Grrrr.
Hiya snails.
Well, Mickysoft's last windows update for 8.1 messed something up. Been getting errors since the 4th.
Of course, it's now more or less insisting that I upgrade to Win 10. I've avoided it so far, and could continue to do so, but it's auto-checked in Windows update. And once I tried to reinstall OTHER 8.1 updates, and didn't catch the auto-checked thing, it's going to pester the heck out of me until I upgrade.
I think I'll bite the bullet, so it quits annoying me. But, it's going to be a long night.
So I MIGHT be able to get back, but if not, I'll say "goodnight" to you all now. Goodnight!

Wish me luck. Particularly with removing some spystuff and also with using FF, along with getting it to work in general.
I have trepidation, but the pester-update won't go away (I assume). Grrrrrr
