Sure, you could collect a saliva sample and send it
off to a lab for analysis, easy enough. But what if you could just spit
on your screen, and then have your phone or tablet do all the lab work?
Byoung Yeon Won and Hyun Gyu Park from Korea Advanced Institute for
Science and Technology suggest that all you need to do is press a tiny
droplet of the sample against a phone’s touchscreen, and then an app
would figure out whether you have food poisoning, strep throat, or the
flu, for example. New
Scientist reports.

I know
what you're saying. "But
Rodge, will my partner be satisfied? " The answer is yes. Yes
she will. Think about the benefits. No theater tickets,
no expensive dinners. Hell, no shower or shaving necessary. Sure,
the preggers and std thing are problematical; that's why I'm rushing
into production with a touch screen condom You're
welcome. |

My computer has been taken o9ver by something called a win32 false alert that mimics Widows Security. I'm doing this on my crappy notebook. Anyone will someone google this and see what the fix is? I have scanned with Avast abd now it's taken over. Even Safe Mode is hijacked.Rodger
ReplyDeleteGoogle it! There's a fix, but you have to do it yourself to a large extent. I had it and got rid of it by following the directions I found through google -- an I'm no computer expert. Took about an hour to do. You will have to download a couple of specific apps for the purpose, but it did work for me.

ReplyDeleteA complete re-load of the OS will work, too.
Seriously, I sympathize - had this happen to a box at work, and it had to be re-imaged. Here's what MS has to say about it, and probably a good place to start:

For some reason, this hasn't happened on the Linux boxen here...
I got hit with a similar one recently and only Malwarebytes would get rid of it. The free version works great.

Here is a webpage that has a number of "LiveCDs" from AVG and other antivirus makers to clean your pc without booting from the main drive:

THANK YOU ALL! Got it fixed.
ReplyDeleteConsidering that some of the computer critters install executable icons that are only a few pixels in size, your current critter might have layed in wait until the moment you happened to click on that spot.
