Got my computer fixed. I only ever have the odd problems. Maybe that's because I always fix the "normal" ones so quick I don't even realize. But this one was strange. Every time I did a google search, something in the system hijacked my results and inserted 3 ads after the first result. That's really annoying. I couldn't figure out where they were coming from. Still don't know. But I suspect some sort of browser helper. I have uninstalled about 4 ad programs from my computer in the last week. Those things just don't go away easy. I have had to mess with permissions, screw with the registry, and all sorts of other fun stuff that I don't like doing because of the dangers inherent. I'm gonna go work on my car now. It's not electronic and doesn't think. It can't possibly annoy me as much... or can it?
