12-I-2009 or 1337?
by Aaron Shurtleff on January 12, 2009
I done got my computer hacked this weekend, which makes me angry. I've been running around today (at work) changing up passwords...which means I'll probably forget most of them, and be using the change password button on most of the places I hang out at to change them AGAIN.
I know that the chances that some ass is using my Facebook account for nefarious purposes is pretty slim, but why take chances, right?
See you all around. Hopefully.
Oh, and if I totally start spewing crap and 1337-speak, it's not me. I am not a haxxor, or whatever they call themselves nowadays (obviously, or I would have gotten so pwned)!
TTYL!!

Why target you? That's just so bizarre. I'm really sorry for all this. I'm so paranoid now. I got Norton and Macafee. I hate both for the system startup slowness but feel a little safer.

I had a firewall active... Apparently the hacker guy took it down, and disconnected the MacAfee, and turned off the Windows Security Center, etc. Plus, it apparently takes them back down every time the computer reboots.
He also had something going on in the background, but I don't know what that was. Some kind of access or something. He was totally in my computer. It's actually a wonder he/she messed up enough that I found out about it.
Got to wipe and start over. That should do it, from what my IT guy says. He said it in the way that it's possible it won't do it, though... We will see.

13-X-2006 or Yeah, yeah, yeah I know what day it is.
Why is it that the sanest people I know (not saying much) always go batsh!t on Friday the 13th? It's a day! Go »8-I-2007 or Mid-week Madness!!!
I have just two things to say, and I will say them loud and proud! 1) I honestly would love to see U. Florida win tonight in the BCS championships. Go »10-IV-2008 or Beavis and Butthead
I'm at work. I took my pill this morning, because I think I forgot to take it last night. From the way I'm feeling now, I think I double-medicated myself. Go »13-VII-2019 or Inappropriate Humor
Good day. I am still really exhausted from my work trip, so another short one. If I were to say only the punchline of an inappropriate joke, assuming said punchline was not itself inappropriate in this out of context way, would it be the same as if I had said the joke? Go »24-IV-2008 or Fallen Angel
I have a post to write, but I'm not sure I can get to it in its entirety before the end of work, so I might just be holding this space for a while. Think of it as an announcement that something is coming later tonight (after kickball). It actually, in some ways, involves kickball. Go »
