my laptop computer picked up a nasty virus a couple days ago....started out with a test that showed up looking for viruses....then an icon of a grey and white shield in my lower right hand tool bar......thats when the fun began....i discovered i had no pics or images on the internet....fixed that by switching browser to Mozilla....then my virus protection started shutting down....started with the updates switched off....fixed that ...then the email protection shut off.....then everytime i fixed one another would shut down....then a white box in lower right corner which would not shut off that read something like "attack on blah blah by blah blah"there were 2 names but can't remember right now....then a large white screen that blocked the center of the screen and couldn't be moved....then it would just lock up and i would have to power down and start over....anyway while trying to erase everything and reload all the operating systems and drivers my optical drive got stuck and had to remove some screws to repair...one screw got stuck and i flipped it over and tapped on it till the screw came out....turns out i may have tapped too hard and damaged the monitor....it's so dark i almost can't see its on....brightening does not help...its all the way up...so i'm sorry but i won't have any pics until i have the laptop repaired....maybe i can use my son's in the meantime....
so whats the deal here? i have a firewall on my wireless and virus protection on the laptop....how did this $#&% get through? it acted like it was looking for viruses and came up with a large # of them but when i scanned with my virus protection it only showed a couple....i let the virus scan run to see where it went and when it ended it wanted me to buy a program to get rid of the viruses.....but it would not tell me who it was and i couldn't find anything on my computer that i could delete to get rid of it....no identification no program...nothing....it appears this virus was sent to f--- with my computer until i bought a program to get rid of the virus it gave me....thanks all you hacker a--holes out there with nothing better to do than waste my time and money...i hope one day you get a serious illness and suffer miserably for all the innocent people you have screwed over...."OH but Mistergee you don't understand we geeks are just getting even for the years of torment you cooler people put us through"...or "it was to get even with all the girls who wouldn't date me"....or "because they fired me"....get a life loser.....
anyway sorry about the tirade....but this is the 3rd time in a year i had to reinstall everything to get rid of this crap.....my wife says its my fault for watching porn what....just because its porn does that mean my computer gets an internet STD?....anyway i hadn't looked at any in a long time and when i tracked the event log it actually started in my daughter and daughter-in-laws cabinets....yep....Utube and Myspace....those are the only 2 places they go on my computer....so beware of those sites guys

so back to finds from 2 days ago
picked up $200 in dimes on Wed.

NADA
but the last bank i was at the teller says "YIPPEE>>..finally getting rid of those things...are you interested in $2 bills?" i said well not really not unless you have any old ones....all of a sudden the other teller runs over and says "i think i have an old one"....now the 2 of them are looking through 2 large piles of $2 bills .....mostly 1976 when teller #2 pulls out a 1953 $2 dollar red seal in great condition....i said i'll take that one....they thanked me and said "come back again we'll hold all the odd stuff and halfs till you get back" why can't all tellers be like that....i'll post pics as soon as i can...HH
