Well, that's pretty awful.

My laptop apparently has a massive virus infection, so that may curtail my activity for a while, at least until I can get it to someone who knows a little more about this kind of thing.  What's much worse: I had a bunch of design work and a LOT of .docs that hadn't been backed up yet... I'm going to go cry/drink heavily...  See you in a couple days, VE.  I hope.

That's why you should always backup your files...

Hope it all gets fixed soon!

i back-up once a week, but I guess I hadn't realized just how much I was creating every week...

Okay, now I'm thinking of the tens of thousands of words and scores of .psd files from the past week...

Drat.

I have some experience with virus removal, particularly the more nasty stuff. What OS are you using?

Victory!  We have VICTORY!!!  Virus removed, drive cleaned and backed-up, files recovered.  Returning to active duty as of now.

Well, sadly I lost some .docs and photoshop files in the great plague, so it may take me a day or two to recreate a post, but I DID cook up an introduction and outline/table of contents (and some other choice goodies) for the Writing Clinic project while I was 'puter-less... Should I send a little preview of what I'm workin' on to someone before I move forward with the project?  Maybe a PM to the NHC staff members?

Gosh it's good to be on my own laptop again.

Sent a little sample.  Hope it meets with approval.  Good to be back in action, and good to have a computer again!
