re: #691 reason0911

this is a non-sequitur. I have experienced the effects of viruses and until someone comes up with some other hypothesis about why my pc is on the fritz, I’ll have to assume they do exist. But if someone comes up with an alternate explanation to my computer problems, I’m certainly open to listening. This seems second nature…I’m really surprised by your response.

Could just be malware…you could have a bunch of invalid registry keys, so your system is constantly trying to resolve pointers to data which no longer exists on your hard drive…or maybe it’s time to trade in that 286 for a newer machine.
