Welcome to My World. I spend almost 100% of my time in Hayward, CA taking care of my dad. This is a great opportunity to learn about blogging. This is Jordan Pond in Garin Park off Mission Blvd. in South Hayward.

Computer Virus Attack
We shall see what happens next. First, there is a vicious computer virus attack. My McAfee is supposed to still be valid for more than one more month. After going round and round, we are offered to purchase an anti-virus attack program. The only thing that I can run at this point is my McAfee which keeps declaring everything is fine, no problems. So, finally out of desperation, I agree to pay $69 for this "no-name" anti-virus. Then, it says I must have the Shield, another $79. I am so frustrated because I am under attack and nothing else works. I pony up the money, just to see how big a sucker I can be. My computer is now working, BUT.... the receipts in my email are all no-name. And audio ads show up that I cannot turn off. Not sure what my next step is going to be, or who to turn to. This is very scary. But, hopefully the mistakes I am making now might help someone else in the future. I'll keep you up-to-date with this mystery. I love being on the computer, but this is not fun. The most frustrating part of this, is that I just don't have anyone to ask about this that might have a clue. Sure hope this is not happening to anyone else. Wish me luck.

Hi, I came across your blog while searching the internet for Computer repair. Anyway, usually when computer virus attack happens you can run your anti-virus protection software from the clean boot disk, on the infected disk, and if required fix or delete infected files and replace them on the infected disk.
