spyware sucks

OMG. I hate spyware.

I was trying to look for Jamie Cullum lyrics on some site and then… BAM! Pop-up after pop-up after pop-up… and then something seemed to be downloading onto my computer and I couldn’t stop it! ARGH. $#@! Stupid lyrics site. I’ve run both Adaware and Spybot and the weird toolbars/unwanted programs seem to have gone away but I still have the occasional pop-up. Anyone know what else I can do?

Spyware sucks. Thank goodness my laptop is still safe from evil. For now.

I spent the entire weekend watching my West Wing season 1 DVDs. *sigh* So good. I watched 19 episodes in 2 days! I’m a little pissed though because the 4th disc doesn’t work. Grr. I wanted to check out the special features but when I put the disc into my DVD player, it made a really weird noise and then “No Disc” appeared on the screen. I tried to play the disc on my laptop as well but the same thing happened. Fabulous. Now I have to package the darn thing and mail it back to Deep Discount DVD, which is kind of a pain. I’ll have to wait another week or so to get the replacement set. I guess this is why I should just buy my DVDs from a normal brick and mortar store. No waiting.

I also managed to watch the series premiere of Desperate Housewives on Sunday night and I really, really liked it. Great, another TV show to watch regularly. Heh. I read that it did well in the ratings — if the ratings stay consistent or get better, I wonder what’s going to happen come January when Alias is slated to return to the timeslot? Will they move one of the shows to a different timeslot? Should be interesting.
