We're back!

[meriad]

We'll send someone round if they do, Ria

Thank you

Not sure why I worry in all honesty - one of the partners of the company had a hissy fit when our IT manager took it upon himself to install internet access / security patches which in turn blocked various social media (and other) sites. Said partner spends quite a bit of time on social media so because he wanted it back we all got them back.

We've got access to nearly everything

No-one complained

Ooops. Those North Koreans were at it again.

[meriad]

Yup - major server strop again

[TheOstrich]

Indeed - and in big bold letters!

Annoying, isn't it? Hopefully this will settle! Thanks all xxxxx

Annoying isn't it...

My desktop at home will run for weeks and months so long as I'm in the house. The second I leave to go to work, 30% of the time it crashes and fails with a 0x3xxx number in the bottom right of the primary monitor.

After a solid 5 years of this I decided that I'd had enough. I got a smart socket. My computer is set up to power on immediately on power loss. So, thinks I, I'll get a smart socket which I can switch on and off from my mobile anywhere in the world so long as I have an internet connection.

I go to work, I power it off, I then switch off the socket, wait 5 seconds and switch it back on again. Voyla works perfectly.

Come home, go away again, desperately need the computer, nothing. Great, power it off, wait 5 seconds, power it on, wait, wait, wait, wait.... Phone Mrs S and it's sitting there doing nothing. Press the power button and.... Voyla, it' starts..

My desktop hates me!!!!! I will have my revenge when I rip the guts out and replace it all....

I will have my revenge when I rip the guts out and replace it all....

Some of us do not have that option....
