At SVS this morning

Waiting for Dr, Vaughn. Grady seems eerily calm about this.

Hello, I need tech support

As some of you know, I've had some virus/performance issues with my computer recently. Norton got rid of a lot of it, but another one got through somehow and slowed me down (Norton fixed it in safe mode). This is somehow related, but I'm not sure how.

Now I can't disable my network connection without my computer freezing. I double-click that network icon in the task bar, click the 'Disable' button in the Properties dialog that appears, and five seconds later the screen freezes. I have not waited around for it to catch up, but it at least stays frozen for the duration it takes me to let loose a string of expletives and adjust my chair so I can reach the power button on the tower.

I *need* to disable my network now and then. I'd rather not just unplug the router in the other room.
