Harold, I am guilty of the Secunia posts as well, I usually
look to see
what Clint posts so I don't do a duplicate, but sometimes
we post
different entries.
Using your computer is as full of problems as anything else.
I have
problems with programming which sometimes gets caught by
other
programmers or bots and are reported to Secunia, sometimes
not :( The
computer is like my garden and bugs and birds causing
problems or the
transmission in my van, it needs attention and care on a
regular basis
and if it doesn't get it then it won't perform well when
expected.
As for your Instant Messenger, I've used it on and off
again for 5 or 6
years and have not once had any problems with it nor have
any come
through it. Same with the Yahoo, AOL, and others, unlike
email <groan>,
and now there is blogging as well for keeping in touch with
others and
that gets it's own share of problems too.
I don't like stress either Harold but those 2000 odd
pumpkin plants and
some sour cherry trees on my property are going to bring
some stress
soon enough. But working through the stress will enable us
to enjoy the
fruits (no pun intended) of our labours. Too bad Secunia
doesn't have
anything for sour cherries :(
