The fake AV would not close or even minimize, and yes I tried Task Manager, and my computer wouldn't shut down either so I had to flip off the power strip.
That sucks, smonster. I deal with this a lot, and usually I can remove it by booting in safe mode with networking, updating my antivirus/anti-malware software and running a scan, and editing the registry + dumping all recent and/or temp files.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Roger Miller, who sang/wrote King of the Road is the same Roger Miller who wrote the music for Big River.
He was actually a brilliant, if erratic, songwriter.

What is weird is that, although similarly irrational about grey/gray, I feel just the opposite of quester and Beverly

How do you feel about the gender of numerals?
