Viruses, cats and barbies
>> Tuesday, August 11, 2009
Last weekend our computer was infected with a nasty virus. And it was all because of a DUMB move by yours truly.
I got a Facebook message from a friend. It was one of those "look at this video" messages. I thought it was strange she would send me such a message, but then I thought maybe it actually was something cool. I clicked on it, got a virus warning and quickly closed it all out.
I thought it was OK.
I thought wrong.
A few hours later, I went back to the computer and my husband said - "yeah, it isn't working right". My user account through XP would open and then lock up. I went through my husband's user account - it worked fine, but it did strange things, like the google search wouldn't work right.
And then the VIRUS WARNING started popping up. We finally shut it down and called Dell. After talking to a nice guy in India, and a nice lady in the Phillipines for oh, say 3 HOURS (NOT kidding) - and after about $130 in costs for the help - our computer was back up and running. Apparently it was a nasty Facebook virus that can also go around and disable McAfee! What a mess.
In other news...
Our house has become Barbie Central. An acquaintance of ours was kind enough to pass down oh, say, 35 barbies to my girls. And holy cow, are they in Barbie-heaven. They literally play "Barbie House!!!" day and night. Of course, it has become more than just Barbies, they also incorporate their Polly Pockets, Little People and even the dolls from Kallie's birthday cake.
As you can see, our cat Nugget seems to actually enjoy getting in on the fun. She actually lies in the middle of the mess while the kids put dolls on top of her and drive the doll's cars over her -
"Nugget is our mountain, Mom!"
Yup, that is one strange cat.
Anyway, whenever we go anywhere, and we finally get home, the first thing they do is plop down in the middle of their Barbies and continue playing. It is crazy how much they love these things, but they can play with these dolls and accessories for hours and hours and days and days. But, other than the mess, it keeps my 2 girls quite happy and quite busy as this summer quickly winds down.
Until next time!!!

Can anyone recommend the best IT automation tool for a small IT service company like mine? Does anyone use Kaseya.com or GFI.com? How do they compare to these guys I found recently: N-able N-central configuration management
? What is your best take in cost vs performance among those three? I need a good advice please... Thanks in advance!
