viruses

Both my mother and sister were really sick yesterday. I wasn't, even though we all ate the same foods. What's up with that? Do I have an iron stomach? Aren't most of what we used to call the "24-hour bugs" actually some kind of food poisoning? I don't know.

Been fiddling with my computer today too. Finally figured out how to remove the Norton Anti-virus that came installed on my computer. Now, now, don't scream at me. I have AVG now, which is free, and more importantly, works just fine. Norton kept giving me popups and reminders that I needed to renew my subscription and all that.

However, now I find I have a virus/Trojan horse deal that can't be deleted. It's in the "archives" whatever that means, and has something to do with my Java program. That's about all I understand. Hope it won't cause any huge problems. I had another virus that supposedly would be fixed by updated my Microsoft windows stuff, but now I have a weird looking toolbar I don't like as much as I did the former one.

See, like I said a few posts ago, I don't like change.

Anyway, hope my computer doesn't explode, or someone get all my financial information (not that it would help anyone much).

It's raining and very windy here; strange weather, but appropriate since the last two years of camping over New Year's has been rained out. It's been cold and dry for the last three weeks, and then today? Rain.

I did get a cool picture this morning. Not as cool as the real thing, mind you, but cool nonetheless.
