Intuition proves out!

Just got an email from Yahoo concerning Yahoo Messenger and that virus that destroyed my other computer. I haven't reinstalled it because I wasn't sure if my account/files/whatever might still be 'dangerous' - turns out I was right. The tech person said there was no guarantee that I couldn't infect my new machine by reinstalling YIM - so he suggested using "Yahoo Messenger on the Web" - not as many bells and whistles but I can chat with people just the same as with YIM. Which suits me just fine. So I'll be signing up for that instead.

Just goes to show - sometimes being dumb about techno stuff leads one down the right path anyway. :D

FFNet going bananas?

The last few days, I've been trying to keep track of the new stories on FFNet for both A-Team show and movie - and my God - it's maddening! I don't know if the slew of new writers haven't figured out the posting method, or if FFNet itself is having massive technical difficulties. First a story is listed, but click on it and it's not found - then later it's found, then disappears again, only to show up later - and sometimes with a whole new post date. Chapters don't show up on the drop down - but do if you click on "next" - or they just aren't there when they should be. And this is on both show and movie lists. Anyone finding this on other fanfic lists over there? It's just incredibly frustrating and confusing...
