And it's pretty much official ...

[Stormsfury]

MY PC's pretty much got some malicious issues and components that continually drops out my internet connection after being online for approx. 10 minutes ... so I'm forced to reboot every time ...

The PC itself seems fine, but I think that I'm going to have a very savvy pc guru reformat my entire system (w/upgraded stuff, of course) and just note: BE CAREFUL what you download, even if it's apparently safe to do so ...

The inline problem on my system seems to be from ZoneLabs (and EZ ARMOR/FIREWALL), a free component download from Roadrunner ... the firewall continually seems to activate, even though, I've already done sufficient scans all across the boards on my system. I've removed those components, however, the firewall was NOT removed and hidden somewhere, and still continually locks down my internet access at home ...

So basically, just a basically hellaciously wonderful (w/extreme sarcasm) start to 2005 ...

let's see ...

* had to replace the brakes and rotors on my car
* short-term memory loss at times
* want to strangle the supervisor since civilized reasoning goes thru his tiny little brain. I don't deal well with authority figures abusing their power, and of one who clearly displays disparity of treatment towards others.
* money spent faster than a raging firestorm
* PC is internet useless (thanks you stupid spyware/adware creators for fudging up my PC trying to protect mine w/useless garbage ... )

I'll be on periodically, but until all the new upgrades (and/or) a new system is in place, I regret that my online time will be greatly shortened and thusly, delays any chances of issuing LR outlooks on the 2005 Tropical Atlantic Season, and other various MR products that I'm so used to doing.

We're not scared to lose it all
Security throw through the wall
Future dreams we have to realize
A thousand sceptic hands
Won't keep us from the things we plan
Unless we're clinging to the things we prize

CHORUS
And do you feel scared - I do
But I won't stop and falter
And if we threw it all away
Things can only get better
Wow wow wow oh, wow wow wow oh oh oh oh

Treating today as though it was
The last, the final show
Get to sixty and feel no regret
It may take a little time
A lonely path, an uphill climb
Success or failure will not alter it

And do you feel scared - I do
But I won't stop and falter
And if we threw it all away
Things can only get better
Wow wow wow oh, wow wow wow oh oh oh oh

And do you feel scared - I do
But I won't stop and falter
And if we threw it all away
Things can only get better
Wow wow wow oh, wow wow wow oh oh oh oh






Keep your chin up, SF. Thing will get better....God is testing your patience. lol
He tests mine ALL THE TIME!
