So not good at the waiting game...

At least not when it comes to waiting to see if my computer is clean or not!!! UGH!!!

Yeah, this is in regards to waiting for a reply about my logs I submitted... I only wish they could send a private message to let me know that they are looking into it. :confused ... but I understand they are working on others too.

Don't mind me... I just a bit anxious to find out if I got things cleared or not.

I'm to the point that I'm backing up my files on to DVD... & ready to wipe the hard drive clean & start back from the start.

Oh... but I'm afraid if I do that... that when I start loading stuff again, I maybe back to where I am now!! UGH!!!

So not good at waiting for stuff like this!! :major

 

Sit back,put your feet up, and breath deep.Slow and calm. Think nice thoughts.
You'll be fine.

 

During the day? :eek Do you know what the sun can do to you?!?!?

 

I know the feeling... I have to wear sunglasses even when it's raining. (well, unless it's really dark & raining!)

I have had my days & nights mixed up for a few weeks now.
rolleyes :-D :cool
As for waiting... is there anyway to find out who is working on my logs... if yet? & If not... where am I in the queue?

I ask this because I see a few after mine already given something to work with...

Just making sure I wasn't overlooked... (I so want to go to the thread to ask... but am afraid it would be considered bumping the message.)

Can you tell, I'm anxious?!?! rolleyes :innocent

 

Ok who is this impostor what what have they done with the real emma LOL

 

Ahh... I thought Chaslang was just giving tips to keep going... didn't know he was the one assigned to my thread. (Because TimW has replied (moving the one to that thread) & wasn't sure if that was THEM being an admin... or helpers... or what?

Thanks... I'm waiting Trying to at least! LOL! :cool

 

Trust me, it will be worth the wait. There is NO ONE better than Chaslang to help you douche your machine, believe me. These guys really know their stuff.
And they are helping multiple people at the same time.
Please follow their instructions to the letter, and you'll be pleasantly surprised at the outcome.
Best of luck.

 

Ok... I just was worried that with TimW posting last that Chaslang may think Tim is working on it... or even vice versa! Just didn't want to be caught in the middle... You know... can't go & ask on the thread who is actually working on it! LOL

btw Gensuknives... Love your avatar (where'd you get it?)... & your signature.... roflmao :wave

 

Thanks. To be totally honest, I don't remember WHERE I came across that one. And as far as the sig goes, I REALLY can't cough right now, since I broke 3 ribs last week in a fall.
Hang in there ------ they'll clean up yer machine.
Feel free to use the avatar whenever. It isn't mine. I just "borrowed" it from someone else.

 

Your avatar came from MG's stock avatar file in the user CP.

 

Ouch! May I ask how did you break 3 ribs?? & I was going to ask why still tough to cough... but then I remembered how long it took me to heal from a back injury!!! That's rough!!

As for the avatar, IF I were to use it... would only be to put it in one my blogs. I'm always looking for fun pictures like that!

& Thanks to the one after you (forget the name already) to let me know it's from the UCP collection

 

Wow some people are really paranoid over a machine...

 

Yeh, I don't need to wait around having to constantly get it fixed

 

Actually research shows that more and more people are buying Macs, and I've noticed around schools and universities that more and more people are buying them - partly because they look the tits and partly because they run perfectly.

Anyway, I'm not starting a Mac-PC debate, I'm off to bed as I'm up for work in 6 hours! :-D

 

Stir it up, then get out of the kitchen.

 

Yep, true

But, as more people buy them more & more vulnerabilities come to light and yet Apple still don't endorse using any anti-virus/malware software.

It seems things are slowly changing in the Mac world?

At least there are lots of resources available for windows users (such as this site) dealing with malware in the the online world.

How many Mac malware experts are there out there?

Thank you Tim... as mentioned in that recent one... I was worried it was overlooked... after seeing both you and Chaslang have worked on others that were submitted after the time you merged the one thread.

I hope that with my long ramble on the thread you've closed / deleted that you can appreciate why I was concerned.

As for posting in the Malware section... I have other questions... but I'm not sure if it's related to my current situation. Plus I have some opinion questions I'd like to ask about AV software... Do I need to wait to ask ALL them questions until Chaslang reviews my logs? Or can I post them in a new thread?? Either in Malware or in software... or here in the lounge??

Let me give a brief explanation as to why I ask... Since all this started I've come across so many different things that has posed many questions in my mind... So, I don't know what to do...

See my conundrum??

Ok... & again, I sincerely apologize for my exasperation over this... but I hope that in that one thread it's clear as to why.

btw... I do feel better that you have reassured me that Chaslang IS my helper & has my thread in his queue... (Can you see why I was concerned, though??)

Thank you... & I'll stop for now! LOL

 

Hmmm... now that makes sense! & gives me a good reason why I don't need a Mac. LOL

Joke all you want... This thread was started mainly because I was (still am) being over anxious & needed some distraction!!

I too believe in karma... but also have faith!! (If that's possible!) :cool

Woot!! my 1st double quoted reply!! I am proud of myself!! :dancer LOL

 

THIS makes me feel MUCH better!! Thank you!! ...
btw... I seriously was not trying to push mine to the front of the line... just was worried it was overlooked. But feeling better about it now. :cool

Ok... will do... I'll post the AV question in a bit... & will wait on the others.

Glad to see I have not completely annoyed you!! (I was a tad concerned my constant posting off & on subject may have annoyed you & Chas & others.)

After these replies, though... I am feeling a TON better about how it's all going. Now comes the hurry up & wait game! (Which as by the title of this thread... I not that good at!!) LOL

 

Ok, thanks for this bit of info. (see I was looking at stuff that Chas & TimW had replied to & saw they were started after mine... & that's what caused the concern.) I'll go check it out again... bet I was looking at it all wrong! :-o

Thanks again :cool

 

to LH
If you think you were annoying us , wait until you see some of the other areas.rolleyes
Talk about rambling.:-D

 

Laura
DOMs= Dirty Old Men maybe?

 

DOM=Dirty Old Man :-D

 

Good to see you here Augie.Wanted to ask about if possible to increase output in folding from my machine.

 

I confused too about DOM's?? LOL
My bones have been creaking since I was a teenager... so, I don't think it's a sign of age But it is getting worse now I am 40! :-D

Hey... it doesn't help either that one of ya told me about that 50 message mark!! :-D

What else is a girl to do when all the other stuff she normally does, she's scared to get into ... in fear it may be "captured" by the Trojan infecting her computer??? LOL

Oh... yeah... I keep looking at other peoples problems & it keeps giving me more questions!! *sighs*

 

Wow... those were quick replies! They came in while I was typing mine!

& Laura, I say the same thing... D'oh!! LOL
