Last week when visiting The Pioneer Woman I got a virus. Some trojan/downloader/infostealer thingy. I know it was from her site because my sister got the exact same virus when she was on PW site. I have been scanning, rescanning, deleting, quarantining, and everything else imaginable my computer every single day multiple times. They just keeps coming back. Combine that with the blue screen of death, weird application errors, and slow internet and I’m about ready to chuck my computer out the window! I really, really like my computer but I’m afraid it is time to upgrade to a better and faster model. I really can’t edit photos with all of the nonsense going on so you’ll notice my posts are missing the photos. Thankfully I have my laptop to keep me connected to the world and if all else fails and I get really desperate I can always use my ‘hand me down - but new to me and I love it’ iphone.
If you hear a loud crash it was probably my computer falling from the sky. Watch out below!!!

Does PW know about the virus? I go to her site daily, and my computer has been slow lately too. Hmm.

I’m not sure where I got it, but work computer got that same crazy virus. Then another co-worker got it. And Jon got it on his work computer. My help desk said viruses are out of control right now with that April 1 virus going around. They had to reimage my machine but Jon’s help desk fixed his!.

Did you try the Webroot software yet?
It’s the only one that picked up ALL my THREE viruses.
Ugh, I know.
