But I eated it. 

 

I tell a lie, I'm saving them for a pie. But I picked them right today, I picked a lot that's what I say.

 

So if you're reading this my bloggy software didn't let me down today, so here's the report direct from Robert McBloogington.

 

The day started with a very, very infected system, and no wonder. He was still "using"  AVG 7.5, a product that was replaced probably two or so years ago. Malwarebytes pulled more stuff off that machine then I've ever seen, but it finally finished and I started an avast! boot scan, so hopefully that'll take care of things. His neighbor apparently had a BSOD as well, but he bought a new laptop and gave the machine to this guy. So I took that one home, and it's reloading XP as we speak.

 

And by speak, I mean, I write.

 

So as I didn't have that machine to work on there, I came back and had lunch here. Then out to see Nick. He had some bizarre sound problem, and I mean weird. Sound played fine, but IN SLOW MO. At first I just though it was something going on with youtube, but then I realized, no, it's system sounds as well. How can this be? How can sounds play, but take like 3x longer? The aggravating thing was I would "make a change", (for once in my life. It's gonna feel real good, gonna make a difference, gonna make it right) and it would be fine. Then I would reboot, and it would be crap again. So finally I just said, "**** ****** ***** **** *********!!!!!" and put a new sound card in. That seemed to do the trick, as I rebooted and it stayed fine. 

 

Hate. Windows.

 

Next up KVM guy, once again, rebooted and it was all fine. Whatever.

 

Then the last one, some weird firefox plugin to do something they probably could be rewritten in HTML5 or whatever, but which ultimately just needed cookies erased to take effect. *shakes head* 

 

Off to see Mom & Dad, welcome home, gimme chocolate, that sort of thing. Wait, this satellite dish isn't chocolate! Ugh, their website is "Copyright 1999" and it looks it. I pity the fool ain't updated his website in 11 years. Guess they're too busy making that yummy... anyway. 

 

Then the dinner, picking berries,  and phone calls. Only received three, one of which was KVM guy again, now his machine won't turn off? That was 98's trick, not XP. But I told him how to do it, so for the moment that's fine. One other one was some prison outreach group with a couple of machines that only left the work number, and a lady I didn't reach. Super. But still, two for tomorrow, so that should be fine. 

 

Got ready for tomorrow, blog written, didn't even raise a single level last night, hopefully I will tonight!
