Ha!  Swearware?  -chuckles-

Definitely going to check out that software you linked.  There's probably been a dozen times over the years where I missed some sneaky, so-and-so optional software that they like to gift people with.

Yep, a sense of humor is a lifesaver these days.

Speaking of which:

Harry Potter (my HP computer) is truly free from horcruxes!  Yes!

It goes without saying that if I gave you all the 'thank you's you deserved I'd surely sink the kilobyte capacity of the servers or something.
So I figure for payment I could do something like committ a hundred acts of kindness in your name.
As a bonus--should anyone dislike my acts of kindness and want to call the cops--I can give them GR@PH;<'S name instead.  ;)

You are most welcome, Kyer.  I was very happy to help.  I'll just bet you were able to type GR@PH;<'S from memory too and didn't need to copy/paste!

Yup, swearware -- leftover from ComboFix.  Delfix cleaned up that and an OldTimer file too (his programs aren't being updated either).

BTW, seeing as how December 8 is the second Tuesday of the month, you can expect a likely Flash Player update.  You can set Flash Player to auto-update. Just click Start > Settings > Control Panel > Flash Player.  The setting is in the Updates tab.  Although I have that setting, I don't like to wait for Adobe to get around to updating my browsers so I use the direct download links.  The latest version will be posted here in the Security Alerts & Briefings forum.  No unwanted extras to uncheck with the auto-update or direct download links either.

Um.... [shifty key eyes]... yeah....let's go with the 'no copy/paste'.  Sure.  [thumbs up]


Adobe makes me itch, but so many webpages require their programs.
I should do the auto update considering that my time-honored method of keeping a bookmark for their site (and somehow losing it) was what started this whole mess.  (Missed the last few episodes of The Flash on CW and tried to watch them on their site.  For some reason they suddenly wanted Flash Player 10 or above....and wouldn't let me view the videos.  So I make one error in typing the address....

The rest goes without saying.  It was a stupid thing to do.  I'll blame holiday madness causing lack of sleep.  This caused a lot more lack of sleep.

Silver lining though.... it gave me the extra push to finally log on here again and check up on the latest computer news that I've been neglecting.

Well.... yes, lack of sleep.  Need to rectify that now.

Harry Potter also needs to rest to after all those doctor exams.

:)  Muchas gracias!

Oh sure, I highly doubt Harry Potter is going to get much rest while you catch up on The Flash.  :D
