At least, my computer is. Enough so that the site of my computer flying through the window has become very attractive. As it is, my c drive takes great pleasure in uploading porn sites only to later flash a message that it could ruin my marriage, my career, my life. Well Ah! on them. I wait until they're halfway through and I cancel. Ah!Ha! Anyhoo, I'm not gone for long, if at all. It depends on my ability to wipe my computer clean and start over without breaking it. Patient, I'm not! Until then, my darling visitors, don't give up on me...

A beautiful capture, and what a glorious colour!
Hope you get your comp sorted, It's more than annoying when things like that happen!

Mandy from South Africa
How lovely L.....and I really hope your PC comes right!!!! Those porn sites are an absolute headache...I don't get it on my PC - but my piano teacher does and it drives her dilly!!! :)

@Mandy: Thanks Mandy, it just happened a few months ago out of the blues and Idon't know how, I've never accessed any of these site, they simply don't interest me....hope your piano teacher gets rid of hers without having to undergo mass destruction LOL You play piano? wow! Is there anything you can't do?

@Janice Thomson: Thanks darlin' hopefully I'll be back soon as will my kitten, my poetry, my nutty blog ;)
Viewfinder from Bradenton, United States
Beautiful photo.
I hate that these porn morons have gained an uninvited niche in our computers. I get the solicitations from Africa or India or some other far away place, to get rich quick and just send my account number and they'll inject untold wealth into my bank account. Right...
Good luck for a clean, clean sweep.

@Viewfinder: Thanks VF, I wish there were ways to really aggravate them, I'd be pleased to do it LOL Thanks for your comment, I appreciate it :)
Craiger from Vacaville, California, United States

Stunner from Kingston, Jamaica
LOL! A flying saucer was the first thing that came to mind! Nice work.

@Stunner: Thanks Stunner, I don't like it but it reflected my mood well ;)
Damon Schreiber from Toronto, Canada

e. from Washington DC, United States
Good luck! If you need help with that, I'm a huge techie and have cleaned out thousands of computers so feel free to drop me a line.
20 Oct 2007 6:59pm
@e.: Really e., now you tell me ;)...It's okay, I had do re-install everything but next time I'll know who to call ;)
Richard_Irwin from Belper, United Kingdom
Good 'UFO' shot, the colours and style are just right.
I think its time to increase your Firewall security, and keep out the rubbish thats trying to get in. Hope it all goes well, and the re-install or whatever you do works smoothly
20 Oct 2007 9:50pm
@Richard_Irwin: Thanks a lot Richard, I've re-installed and now it's gone away ;)
but I still need to purchase something to prevent it from ever coming back!
[terrorkitten] from Bath, United Kingdom
Lorraine! Make it quick if I don't see you on a daily basis I will lose the will to live! I hate the format and re-install stuff...sucha waste of time. Will be good in the long run...let me know if you need anyhting
20 Oct 2007 10:35pm
@[terrorkitten]: LOL All done Phil, no worries ;)
Rebecca from Leicester, United Kingdom
Really beautiful colour in this one. Love these tones, dear lady! And I’m so sorry to hear those vile PC invaders have attacked yours too! Good friends of ours had to replace their PC when they experienced something similar; again they never ventured to those sites and are pretty sure that those vile things came through when they opened an innocuous-looking email which turned out to be spam after all (too many of those nowadays, methinks!! an absolute plague on all of us they are!!); really hope yours can be salvaged and/or replaced without financial loss to you, dear Lorraine. May I also say thank you so much for your very kind words at my blog today. I truly appreciate all your thoughts and words!!
20 Oct 2007 11:46pm
@Rebecca: Hey Rebecca, all wiped out, all fixed and thanks so much for your encouragement :)

Computers..who needs them!? :-) ... if a virus or spyware might be worth using AVG (free) ..... http://free.grisoft.com/doc/29116/us/frt/0 .
Like the joke.... :-D

Jasp, that's night, who needs those incredible pain in the butt addictive techie stuff, oh woes are mine!!! Many, many people have recommended AVG, so I bought the stuff, I wanted the best. But after 5 hours of downloading (I'm getting high speed soon) I found out that I needed to upgrade the performance of my computer for it to work.So I cancelled. Glad you liked my joke ;)

Given your predilection for obliterating all traces of your blogs and starting over it should go well with your computer.
