Ad-Aware swears there's nothing wrong. Cable company swears there are no network problems.

Have you checked:

1. Task Manager. Anything new running?

2. Registry. Anything suspicious?

3. The HOSTS file? I can't remember what OS you guys have, but it'd be some variation of C: WINNT System32 or C: Windows System32. You can open it up as a text file. If you see something listed like "127.0.0.1 updates.symantec.com" then you've got problems.

Dana, not to really cheer you up or anything, but I have, on occasion, run into hijack spy and adware that was very thorough and insidious, undetectable and unremovable by Ad-aware. It was only one instance, but the hijacking of the system was so complete, it required serious registry editing.

What's your system doing when you try to surf?

Why oh why must people put corn syrup in every damn thing? t looks at ceasar salad from Au Bon Pan disapprovingly. I don't need my caesar salad tasting sweet! (corn syrup is like the 3rd ingredient in the dressing)

Shit's all sorts of different now.

sumi, I was totally surprised by Zulema being eliminated. While she is definitely half-assed, I thought Kara's dress was total shite. And she did not pay one bit of attention to Tim. AGAIN. I felt awful for Nick, my poor love. And I was dying when Jay went after Santino for using Austin's fabric, because I said the same exact thing when they were in Mood. I did not see the additional footage. Where can I find it?

Corn syrup is the new floride. It's required in order for the new upgrades to the CIA mind-control lasers to work.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

See, I knew the syrup smell was evil.

What is even happening?

No, Sean. That's the MSG. The Corn Syrup is to make us too fat and lazy to fight back.
