So yeah, I went out with this one chick about a week ago and so I gave her a couple follow up calls and at first things were goin’ good, she seemed to lead me on a lil bit and acted interested but then she kinda bailed and stopped answering her phone or returning my calls. So obviously she’s trying to send a message and all but I was thinking that it would be kinda fun to see how long it would take her to be strait forward and tell me off herself, instead of just playing the hiding game. So I plan to just keep calling her or texting her and leaving messages until she finally answers and tells me like it is. My guess is that it won’t happen until sometime next week. One of my friends says that by this weekend something will have happened. I guess we shall find out sooner or later!

The other day I got a file from one of my Chilean friends from overseas asking me what I thought of her picture. I felt kind of sketchy about opening it because it came in a folder, instead of a smaller picture that you normally see when people upload photos to your msn. So yea, I opened the stupid thing and sure enough, the problems arose. It immediately spammed everyone else on my MSN contact list and offered them the same myspace picture file. Then it closed down all of my chat windows and disallowed me from chatting with anyone else. I was forced to log off and log back on in order to be able to chat with anyone else. When I did log on again, about 20-30 mins later it would spam everyone on my list again, trying to upload them the virus. One of my friends accepted it and fell into the same hole as me. Since I figured it was probably a trojan, I began downloading cleaning agents as well as virus removers. I tried about 6 or 7 different ones, accessing them in safe mode, deleting suspicious files, and everything else you can think of, only to no avail. Nothing seemed to work and I felt left with only one option; reformatting my comp, somthing I did not wish to do at that time. So before pulling the plug, I remembered there was one virus scanner I hadn’t tried yet, Norton, so I found a free 2k4 15 day trial and gave that a shot. Surpisingly enough, the Norton Anti Virus was the only one that was able to pick up the trojan horse. It makes me wonder if the virus came from the Norton Anti-virus, and it was their own little scam to get people to suscribe to them. Anyhow… I’m just glad that I don’t have anyone spying on me anymore and things are back to normal, for the time being.

Going to spend this weekend at yellowstone and do some sight-seeing. I’ve never been there before so hopefully it’s as good as everyone makes it out to be. I want to see me some bears or wolves fight some other animals I’ll post some of the pics I take and tell you how things worked out.

The name’s Rich and this blog of mine will be focusing on predicted and actual research of what is being done about human advancements for our future. Some of the topics posted may be fact or fictional, but I will allow you, the viewers, to decide on what you think. In a number of days I will begin the postings so don’t be disappointed that the content is lacking now :O
