I Gots Cooties

At the moment, I am typing on my laptop, surrounded by used tissues and packages of Halls candy. Have been hit with a good old fashioned cold, and hit hard, but I'm rebounding.

I can't say the same thing for my main computer. It, too, is under the weather. It got hit with a nasty virus a few days ago, which is especially frustrating because I am very careful with my downloads and suspect this little lovely came from a hacked WordPress website that hadn't been updated by the blogger. I was already on the site when I saw the post that warned it had been seriously hijacked. *sigh*

We've been able to find some of the files on the system that have been tampered with, but it's not all clean. Now, when I'm connected to the net - and only when I'm connected to the net - and try to do a scan, it logs me out and causes a Windows restart (DCOM server process service terminated yadda yadda).

SO I'm still around but not as much (hate the laptop). If you have any suggestions, let me know. Otherwise, I'll hopefully see you soon when I am in a cootie-free zone.
