire wall and anti spyware on. As it was apparently spyware which caused this particular problem and infected me with the trojan. but yes, I can sympathise and empathise with the guy in the vdo.
