The same thing happened to me. My son found some sort of virus in my computer and tried to delete it. He deleted EVERYTHING. He felt soooo bad. I had to 'phone' everyone to email me so I could get their addresses, make new spread sheets for my use and a club I belong to, find everything I ever had on my favorites. But to tell the truth it wasn't that hard. Good luck!
KKD please E Abby. I really need to get some info from her fopr the 13th. ALL is lost at the moment and I think I'm kinda smart with these confusers too.
I'm starting to think a virus my NOD32 isn't catching. Each time I reboot, more crap is wrong. Getting afraid to shut down. I now disconnect my modem power so the machine can't talk to the net in case it's become a zombie computer ona zombie net. There is a new very bad, very hard to get ridof worm out now. You actually nee a second clean computer running all updates and anactive AV to go in and fix the infected com puter. Looks like the laptop gets pulled out for this. Just a mess
Can you try to start in safe mode to prevent the virus/worm from loading, then do an online panda scan, trend micro scan, or Kaspersky scan to "clean house?"

ReplyDeleteOooh. I had a hard drive freeze up. Everyday I mourned a little more as I thought of yet another thing I lost. So, do I back up now? Heck no...
