The Grey Information

I have nothing special to say today, it's a very normal day today. I have emails to write and I should do it as fast as possible, I hope I can at least find the patience in me to write one today. I have received a few caring and interesting emails, from some people (two) and I now I feel bad about being late. I dont get a lot of caring emails, so it's special... Nothing more can be said here today... There is a birthday cake on the kitchen table right now and it's not for me... I hate birthdays, so I dont want to talk about it. People get older and they will eventually die and I dont like that. I'm a very pessimistic person. Why?...

There were something I wanted to write here, but other things suddenly became more important. When I got on my computer last night, I found a problem with my Outlook Express and it made me stress with my computer the rest of the night. What happened was; I tried to read my email, but the Outlook Express didn't open, instead I got one of these typical error messages that you get sometimes in Windows. The good thing about these error messages is that it usually isn't anything serious (or so it seems), mostly it just closes your browser windows. When I had Windows 98 I remember it sometimes turned off the computer as well and the message was always; "You have performed an illegal operation". The really good thing about the XP is that when this happens you can click the send button and give the Windows people an automatic message about the error. Sometimes you get a Windows update message a few days later and often it seems to be updates about different small problems. I dont know if it do any good, but overall XP is a lot better. Anyway, when I got this error on the Outlook, I clicked the send button, to send the automatic error message complaint and at once I received a small file to download, that was going to correct the problem. I thought, ah, this is great. I downloaded it and it submitted itself to the right place without me doing anything. I then clicked the Outlook again and I then received a different error message, two different once after eatch other. I went and read in the Windows help files and did everything I possibly could to correct it, but nothing seemed to help. I got my Windows CD and updated everything in my Windows and tried again, nothing worked.

I then realiced today, that the problem came from the protection I had put on all my files the other day. I wanted to find the hidden JS.Seeker that was said to be on my computer, Norton didn't manage to delete it, in the process I made the Outlook behave like this. I turned the protection thing off and now it works as usual. However there seem to be some damages left on the adress book, so I cant write emails in Outlook, I have to do in Yahoo webmail, until I get it fixed. I was pretty nervous about the whole thing, because I thought it was the JS.Seeker that brought these errors about, I found out from reading different help sites online that a lot of people had had the same problem and gotten it fixed easily. Anyway, I hope I figure out how to get the adress book working again... This was just a really boring entry, I know.
