Hi there ladies, soon I will be off line for a bit :( I have to take this computer to the computer dr :( Everything in my favorites are gone, although they are still in my computer somewhere :) My desktop is gone too, although I know that it is in the computer as well too. This was after cleaning up the disk drive and then defragging the computer. The prompt that I am getting is:

"A performance problem with one or more installed IDE/SATA hard drives has been detected. System restart is highly recommemded." If anyone can help me retrieve these and fix it, please let me know by PM. Otherwise, it will have to go to the computer dr for repair. There are about 9 of these prompt up on my screen at the moment :( ANd All I am doing is closing them out.


Thanks a bunch,
Hugs,
Skeeter

Oh no Skeeter! that sounds like a virus that was going around awhile back.

(and this is probably too late...but...) If it's the virus I think it is (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic405109.html) , it doesn't delete your files, it hides them. Do a system restore,then you'll have to unhide your files ( this program is an easy way to do it. http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/grinler/unhide.exe ) . You'll also want Malwarebytes ( Malwarebytes : Free anti-malware, anti-virus and spyware removal download )to scan your computer and remove the malware

I've been alright, just started my first week of my classes. Luckily they're online so I can be more available for yoga! How have you been??

Do you like your classes so far? Yay we get to see more of you :)

Sorry about your pc :( Not sure what fun it is for people to create viruses that can ruin a computer!!!

sorry i've not been around ladies, I'm dealing with some pretty crappy stuff atm, have had a migraine for 3 days post hives, still have a few hives on my feet :mad: and am waiting on my Thursday appointment. Didn't wanna bring my bad vibes in here.

I'm having to jump on the bandwagon and ask for urgent prayers! Just found out that there is yet another big wildfire. This one is one mile from my Son's house. They have not been evacuated yet, but are on watch and could be at any minute.

Please pray for all affected and for those helping to fight all of these wildfires.

IDK how much more my nerves can take!! Seriously! I was just starting to feel better after all the stress from DD's wreck issues. You know how it goes...we worry about our kids and grandkids.

Raynen, that is so great that you can do online classes. My neice had one of those over the summer and she really liked it. It's nice that it's so "flexible". :)

Skeeter, wow - don't panic just yet, though. I hope you are able to get all your stuff back.

rain, oh my goodness, I'm so sorry you're not feeling well. Please don't let that keep you from coming by for a laugh or two, though, even if you don't feel like posting.

Kay, what can I say that hasn't already been said? The candle has been lit.

Oh, and regarding wildfires....... we have a haze of smoke over the entire area that is being blown down here from the wildfires in Minnesota. Minnesota, of all places!

Thanks for the prayers ladies!

Last text msg from my DIL about 30 min ago said my son went to help a friend that was being evacuated get some stuff and she hasn't heard from him since he left the house. She doesn't know what's going on. He left his cell at home. grrrrr! This is nerve racking!! I assume my son & family has not been evacuated since she didn't say anything about that. Just about my son being gone. My stomach is churning!

Reports are that the fire is currently 2000 acres in size, and there is no word on containment. No known structures damaged, although several subdivisions have been evacuated. No word of any loss of life. Winds have died down some, that will help. At this time the fire is headed away from my son's house, the opposite direction.

So far so good.

Praying the winds get even calmer!!

No rain in the immediate forecast. :(

I am going tomorrow and getting sprinklers and water hoses and we are putting them on TOP of our house & around our house....and letting them run run RUN! :glare:
