Lately, I noticed my computer has been running a bit sluggish, so I decided to do a spyware and virus check. A whooping 1000+ results popped up and I almost broke my keyboard while trying to smash away my anger. So, I am pawning this old piece of dust and buying a new computer. There is no ETA on when I will start playing again, but please take the necessary actions if I am gone for an extended amount of time.
Regards,
Kainue

There is a possibility that there are false positives among those. Antiviruses love pointing those out.

Yes, that thought crossed my mind while I was struggling to try and fix it, but, oh well. I've been wanting to buy a new computer for awhile now anyways, so it's fine. But until then, I am not going to do much on this computer that can put my personal information and passwords in jeopardy. Heck, I'm not even logging out my CoTH account, heh.

Kainue, may I ask what programs you use to safeguard your PC and what browser you use? I may be able to recommend some programs that might help you better protect (and cleanup) your machine without worry.

Aye, that is right. I am back. The computer guys souped up my old computer for a bit of pocket change and tells me my computer is fine now. Just a quick announcement to everyone. I hope to see you all in game, both old and new faces.
