# oooh, nice!
By the way, anyone having problems with google? I haven't been able to access any google sites for 24 hours.

# Nope, google seems in fine health.
(And I don't run with a cache so it's not loading from the HDD either.)

It's a terrible multi OS virus that seems to be going around. Spread by some ginger twonk apparantly.

the autostart one, but that was ages ago.
I'm not so smug as to think it will never happen again, just that right now it's unlikely. I do have a firewall and hefty filters on my email client.

I still use OS 7 on my ancient powerbook when I need to take a laptop somewhere to use Word. Athough with it's cica 1993 internal modem, I'd never use it to access internet :)
