I found a video clip on another outdoor website, that had a clip of a guy giving a lecture on gun safety who accidentally shot himself in the foot. I wanted my wife to see the clip so I clicked in the link and played the clip. I normally check for spyware by checking with a program called adaware, and it showed I had a spyware on my computer. When I tried to erase it, it wouldn't erase. I tried my security software and it also wouldn't clear the offending software. I tried without success for about 8 hours. My go back software had been reset to the time I had played the clip. I gave up about 3am, and shut down my computer. Over the next week, little things started to act funny, it kept saying I needed to reload my printer drivers. My Norton security software definitions were wiped out, and I could not clear the problem. I finally had to wipe my entire hard drive and reload all my software. I let the webmaster of the site know, so I think it's been cleared from there, but this guy is likely to try to slip this in on other outdoor sites. It's a very nasty bug, so I wanted to give everyone a heads up. I now get the title of the clip, shooting myself in the foot by playing the clip. Guys like this have nothing better to do than screw with people's computers.

 

THAT's SHOT in the foot

 

[sm=icon_rofl.gif] I have "Fat Finger" disease sometimes, too. Or were you just trying to get people to read your post. [sm=joke.gif]

 

No I don't curse, just trying to type with numb fingers from an injury

 

[sm=sorry.gif] to hear your hurt...that should make DIY stuff a challenge for now. I was just playing you. Hope you're better soon!

 

I fixed the typo

 

Hmm...now my post doesn't make any sense.

 

...and won't offend anyone.
