Governor's School for the Arts: Day 6.

My compy is dying, I think. I can't do anything with it. I've tried every virus deleting and detecting software out there. They all say that my computer doesn't have any viruses or spyware, but my computer can hardly load and pop-ups are everywhere. They even try to pop-up when I'm not online (they ask me do I want to work off-line). My last hope is to run all my computer's anti-viral software in safe mode again, but now the compy won't even go into safe mode! God! Help is appreicate, my dear tech-savvy friends.

Had another girl go home today. Had to help her move. I'm never going to be on the proper schedule if this keeps up.

That sounds similar to a virus...a trojan I think, that was going around the Bard server a couple years back...little Lauren, Alex and I all had it on our computers...I think I finally had to reformat to get rid of it...which seriously sucked...but...better than loosing the computer altogether.

I re-downloaded a program and ran it in Safe Mode last night and was able to get the last remnants of the virus off the computer. The only problem now is that the program is bogging down my computer when it starts and the Internet is having to redownload all the temporary internet files of the sites I visit a lot which is making it slow. I'd rather have that than no compy! XD

Hey, at least you were able to get rid of it...but yeah...that virus is nasty...I think another way to get rid of it, now that it's not some crazy hour of the evening, is to switch from using IE...and just delete that off your computer...I feel like that may have been little Lauren's solution.
