    It's me the lovable, handsome, ED giving my followers a heads-up on my condition. My computer was having some trouble and everytime I logged onto sites/Maple Story it would automatically restart. So had to clean-up my system and get it checked(I did this over the weekend). Now I am not able to get log onto the internet and it also takes longer just to bring up certain pages on my computer. So now I'll have to get re-checked. Sucks huh? To wrap it all up I wont be here for sometime so I'm just filling you people in just in case you all start worry about me. :P

    Until later.

        I've tried that. It's hard to find one that actually works. For some reason I can never seem to get them to work. I was able to log in right now. My dad and I are going to repair it later with some help from one of my dad's co-workers.

          The thing with viruses is that you have to be prepared beforehand. Once they're in there, they can be very difficult to kill. Hopefully, it will never be a problem for me. I have about half a dozen firewalls, virus scanners and spyware detectors. On each of my computers.

          You should, too.

                I was able to get it checked and now my internet is running but some of my data is gone from my computer. I can't log onto Maple Story and such. I guess that's were I picked up the virus.

                  When using online games, its always good to have your firewall running. I almost got my computer hijacked twice from online games.

                    What online games were you playing? Having a firewall on while playing online games can make the game lag.

                        Ah. Yeah, you should be careful with that sort of stuff. As far as free MMORPGs go, you should just stick with MS, and maybe ROSE online. ROSE is probably going to be P2P before long though, if it hasn't already. =/
