Y'all think it was bad!

This whole past week, every day starting in early afternoon and running til even midnight, I would be unable to reach almost any site on the internet. I could reach here---but NOT all the time.

I figured there was some backbone or spine problem; and then Katrina. The outfit I get my DSL thru is in Louisiana! So I've tried to be really p-a-t-i-e- n-t (ask Hal just how well I rank in patience!). Today, after pruning back some wild roses, I came in, got pissed, and called my local guys. THey are really good fellas. But neither was available--they actually are phone company people anyways.

So, I just figured what the hell, and called the toll free number back in LA. Got the nicest sounding cajun accented gentleman's voice. I explained what was happening--and what is weird is that my mail is not interrupted. So he says something like, let's play detective. And we went through a bunch of stuff with IE, and then with typing in some alternative preferred and alternative dsn (???) numbers.

Poor Hal.........he's been calling every night this week cause I couldn't get to yahoo or whatever.

Turns out that I apparently have some conflict between all the damned virus programs, firewall programs, bug programs, spyware, programs, and general purpose keep the computer clean programs! Sheesh..........I dunno but what a damned virus wouldn't be better than having a dozen programs to fight the 'unknown'.

But now, it seems I can get to all the places I want to go on the internet--- and then some.

NOW, for the kicker.........I was so deelighted that it was working I tried to get into 4um this afternoon! About the third time I tried, after clearing the 'blue air', I remembered Neil was doing an upgrade! :(
