Right now, I’m posting from work. There’s something really screwy with my home computer (mouse not working, windows opening and closing by themselves, etc. - yes, I already ran virus and spyware scans) and my Tech Sensei can’t confer with me until tomorrow.
So if I simply disappear until then, I wasn’t taken into custody. Don’t you worry.







Flash the bios, then in system setup do an alt+e+f+b.
Work? Did I miss some good news?
I work five hours a week. So no, no news.
Yes, and I am getting a ton of spam, some of which has your return address, so I would say you need better antivirus.
How do we know you are really Susie and not some FBI imposter? Maybe the reas Susie is on her way to Gitmo for some of that great fruit salad they serve there. How do we know you are not a “gubment” spy?
FREE SUSIE! LONG LIVE THE UBERBLONDE! FIGHT THE POWER!
Of course I meant “real” Susie.

That was not Susie. And your attitude & IP address have been noted.
Is that a knock on your door ? Did you say you heard a helicopter over your house all afternoon ??

Same thing happened to me. Like the computer was possessed, the cursor jumped all over the place, windows opening and closing at will. I thought for sure it was a virus. I panicked. Then I bought a new mouse, and the problem was solved. (Later the same thing happened with the new mouse, and the only thing I needed to do was restore the connection in the back of the computer which had been loosened and reboot.)
Well, it turns out it was a bad mouse, like Joe described. So now it’s okay (fingers crossed). Mithras, I run three antivirus programs and a firewall. If you’re getting spam with my address on it, it may very well have picked up the address out of YOUR address book.
Simiolarly, I had many emails vanish while I was composing them, and many cases of the system freezing up or shutting down simultaneously.
A cheap new keyboard solved the problem, and it came bundled with a mouse as well.
