I was hit by a trojan tonight. No, that's not what made my day. Trust me.

It corrupted my AVG program to where it wouldn't run. I had to reinstall it. So I was vulnerable during the whole time I was doing that, ugh. And even after installing AVG 9 and the trojan was gone, it had messed up my registry to where I couldn't click on links or even change my desktop image. Everything else was frustrating to the point I was nearly in tears. But what really broke my heart is my desktop image was my little furry niece Jing Ling, whom I love so very much. And now my desktop image was just a boring blank white screen. I missed her so much!

And here's where my day was made. I remember having the same desktop problem a few years ago and it was a simple registry problem, which I fixed with little hassle. So I did a quick search, pinpointed my problem and fixed it. It fixed my links, too! And now I can look into the sweet face of Jing Ling on my computer screen again! Hooray!!

And with all the maintenance I did with my computer tonight, it's also running so smoothly and fast now, which also makes my day.
