Ugh

I'm back. Regular posting will resume from here out.

I was going to talk about the whole mess, but right now I'm just too close to it for anything like reasonable analysis. The whole thing was, more often than not, hampered by massive ineptness, and I wish to God I could blame someone other than myself. Sadly, this is not the case.

From what my brothers and I have gathered, I might have bad mouthed Viewpoint when Viewpoint was not at fault. It is entirely possible it came on my computer by legitamite means, and the update I mistook for intrusion. The additional problems (i.e. the lack or Add or Remove) might have been a part of an earlier problem (back towards the end of June.)

I don't know.

What I do know is that my computer is much better now, I have no Viewpoint anywhere on the silly thing, and I feel incredibly dumb. Which is typical, when it comes to computer thingy mabobs.

I'd like to thank hbrennan for his offer of help. Unfortunately by that point I had gone through my first reformatting. (Again, don't want to go there right now.)

I also want to thank beckoningchasm for the advice and good will.

Now back to work.

going to need a couple of books on computers... not computers for dummies... maybe compters for absolute idiots... nah, too advanced...
