crazyfurriesWell, tried surfing Real Life Comics and something funny happened to my lovely Ion (aka my little green laptop). It started running very funny and wouldn't allow me to shut off properly. This was a sign.
Since restarting it I realized that my soundcard driver was gone, and i've been randomly getting linked or having tabs pop up on firefox to some spam medication/medical sites. I get error sounds but absolutely nothing else, and considering I use this laptop to score my favorite music and mp3's, that ain't cricket.
Then again this could just have easily come through one of LJ's freaking java ads, considering that FF 4.01's adblocker only just got out.
And it's closing the barn doors after the horses have gone at this point, but I think I'm going to be bringing Ion into Best Buy to get it looked at.
