I think this thing has picked up a virus...

That would explain a lot.
When I first got here a little while ago, it was being screwier than usual. Mind you, when I left it last might, it was fine....s-l-o-w, but fine, otherwise. I go to bed (my mistake), come back out and ...here we go...

It wouldn't go to Yahoo (or whatever) as if it had ever done it before, so I got pissed and shut it down 'wrong'...as in by the button on the front of the 'tower' thing. When I pushed it again to start, I get these black screens with lotsa white writing on 'em and then it gives me this shit about how to start...'normal' or 'safe'. Well, safe mode looked like something outta a Stephen King book, Desktop background (clouds) looked like something from "Land of the Lost" and all the icons were bigger and moved. I shut that down, too.
I get the 'normal' or 'safe' shit again and make it go 'normal'.
Then it wants to give me a page about some kinda Windows shit it can't find. Something about wini-some shit, I think.
Then it goes to the black page that says 'push any key to start', so I did. It takes about a minute, but the desk top appears. Then this little 'search' thing shows up saying it can't find 'msdos.exe' and I say "Fuck off" and close it and it all works anyway....siiiigh.
SO! I run Adaware, get rid of the shit. Update Adaware, run it again and get rid of the shit...except for this 'virus' it says it found and can't clean and I should delete it, so I did. Then, I hadda reboot AGAIN and re-run Adaware. It found 4 more things, so I dumped them and ran it yet again. Came up clean the last time, but I am CERTAIN if I shut down, it's gonna take me thru all those black pages fulla gibberish again...so, I'm hoping to not hafta do that.

This is another one a those times when I hate this shit, by the way.

The virus it says it found is called win95/Coke22231, whatever the fuck that means. It's alleged to be (or have been-WHATEVER!!!) in C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\1654605451.
Now. What the hell does that mean? It said I could delete it, which I did and replace the file, which I have no idea what the fuck that means. Why the hell would I want to replace an infected file after I just went thru HELL getting rid of it? That's just stupid.
Then again...so are viruses and the scum who start them. And, this machine for doing whatever it did to get infected. I mean...I wasn't even on here, ya know? I was ASLEEP!!! It wasn't my doing, but....guess who gets to go bald (and drive Paul to pound his head on a desk) fixing it?
Here's a hint: It ain't any of the animals in this house or the animal who made up the fuckin' virus shit, 'kay? And, it ain't Eric or George. Or, for that matter, anybody else on the entire goddamned planet except ME.
I wouldn't mind so much, fixing stuff I fucked up, but this is getting beyond ridiculous. I'm totally convinced that if I were to unplug this thing, throw it outside, never to so much as look at it again, it would still do shit to mind-fuck me. I don't know how, but I know it would.
Honestly.

Anyhoot...(giggle)...I'm dealing with this the best I can, but I have one (million) question(s)....Why does it hafta put me thru all this new bullshit AND tell me it's searching for msdos.exe, which that sounds like it won't work without it, but then it does work anyway? If it has to be such a pain in the balls about all this crap, but it'll work without it, or whatever, why doesn't it then just shut the fuck up and work without all the new and improved bullshit? Why put me thru it, if it doesn't matter anyhow...you stupid, plastic spawn of Satan?

Siiiiggghhhh.

Stock tip for ya's...buy aspirin company stock. It's gonna do nothing but go up as long as this thing persists in it's pyschotic behavior. And...I am no longer going to be responsible for any actions I take born of frustration, up to and including beating the snot outta Jon.
Okay?
Good.

I'm gonna go smoke something.
(Hope the bits of plastic don't choke me too much...)
Arrgh!
(Instead of 'Peace'...ya know?)
