I've lost hours today to (*%)*%^ malware. Normally the programs I have installed take care of it, but this is a new one, calling itself "Antivirus 360" (though of course it's not the Norton program).

I've got Malwarebytes Anti-Maleware program chewing through my hard drive right now, while I dawdle, updating my survey of COC in Doctor Who and doing the washing up. It's particularly maddening because I really wanted to finish The Sign today. Gevalt.
