Update
Thank you very very much to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
barenakedally, shipperchick, and krisnreine who offered advice on this whole virus fiasco. Nothing thus far has helped, but your support made me feel so much better about the whole thing. It also helped talking to an IT person who was actually HELPFUL and NICE. She told me to bring in my laptop so they can examine the problems in detail, but that will take about half a day and it's too late at this point to do it until next week (when they reopen). But I have the schedule of doom on Monday, so I'm going to have to wait until Tuesday.
I'm considering downloading Firefox so I can surf until then.
The good side in all of this is that IE does kinda work. I have major issues in Hotmail and Creative, but thus far LJ has given me very few problems, so I can still read my flist and give you all meaningless, random updates on my computer *L*. Thank you for taking the time to listen. I was reading over a Social Psychology book the other day which stressed the importance of social networks and having people you can relate your problems to, so it's good for my mental health! *L* In fact, that's in large part why LiveJournal is so important and popular.
OK, enough intellectual rambling. It's the weekend, there's new Stargate tonight, and my brain needs some serious unwinding!

That is all. Except that I hope everything gets straightened out well and soon.

Yeah, I'm probably gonna get Firefox anyway, but I'd really like to get these problems fixed too, instead of just working around them.

Also, download Firefox immediately. It will help keep something like this from happening again.

And I will be getting Firefox. I've just been lazy and afraid of change up until now. But I'd like to fix these problems as well, instead of just working around them with Firefox.
BTW, your icon makes me squee and I really needed that ;)
