    I need computer virus guru!

    I also switched from McAfee to MS Security Essentials. Tried to install Firefox, but it crashed - I think it's another Win 7 x64 issue. Will add Spybot to my tools. Many thanks to you and everyone else who has responded.

    btw, I think if we could just take a couple of these virus writing people and hang them in public, it might slow them down a little.

    I need computer virus guru!

    Aargh!!! The guy who tried to help me recommended Windows Security Essentials, so I'm using that now (scanning daily). I looked at AVG, but comments indicate that it still has some problems with Win 7 x64. So much for being on the tech edge. I do have everything on a stick so I can run...

    I need computer virus guru!

    Well, I did start over ? the dreaded ?recover to delivery status? routine. I had gotten to the point where it wouldn?t start in safe mode, so I gave up the hunt. I had previously scanned with Malwarebytes, and windows malicious, and others and had found files which were quarantined. I did...

    Lowering the speed limit on 30A?

    We don't need to cast this in liberal vs. conservative terms, no matter how tempting that may be from RobertsonDavies' posts. It's really a lot simpler. He wants the county to accomodate him in a money-making scheme. Money for him, inconvenience for the vast majority of vacationers and...

    Lowering the speed limit on 30A?

    <rant mode on> Getting tired of these things already. I don't buy all the environmental posturing. That's a cover for wanting to make a buck renting and selling them. Meanwhile, you've got self-indulgent folks like this, having a good time and inconveniencing everyone else. <rant mode off>

    New construction on S. Gulf Drive - Seagrove

    Owners totally cleared the lot and then brought in unapproved sand. Stop work order was posted at the lot noting those two issues. As far as I can tell, neither problem was addressed. Now a house is under construction on the too-dark sand. Anyone know about this property - how and why...
