My computer is all fritzed, I'm guessing by what the kids these days call "Malware" but my generation called 'devils.' My various programs to protect me all say everything is fine, but in the last three weeks these symptoms have appeared in my Windows XP.
- First my DVD burner slowed to a halt (the last DVD took 8 hours to burn)
- MS Paint launches without any controls or color swatches.
- USB devices aren't detected anymore.
- Add Remove Programs in Windows lists no programs.
- Everytime I click a link in IE a new window opens.
- The clock is suddenly wrong, and I cant change it.
- It randomly beeps.
- I need to try three times to launch Photoshop, and the third time it works.
- After about an hour, all internet browsers just kinda stop working.
- The cursor doesn't appear when I'm posting on this board.
With it being summer vacation and being away from the office, with my homestation possibly being down (or me re-installing Windows and setting fire to my whole block) I may be incommunicado for a while.
To you all, I say "courage."
