Man-Cave under Malware repair

F'n malware snuck in to my cpu somehow, uninstalled my virus protector so it could roma free and wound up disabling my computer. The only posts you will see over the next few days are scheduled posts I created over the weekend, but I can't/shouldn't really do a lot on my work laptop (where this post is coming from). Enjoy the next few scheduled posts over the rest of the working week and hopefully I can finish the Dexter Anthology when I am back up and running. And I catch up with all my fav blog posts I am missing.

A friend is supposed to help me repair my laptop tomorrow or Thursday if the malware damage is not too bad. Right now things look BLEAK!

So wish me luck because I could be out of a laptop...

Did you have a Dell? Those ALWAYS messed up on me, and I'd lose everything. I hope that's not the case for you.

Yikes...major suckage. I got one that was trying to get me to buy their stuff. A-holes.

I used this anti-malware bytes...I think and it did the trick.

Yeah, I've gotten nabbed by a virus once or twice myself and my wife (who is awesome with computers) always has to spend a day or two fixing the problem.

No good Geof, I better not catch it through this comment!

Allison - Hewlett-Packard or HP. Which makes me wanna call it "Hot Poop" right now!!!!

Krystyn - Thanks for the tip. I had and used Malware Bytes, which believe it or not caused this mess. I will make sure to post about the whole mess later if anyone was interested.

Chris - This fix is still ongoing. I had to re-format and lost some stuff but not too much because luckily I backed it up.

Carl - lol you can't catch it from my comment, but it can come in through all that porn you're downloading. ;) jk!

Thanks for coming by and trying to help or make me feel better. It had SUCKED to not be able to blog this week. I'm glad I had some posts scheduled so ETMC could produce some activity.
