the blue screen of death...

       somewhere in the last few days i managed to pick up a nasty computer virus. a trojan, to be a little more specific. i soon found that trying to take care of it with the usual spybot and adaware were not quite enough, so i downloaded another program made for removal of the specific trojan that was infecting the wonderful computer that is my life. this new program worked a little too well. it rooted out all of the infected files (which were many), but unfortunately some of these infected files were necessary for the proper function of said life-giving computer. and it crashed. completely. apparently it lost windows. lol. couldn't find it? i'm not sure. so i reinstalled. when i logged in i found that i had lost everything. everything. all of my music (somewhere around 4,000 songs), all of my digital sheet music, all of my stories, all of my random notes, all of my school work, all of my research, all of my programs ... the list goes on. but i miss the music the most. so i'm currently installing updates and upgrades and drivers up the wazoo. oy. i want to cry now. i hate computers. but i can't live without them.
