The computer glitch fairy is back on duty

Submitted by Adam on June 5, 2006 - 6:30pm.

I mentioned in one of my articles last week that my calls had slowed way down. Whether is was due to JUCO (Junior College World Series) or the holiday or just a lack of computer problems, I don't know.

Whatever the reason was, it seems like people's computers are going nutz in full force. The number of calls today from people needing me to come by their home and fix their computers was in the double digits.

I am writing this just to let everyone know that the computer glitch fairy is out there and she is placing her wand on systems wherever she goes.

She can be thwarted though. I have found that she avoids computers that are running antivirus and antispyware programs. She also avoids systems that are keep cool with plenty of air circulation. She seems to fear computers that are using Mozilla Firefox but she loves computers with Norton Antivirus and AOL.

Be careful and take the precautions we have laid out in our various spyware and security tips on our site.

I also saw that there is a new series of Ronald Reagan stamps coming out on June 14th! Bless the Gipper.

Apple mouse button(s)

re: Adam Cochrans "What I learned this Week" item... on the newer versions, the "one button" mouse actually functions as a 2-button mouse... if you click on the right side of the one button, the right-click functions actually work!
