Babbling on and on....
Jan. 15th, 2009 07:12 pmSo, the medical mystery continues. Yesterday, I had blood work drawn that showed that at SOME time, I've had a clot and it is/has breaking/broken up. Today Mrs. CB took me in for my CT scans and we both expected for me to be admitted for blood clots in my lung.
The CT was negative for clots. We were stunned!
Good because no one wants to have clots in the lung; bad because we still have no idea what's going on. The blood tests did show some sign of inflammation. Who knows?
My desktop has been invaded by Spyguard 2009- a nasty worm. I am probably going to have someone come to the house to get rid of it. Normally I could do it manually, but my task manager has been "disabled by administrator" and uh, I would be the administrator and I never did that, nor do I know how to undo it. Suggestions other than tossing the CPU out the window?
It's fucking cold! The 2-4" of snow predicted yesterday was more like 7-8". Mrs. CB was out shoveling at 4:30am because even though she took the day off, she needed to go in to leave instructions for her sub. She has tomorrow off but is taking me to work. How sweet!
Wow, that plane in the Hudson! Surreal. Glad everyone made it out okay.
Gotta work this weekend :( but I'll get a 3-day next weekend. Have to schedule the PC guy for that day. Also need a haircut.
Stay warm!

Manual removal instructions: http://www.spywarevoid.com/remove-spyguard-2009-spy-guard-2009-removal.html
Have a go at that if you're keen. Paying someone to do it will result in them googling it like I just did and probably just following those instructions.
Try installing Spybot Search & Destroy and then run a full scan. It's looking for and blocking security software so it may not let you, but it's worth a shot.
If you get no-where with any of that, try a Windows Repair by booting from your Windows disk, that may overwrite the affected security files.
Absolute last resort, format the bastard and blow it all away and start again with a fresh install of Windows. Ultra painful and you'll want to back up your stuff first.
Hope that helps a bit, drop me a line if you want to clarify anything, I'm happy to help :)
