^&#@!%*%$ Computer!!!!!!!
 
I've never wanted to cuss so badly in my whole life!!! I am so mad!!!! My computer has that pop-up adware stuff!!! I'm trying to get something downloaded to help but I'm having problems even with that!!! Plus, I have porn stuff popping up and believe me some of it is really trashy!! GGGGRRRRRR!!!!! I'm so mad!! This isn't what I had planned for my day!!!! %#&*)@!!!!!!!!!!!!

Diana, so sorry about your computer woes! Hopefully you'll have the problem fixed soon! That would be very aggravating!

DianaB 11-10-2009 02:29 PM

The aggravating part is that I just went through this just a while back. It's so fustrating to lose everything you have on your computer just to get it cleaned up. And this time I have porn pages that are popping up that have women with women......I'm about to throw up!!! I'm just going to take this to my friend and have him look at it again. Bummer!

He told me that AVG was the best........He lied!!!!!

Gina 11-10-2009 02:59 PM

Oh boy I can see that you are having a bad day.. Porn.. ughh too bad it was not sexy men popping up.. J/King SORRY!!!

I hope that you can get to the problem that does drive one mad enough to @*&^%

NOTHING makes me crazy like electronics!!!! Good luck getting it straightened out:D

DianaB 11-10-2009 06:43 PM

Ok....I'm feeling a LOT better. I finally got something figured out where I could download some anti-virus programs. I thought that I had one but it wasn't doing the job. If you're interested this is what I put on.....My SIL says that this is what they use at his office and it's free......www.malwarebytes.org

After I did a scan it showed that I had 4 files affected and it took care of them. One was a trojan so we'll see what happens.

There's a little woman in, probably......India.....that is so lucky that I held my tongue because I was very fustrated and she didn't understand OR speak english very well. I was NOT in a very good mood to deal with her!!!! I'm not ever like that but.......today......I tell you........I just about lost my Christianity!!!! LOL

LOL! Diana!!! I've spoken to that little woman in India several times about several problems, and I dont' think I've been quite as nice as you! :D

DianaB 11-10-2009 09:41 PM

I really don't picture you being any different than I was, Gayle. Of course, I haven't seen that side of you either.

Marilyn 11-11-2009 04:23 AM

Hope your problems are over, Diana. I use Norton 360, and so far have had no problems. Knock on wood!!

2tiredmom 11-11-2009 07:29 AM

Glad you got it fixed Diana. We'd be lost here w/o you. ;)

Janet 11-11-2009 08:42 AM

We never tried the Norton 360, but the Norton we did try wasn't worth anything, plus Norton slowed our computers waaaay down...they're always running it seems. We really like the people at Best Buy and then there is a guy that works on computers here in town and they both said Kasperky is one of the best. So....that's what we are using. I've had my laptop for awhile now and I've not had any pop-ups or viruses. Hubby did and Ricky did when they had Norton, but once we got them switched...they haven't had any more problems either. I heard another good one was AVG or something like that, but I have no experience with it.

I'd just switch over to Glen's computer. Ha Ha!!! He doesn't like for me to be on it and if I ever got a virus on it I'd be in such trouble. He has all of our farm info on there plus the church records. I'm always very careful when I'm on his computer.

I'm glad that I got it fixed too (fingers are crossed anyway)!!!! I might actually have to do some housework if my computer was down!!!!

paula1961 11-11-2009 12:05 PM

So glad you got it fixed Diana!!

I have used that malewarebytes when I had a trojan virus, and it took care of it right away. Now I have Bitdefender, which allows nothing in! But....it got a virus on it's own maleware, and I had to reinistall it. (Kind of like maleware AIDS). It is very annoying, because it takes a lot of time. It's always telling me to fix issues, and it slows down my computer. Actually, I hate it.

I have been quite annoyed by that very same Indian woman! I always try to be polite, because I know these workers are doing their best with English, which is a very difficult language. I also am glad that they have jobs so that they can support themselves and their families. Sometimes, though, it is impossible to solve a problem. I find that just quietly disconnecting (hanging up), works well.
Sometimes you can call back and get someone who is better with English, or even sometimes works out of Canada.

I am glad you got your problem solved!

DianaB 11-12-2009 10:06 AM

Well, I'm back to tell you that I didn't get the problem solved so today I'm probably going to be on the phone all day with Dell. First I'm going to try and save my pictures and then I'm calling them. I'm on Glen's computer now because I'm afraid to be on mine any more than I have to. I'm so fustrated.
