Ramblings of a Demented and Overstressed Mind.

When is a virus not a virus?
When it's the command lines to your DSL. I had two programs say on my mother's computer (she is pretty computer illiterate) that these files were ones that hackers could use to gain control of your computer so I naturally deleted them. Only to find that they were files that allowed the DSL modem to talk to my mother's computer. Naturally I wasn't happy. And considering this all happened right as I was getting ready for breakfast before work, tech support was least on my mind. So, once I got home and settled around I finally got things half going. At least I can try to repair her connection but it still says invalid IP address and I have no idea (except for reinstalling the DSL modem files from a disk they have no idea if they still have or not sweatdrop ) how to fix it.

Edit. They have the disk but now Macromedia is having errors stressed Sometimes I really do have technology.

Anyway. Except for computer programs the day was ok. Supposed to snow later tonight into tomorrow and have 4 - 6 inches. If it dies at work tomorrow I'll be able to go home early. Next week I have another wonky schedule but not quite as bad as this one (just fewer hours.) And other than that, not much going on in the world.
