Happy New Year

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and wishing you a happy, healthy new year ahead. :)

It's almost Christmas!

I finished my shopping, mailed the gifts and cards last week. The weather is cold and it feels like Christmas. I hope you all have a safe and happy holiday with family and friends. :)

Sick and Trojans

I and my computer both got sick about the same time. I with some awful cold or flu, with a cough that won't stop. I got it from my son, we are both almost well after about 3 weeks now. My poor computer got some backdoor Trojan which apparently let others in also. Seems to be no solutions to remove the last and most vicious of them as it is all over my computer. My externals are okay, but didn't get to back up onto either in a few months, but at least they are safe. All my research of the past few months is on my computer and the most I have found in such a short time. In fact I found more in 4 months work than I did in the first years of my researching. My sons think I can probably scan each section and then burn a disk, plus I will be printing out all the text and documents. We are not sure about the photos and other images on the computer, they maybe compromised but hopefully they are okay as well. This will all take me a while to do but at least I didn't crash and lose it all. I hate those kids, mostly 15-25 that send out those viruses etc or attach them to things. Apparently I got one from one of the German sites while I was doing research, since it is all in German. I haven't done much online because of the computer issue, have to use an old laptop and being sick didn't help. I will post some sites later. I hope you all have a wonderful holiday. :)
