From the Management

A slight delay of things this morning.  My overnight anti-virus run found an infection, and after quarantining it suggested rebooting the computer and running a boot-time scan.  I also take such suggestions because...well, it's smart.  It's also slow.  A boot-time scan checks your system before Windows loads.  So, unlike most scanning, it doesn't run in the background while you work, but you get to watch a lovely black and white screen with gibberish running across it.  For three hours.



Fortunately, I eventually realized I have a back-up laptop, but still...



It found a few other infections and quarantined them, though I'm not 100% that everything got cleaned out, so I'm running another system scan with several other anti-malware programs I have, just to be sure.  (It's good to have several, since they all search differently, and therefore find different things.)



But we are at least up and running.
