E gads I had that gray streaky screen again this morning its been weeks since I had that.

Well everything seems okay with the computer this weekend.  I was a little concerned when the little computer icon in the task bar only showed a tower like thing.  I was still connected to the internet (that surprised me) but this was on for a couple of days.  Speed currently is 18-24Mbps.

Google is streamlining their Privacy policy to cover all their applications.  I think I have read it but I kept clicking “got it”.  I am hoping that will be all to do.

Many social network and journaling sites were protesting against SOPA. Wikipedia did a major info (which annoyed the hell out of me when you try and use their site) .  I just downloaded the data on it and I need to read more about it before I can explain here but apparently it has to do with free speech.

should I be concerned?

I know its been over a month and in that time had a couple of updates both windows and other security updates and verything seems fine but the little computer has the “x” in the corner as though it’s not connected. I checked the modem and they seem fine. I am able to access the net.  I have been trying to turn off the computer every couple of days and I may have to do it again.
