I'm infected.
For the last three days I've been duking it out with some spyware virus in my system. Everytime I think I get close to a cure, I find my system gets even sicker.
We're talking about major lethargy, erratic behaviour, binging and purging. The list is endless. Headache.
I don't even like typing the words spyware virus for fear it could bring more aggravation. But that would leave me with "SWV" and the last thing I need are some witless fools looking for Sisters With Voices music.
I'm two minutes from taking advantage of my friend's Apple discount and ditching the whole thing for something slick, sleek and not sick.
This is probably payback for all that Schadenfreude.
I have had surprisingly GREAT luck with Norton's 360. It catches (or at least it says it catches) a lot of spyware and disables it. Cookies are good with milk...but not so with PCs.
ReplyDeleteI also bought a live person from Norton who spent a couple hours peering through my system and registries. I was amazed at how everything ran after that. I'm pretty savy with computers but she did a great job.
