Computers

I was'off line' for most of yesterday' until about 9 pm last night. Then, I was so frustrated with this computer that I just shut down!  Bah computers!

I was trying to work on my e-Reader yesterday downloading some free uploads from a few sites and also tried to do some downloading of some music. I somehow got on the Imesh site and must have allowed it to become my main page because from that point on ... I had caos on my computer. There was a battle going on inside with the 'little guys' as my Internet Explorer did not want to give up ownership of the hard drive and thus shut itself down! (that's my explanation).

Anyway, my neighbor came over and spent about 2 hrs trying to UNinstall Imesh from all the places it attached itself. It was too much for me to take in. I am not even sure now what he did! He was getting frustrated himself so I know things were not going well. However, long story short, he was able to UNinstall and delete and he REinstalled Internet Explorer even though I did not find my operation disk for him to install it. He copied it from our downstairs computer. What a process.

All this time I thought I was covered by Norton through our other computer. Alas, silly me, I was not and still am not so definitely need to do that this morning. No more searching out sites until I get that done! Did I say, bah humbug yet?
