Just a quick update on the computer mess.. we still don't know the full extent of damage and probably won't for awhile with Greg working so much.. he's the hardware guy, I'm strictly programming lol The major thing we are concerned about is hardware damage, things are all kinds of squirrelly with that machine :( We didn't have a firewall on that computer until after the first hack(that we knew of) which got interrupted when I got a message from norton and I disconnected instantly..we then installed one and have had a ton of hack notices since then. In all my years online nothing like this has ever happened..what has me so "disturbed" tho is the chance that this might be someone I "know"... I am trying to look past this and see only the good things about being online, I haven't made a decision yet on what to do...I do know that I miss everyone and being able to visit everyone and have some giggles.. say a prayer for me ladies! and hopefully I can get things fixed and then be able to start using the computer without being so blasted scared of what might happen.

Wow, you get hack warnings? I bet that totally freaked you out when those came up! Who would want to do something like that anyway??

Hope you get your 'puter fixed and secure so you can come back online and we can entertain each other with the crazy stories our hubbies and kids always seem to generate. *hee hee*

Hey Aretha! I sure hate to hear that someone is hacking into your system. That is so terrible. I just wish that people wouldn't do that sort of thing. I really hope you get things fixed up. Take care! :)

Oh Aretha, I hope you guys get it all fixed soon. I hope it is not someone you know. People can be so cruel, I can't understand why someone could get thrills out of destroying and hurting people. I will add you to my prayer list for a quick recovery on this.
