Heartbeat City
About a month ago my computer developed a security leak. Since that time it's become ever more twitchy and jittery; iTunes still has problems simply playing songs, f'r example, and some websites cause IE to crash.
DIGRESSION ALERT: Yes, IE. Sorry, Firefox fans.
This morning, though, the fecal matter connected with the primary air circulation system. There's now a worm inside the computer, which means I can't fire up any of the programs on my user area (I'm logged onto my own machine as a guest at the moment). I've got to the point where I'm very fed up with the whole thing. The way I sees it (bit of Popeye for you there), there are a brace of options once the computer's fixed.
1) Ramp up the firewall and protection stuff to the maximum.
2) Unplug the Internet cable.
I don't like the sound of either option, but something must be done. I am fed up with this choppy, randomised access to the Internet. Maybe the third way is to be a guest on my own computer forever... doesn't sound too appealing, I have to admit.
Be well and leading good lives, my friends.
