So, I finally scanned and uploaded my giraffes to the One Million Giraffe project: http://olahelland.net/giraffes/?id=45436

If you don't know what that is check out the link. It is further proof that the internet's great potential for awesome can, in fact, be harnessed for good.

And, while we're on the subject of the internet being made of win, I've really got to finish my help_haiti story. I've got about 3,000 words written. Yay! It keeps trying to turn into a multi-chapter giant, but I want a timely delivery not another never-ending-WIP.

Anddd... for something completely different.

I did a bit of icon rearranging last night. Unfortunately, I accidentally deleted one of my favourites. The "Doctor! Time Lord! Yeah!" / "Donna! Human! No!" animated one. It doesn't appear to be saved to my computer. If anyone knows where I could get it back, or else has a suggestion for a good Donna replacement icon, I'd love them forever.

I think I've just found some sneaky bugger viruses on my machine. They're lurking in this file: C:\SWSETUP\HPGame\games which is full of stuff I DEFINTELY didn't download. Because I deleted my HP games ages back. And these long strings of numbers don't look very game like to me any way.

Thing is, my AVG didn't detect this. I was getting a bit suspicious when I got "No Threats Found" on multiple scans, because usually it at least picks up on internet cookies, right? Then I looked at it during a scan only to discover that it wasn't checking any files. Because it was stuck on THAT file.

So, now I'm stuck. how do I delete these things? They're slowing down my computer and making me nervous. I don't keep any kind of banking info on my computer, but I don't want to be a zombie spam bot either. And I *would* like to be able to check my credit card bill at some point without fear of these things yoinking my info.

I understand that the SWSETUP folder contains base software for the computer, so I really don't want to go removing things from there willy-nill and accidentally uninstall my operating system as a result.

Suggestions?

Because I am apparently insane, but also very much wanting to help out with limited funds, I've made another offer on help_haiti

Right here

A $10 bid will get you an illustrated fic written and drawn to your prompt.


How's that for a bargain?


And, if you bid over $30, you get the option of seeing my laughable attempts at smut. If that's the sort of thing you like... (I refuse to even go there for under $30, but hey, it's for charity, so bid and see what you get!)

I have just joined the fandom auction help_haiti to help that country in the wake of this week's devastating earthquake. I've never done one these before, but they need a lot of help down there at the moment. I don't have much cash to spare after books and plane tickets, but I do have fic a-plenty.

My offer is on this page near the bottom.

It's a good cause, so, if you have no money go make your own offer, and if you do have money go bid on someone else. There's shiny art, and graphics, and other people's fic, and some really random stuff in the misc section.

The winning bids are forwarded to on to the appropriate charities.

I made some predictions. Let's revisit them, because I am procrastinating. Again.

( my theories and results, let me show them to you )

Chapters 1-7 are up

I have no review. No rant.

Well, that's not strictly true: I did rant and review on the DbyA.

I'll probably rant and review here later.

Still, in all the apocalyptic fandom explosions that are going on right now, I just wanted to say:

Matty boy, I wasn't sure at first, but you know what?

You're going to be fantastic.

OH NOES! I HAVE BEEN INVADED!

Chapters 1-4 are now up: http://www.whofic.com/viewstory.php?sid=34654
