The Mock Dock

I’m at work.

On a SATURDAY.

I’m here with our trusty IT guy, who is trying to rid my laptop of another viral infestation.  Last night, I went to a news link to read about Pelosicare, and all of a sudden my laptop just sort of froze, and so I forced internet explorer to shut down.  And then I got all of those fake Windows Security alert messages at the bottom right corner of my screen, which I knew were fake because they had typos in them, but whenever I’d try to close them they’d just pop open again.

And THEN, internet explorer started opening up ALL BY ITSELF, to one of the following websites:

1.  porno.org
2.  an ad for viagra
3.  a site with pictures of tons and tons of boobies

Now, I realize there may be many people who wouldn’t consider that annoying, and would likely enjoy it.  I, on the other hand, WAS TRYING TO MOCK STUFF, and it was really cramping my style.  Hence, the total lack of mockery last night after the Britney boobie post.

So anyway, the IT guy is trying to run a bunch of anti-virus software on my laptop right now while I play on a community computer here in the office.  And you know what I’ve decided?  I’ve decided that anyone who busies themselves with creating computer viruses should be shot.  There should be death penalties for virus creators. 

If you happen to be a virus creator, and you’re reading this post, I would like you to know that I hate you.

Hopefully, my laptop is fixable – but if not, I’ll be less posty this weekend until my IT guy can devote more time to it next week.  I do have the mac at home, but if I’m on the mac, I’m not in the same room as boys, and I like being in the same room as my boys.

Wish me luck!
