Good news, bad news

The good news is, I know, without a doubt, that our weekly tape backups have all been good for over a month now, and I won’t even have to do my normal, routine tests to determine that.

The bad news? Well, I think you can probably guess now that you know I spent some quality time searching through weekly tape backups, can’t you?

On the whole though, since I found the information in question, it’s not too bad a tragedy, on the other hand, there’s not enough information avaiable to figure out who needs to learn another lesson, which is always a little disappointing. 🙂

One “innocent” little game came complete with 8 toolbars, 4 startup executables, 3 advertising generators, multiple registry entries, random processes and, ironically enough, an anti-spam program that…

    Angela, beat me to the details of the mystery weekend, including some pictures. I haven’t even offloaded pics from the CF card of my digital camera yet. I’m such a slacker. No, instead I was looking at some interesting things that came across my aggregator while I was sans internet connection. Check last nights postings…
