Yes, I still use Internet Explorer. No, it’s not because of nostalgia, or that I’m resistant to change, but because, when posting links to resources for students, Explorer doesn’t change the formatting. Example (screenshot):
computers, internet technologies
Anything about computers, IT, AI, networking, the world wide web, etc.
website outage
I just wanted to say “sorry” to those who have been trying to get stuff done on my website. It was down for about one and a half days due to a glitch in DNS Naming Services. I think it’s all back to normal now.
AVG broke my system!
AVG Antivirus broke my system! Instead of coming to my OGL and posting something, I’ve spent the past 1.5 hours trying to sort through why my computer is broken – specifically, why Explorer Patcher has been quarantined by AVG Antivirus. It actually started last night when my computer couldn’t open a simple .txt file. Then more of it this morning! They claim it contains a trojan virus. I really don’t believe it does! It’s just an add-on program that changes the goofy Microsoft Windows 11 look of a computer back to Windows 10 or 8 or 7 or whatever you like. It takes the stupid context menus out, gets rid of the silly screen one sees when punching the Windows button, etc. An hour and a half! Buggar off, AVG! Stop trying to rule how I live my life!
