Windoze and Virii
As with anyone who uses Windows OS, knows — problems sneak in through web connections. I have been fighting “virii/trojans” and assort malware — yesterday and today — first time this year; and probably not the last.
The good news?
My laptop is still operating.
The bad news?
I am still not sure my computer is “clean” of the malware/infected files.
When I last checked the boot scan on the computer upstairs, is was closing in on 50% scanning of the C:/, then it will have to scan the external HD, and the thumbdrive, which may be infected as well.
Such a FUN way to begin the new year, right?
NOT likely!
At least the Linux machine is alive, kicking and immune to virii…that is how I am able to post while the laptop is being scanned.
And how has your Friday been?
I will post something of a more positive nature, whenever I know something more about my laptop.
For now, I will be checking messages, tweets, and posts (FB).
So if you need to reach me; try those sites. OR you can send me an email.
