Driving Test

Aarrrgh! I take my first driving test in about 3 hours! Getting a little bit nervous now. My instructor, Conrad, thinks I should pass, but in the end it all comes down to exactly what happens on the drive. We’ll see, I guess.

In other news, I am proud to say that my PC withstood a viral/adware attack early yesterday evening. I was installing some supposedly-OK software for CD ripping, and it attempted to install about six adware programs, one or other of which included ot one but two distict trojans. My personal blend of anti-adware/spyware/virus software, plus both hardware and software firewalls and a nice little app that asks me before letting anything change the registry, seem to have completely stopped it in its tracks. I followed all their advice, step by step, and when I ran a virus and adware scan after, nothing was picked up. Great!
