I AM SICK OF VIRUSES & BACTERIA!

I've really been trying hard to keep my blog a happy and positive place, but I've just about had all I can take this week and I need to vent somehow! After over a week of not sleeping b/c my poor baby was sooo very sick with bacterial pneumonia, I've had week number two sleepless nights b/c my computer was sick with a virus!!! Growl! GROWL! So, while I was trying to download a program for the computers in the lab at the Y (which I had already spent hours on setting up and making notes on for our computer guru) a message popped up on the taskbar saying I was infected! When I clicked on the notice it immediatly started downloading "Microsoft Anti-Virus Pro 2009" which I had never heard of and didn't authorize. I knew immediately something was wrong and started deleting files...sure enough it was a big fat fake anti-virus program and a completely viral infection! It disabled my Norton and there was a fake anti-spyware program making it's way around my poor computer's insides as well! So I deleted files and tried to do what I could until 2am. The next day I took my laptop to work and starting comparing it to my desktop...the viruses had also taken over my security center! The virus set-up a fake security center that looked just like the real one (I do have to give kudos to whoever came up with this virus-it's very sophisticated)! Finally, after downloading some new and REAL anti-virus software and 43 infections later; my computer is somewhat back to normal. I'm still tweeking a few things. Well, after this I had learned my lesson so I put the same anti-virus software on my desktop at the Y. The installation, however, did not go as smoothly. For some reason I had to change some of the proxy settings on my desktop that I did not have to do on my laptop and it took several hours of trying different things (including uninstalling and reinstalling it) to figure this out! I've also been helping my co-worker set-up her new computer (that she had to get b/c her's completely and totally crashed) and since she now has Vista, certain things, like installing printer drivers, have proved to be almost as annoying as the viruses! AAAAHHHHHH! Also, I had to recover my computer to a previous day and time, which was Sunday and I believe this has also caused some bills I scheduled that day to be paid to be deleted and now I have a late payment on one! I am just sooo frustrated! Now, I am trying to get this issue cleared-up and Clark is sick with what I'm not sure, but I'm sure it's either...yep you guessed it; bacterial or a virus!
