so something is up with my computer, again... if anyone would like to share tyheir wisdom on the subject, feel free... ok so i start up and everything is going fine for a little while. then i get a totally blue screen with a message saying i need to restart. i did, but now the display is foggy (sorta like a TV with bad reception). i've never seen this on a computer before. i'm gonna try and restart again, maybe it'll fix itself. if it doesn't, i'll post here again. and on a side note, something really weird is happening with the forums. i try to click on a thread that i've posted in, but it takes me back to yesterday. for instance, one thread had two pages, yet when i click on it, it says it only has three posts. maybe i really do have a virus...
have you tried what everybody always says to do first, update your virus/spyware protection, and run full scans?
ok, so i feel kinda silly now... the display problem was only with my monitor. i feel kinda embarassed. but with the hipforums thing... it still won't let me view the topics for some odd reason. i ran my spybot program, deleted the files, everything... but i doubt that's the problem.
