After loosing my telephone service for most of March, and the Internet sporadically for the same period - I lost my PC to what is known as "The Mexican Virus".
Some evil cunts in Mexico target those of us who can't afford to upgrade the abandoned Windows XP [ thanx a fuckin bunch Microsoft ].
Lost the fuckin lot .................all my documents, files and most of my pix. ALL my e-mail address contacts [ those who do, please do again ].
PC is shot - needs stripping the hard drive and starting over. A pal loaned me an old lap top, which has taken me ALL day to connect to the Internet, due to it having been last upgraded in 2009 ! OH YES, plus I'm the World's worst computer dummy.
They also tried to wipe out my bank account [ on-line banking - secure??? -NO FUCKINWAY ], fortunately saved by the fact that I've got a fuck all overdraft facility.
And just when things were swimming along nicely ...................................
Oh yes - I was in Photobucket when the virus worked it's way in.
