I know I haven't been around lately..but I somehow managed to get a nasty trojen horse that took over my hard drive. GRRRRRR...had to totally reformat my hard drive including the master boot record...GRRRRRRRr again..lmbo. Anyways..I purchased a top of the line virus scan and firewall...now I'm trying to config the dang thing..lmbo..leave it to gateway to make this difficult...hee hee.
Anyways..I should be back up and typing my chubby little backside off real soon.
Huggz to all, and miss ya'll dearly.

Hey we miss you too....Spirit.....:) will be nice to see your posts again....:)
We did miss you!!
I know how frustrating the whole thing with the computer can be. I had something similar happen last summer and I had to reformatt my hard drive and all that.
So glad to have you back and I'm happ things are ok with you...
So glad you're back, spirit!!!!!
You may want to take a look at a drive imaging program
It takes a picture of your Hard drive and stores it on a cd or another hard drive
When you have a problem like that you can have your computer back up and running in about 10 min.
I use Drive Image myself by Power Quest
http://www.powerquest.com/driveimage/
Been using it for 2 years now.
I completly restore my computer every 2 week on average to get rid of all the crap that accumulates.:D
Welcome home spirit. I to have been absent lately. I started a new job, that keeps me really busy. And the hrs are long. But, the up side is I now have insurance and can get back on my meds....
