I've got a 2 TB NAS on my network right now, but I'm actually looking at installing MacOS server and going to a 20 mbit downstream 2mbit upstream static IP connection so that I can have a more robust network server, iCal server, and move some of my mail and hosting services in house.

Yeah, mine is 2TB, too, but I'm running it mirrored, so I only actually have 1TB of space.

I haven't done much in the way of server functionality; it's really just dead storage space right now. Although I am streaming the Napster tracks off it to the house sound system.

And my actual connection to the rest of the world is still tenuous with the cellular modem, so I couldn't do hosting stuff, much as I'd prefer to.

Seeing as how I can't get them to lay cable out to me, or for that matter pots, I don't suppose I'll be able to convince someone to lay fiber or even just anything dedicated. Hee. Yay, rural life.

I have an external hard drive that I sometimes remember to plug in and Chronosync important things.

...

I should possibly develop a more robust system, but I don't really have that many critical files, other than school stuff which tends to live on a flash drive anyway.

Yeah, I'm 2 TB mirrored, so would be 4 GB of space otherwise.

So I think I have a virus, but neither AVG nor Malwarebytes find anything fishy with my system.

Crap.

I ran System File Check, and it identified four or five DLLs that needed replacing, but I don't have a Windows XP disc to feed it. Windows came installed on my computer, but I didn't get the discs, I don't think. I can't find them.

I'm going to try System Restore, but I don't think that's ever worked for me. In the past, it always tries and says that it was unable to take me back to the Restore point. I did notice, however, that a Windows Update came in Sunday night, and the first time I noticed the problem was Monday night. And I am fairly certain that I was able to open a file from My Recent Documents on Sunday morning. So I don't know if a Windows Update could actually be responsible, but it's a strange coincidence.

I forgot my alarm clock wasn't part of OS X. Anyone have a recommendation for a good free one? I want to be able to set multiple alarms, and set them for custom days like one for every Saturday and another for every Wednesday through Friday.

I used to have an unassuming one that lived in that thar menu bar, but I don't remember the name. I grabbed Apimac Timer, but it looks like you can only have one alarm at a time, either once-off or daily. Nice that it allows you to specify the message read aloud.

I wonder if this would do it?

That's perfect! Thank so much.
