I think I have a virus, or some spyware or something causing problems on my computer. I mentioned a while ago about my temp internet files always being ‘full’ and having to clear it out every day…still having that problem…then on Monday I kept getting warnings that I was running low on disc space on my C drive, every time i’d finished clearing out some crap…10 minutes later it’d tell me the same again. Gav dug around and looked through hidden files and whatnot and we worked out that the space was being used by my temp files, 1.5 gigs…even after it was totally cleared out and empty it was still using 1.5 gigs.
So yeah, that explains why it’s always full…there’s obviously something hiding in there! I’ve updated all my programs and then scanned with them (norton, spybot, hijackthis, adaware) and come back clean so i’m stumped. :shout:
Anyone have any clue?


Thanks for the information regarding trains, the reason I asked…normally I go to Gav’s on the coach as you know, the reason I go on the coach rather than the train is because there never used to be a direct one from me to him…so by the time I’d faffed about switching trains I’d only have been saving myself 30 minutes from the journey.
Now they have added one that does go direct so I’m probably going to give that a go (it more than halves my journey time), however I’m not the sort of confident person who’ll just go and do it no problem…the idea of travelling alone, somewhere unfamiliar where I’m not even sure how everything works, it’s the sort of thing I’d have a weeks worth of sleepless nights about!

Also, thanks for the opinions and whatnot about Ebay…I’m glad I’m not the only one who finds the place really confusing and intimidating!
I’ve decided i’m going to try and sell some stuff here on my site…i’m going to take pictures and make a page for it and whatnot…i’m quite sure I probably won’t sell much or even anything, since it’s going to be UK only, paypal only and people who share my size (though I have things in sizes 14 - 20 since my weight is always so up and down lol) - but it’s worth a go right?
Keep your eyes peeled for that :)


I went shopping today, didn’t get a bloody coat…there was only one in all the shops in the entire town that I even liked but it was £60, I really don’t know where I’m going to get one from now :???: I did manage to get some good stuff though…got some fancy hair clips, some black pants, a brown calf length skirt and a long black cardigan and these awesome socks…they are bright pink and all ribbed and fluffy, they are so comfy and warm…every time I look down at my feet I think they are worms or something :jump:

OK that’s all I have to say, I need to go get food before I die of hunger! :biting:

My old computer was having issues similar to yours. It was beyond repair and wasn’t worth the headache, I just formatted the hard drive and now it’s working 20x better. The computer was messed up with many spyware, worms, viruses that it would literally take 20 minutes to open a window or even pull up the start menu. Sad, isn’t it?

Good luck selling your stuff on ebay! I could never do that stuff. Too much work and I’m too lazy. lol :)

Coats are so difficult to purchase, it took me a long time to finally buy a winter coat. I bought it yesterday. =3 I hope a coat calls out, “purchase me me me!” very soon!

I had this problem a while ago, It turned out I had two operating systems on the same pc, try clearing your whole harddrive and reinstalling.
