Naw I'm just kidding :)
I've been lurking around the forums for a while, I finally decided to register. I love the regulars here, I find you all really quite amusing. I'm not a computer genius or anything, but I won't be asking any stupid questions.. be nice?
*whimpers*
Oh one more thing we'd better get clear right now - yes, I am a real girl. No, I will not meet you, cyber with you, or send you dirty pictures. :P
-
No dirty pictures eh. How about just some tasteully artistic nudes? :lol:
Well welcome anyway. I read a lot more than I post but enjoy your stay and post often. You will enjoy yourself here along with the other ladies (Detta, Unleashed, Pseudonymph, Lacerda, etc.).

-
Yes! Welcome :)
-
Nice to meet you, Nooblet. I think you'll enjoy yourself here...
Now...about those naked pictures... :P
-
Hey hey, Nooblet!
Good to have you here!
-
Damn. I hope I didn't scare her off this morning before I went to work. Or perhaps she just thought Lacerda was a dood. LOL
-
:roll:
Hello & welcome!
Got me and my ban button all riled up for nothin'...
-
OMFG! Welcome to the Geekery!
-
Welcome aboard. Yeah, okay. :vader: Just cuz that's so cool.
-
...or send you dirty pictures. :P
Oh come on! Please?
Just kidding, I'm not a lesbian (or a robot). Welcome to teh geekery (OMFGLOL!!1!!1)

Ok.. sorry I posted and disappeared. I've got a bone to pick with someone here :)
Apparantly my friend let herself in (has a key) and I was gone, so she looked through my bookmarks.. Anyway she stumbled upon a post about hacking hotmail *sigh.* Her boyfriends a dirtbag and all, she wants to read his email, you know one of "those" people. So she sees a post she says is from one of you...? And despite my request that she never download anything, she get it and runs it. A bat file. Without looking at it.
So I spent my weekend using data recovery, changing attributes on my entire windows directory, and cursing at the command prompt.
Sorry if thats more than you cared to know maybe. I hope you're happy with yourself :P Needless to say I put passwords on everything. Also, I ate my friend. Hannibal Lector style. Ok but what I really meant to say (this is why I don't post, I'm a rambler, and not the car)
Drog- I didn't know there were that many ladies here, thats good to see. I'll artistically have my clothes on, and you can artistically dream on, if thats what you mean. :)
Dark Shade- Thank you, refer to above.
snyperx - Gracias :smurf:
Lacerda- Thanks, and sorry. Perhaps you could just choose a random person instead.
ho0ber, pseudonymph, Daria- Thanks, look forward to talking.
Detta- Dang.. are you sure? I've got a lesbian robot fetish. ;)
-

Yeah well, I don't think your alone with that here.
-
Are you reffering to me? Because that's totally untrue! I don't have a "robot" fetish...

Aw man.... that sucks!
I happen to know a thing or two about most "hotmail hacking" batch files around here. Is there anything you need help with as far as getting your PC back to normal? Depending on which one she ran, there could be a lot, or only a little damage... and you might not see all of it right away.
Do you know which one she ran?
BTW, welcome to teh geekery (OMFGLOL!!11).

I'm going to have to reformat and all that again, but thanks anyway. The computer freezes at seemingly random intervals. It actually froze a few minutes ago while I was attempting to respond to this.
The mouse moves around but nothing else, not a typical freeze. Wish I could use Linux lol. The thing that upsets me most is losing my music I was in the middle of composing, I've got most of it back down but a few phrases are missing. Thats life, right? :)

Wow. What a positive outlook. I like it! Most people would come here and ask how they could take revenge on the friend.

I think I remember someone who kept yelling at us to 'teach her to hack her boyfriend's Hotmail'? That may have been who it was...
This may have something to do with it...if the link doesn't work, it's a few theads down: "I Need Help I Have No Idea What I'm Doing". Check it out. I'm not too sure this is even your friend, but who knows? Here's that link:

Anyways, I hope I'm helping you in some way, and not hindering you. Cheers. :P

Yeah, thats the sucker Dark, thanks. I just reinstalled windows and explorer to a new directory. I think this is the line thats messing me up:
c:\*.sys del c:\*.sys >> autoexec.bat
But I would think windows setup should put those files back where they belong, no? *sigh* I've been forced into using an inferior OS, help :)
Oh and she's not the one who posted it, she went through my bookmarks and found that post on this forum somehow, same kind of situation. And who says I didn't take it out on her Detta? I cannabalized her, member? :)
-
Ah her, she was fun....
I just realized DarkShade dissed Wheaton in that thread.... heh....

D'oh! Hotmail3.bat at its finest.
The only thing you need to do is boot into DOS mode (which you should be able to do with a boot floppy, since you're using Windows 95/98, I'm assuming), and edit your Autoexec.bat to take the bad stuff out. If I recall correctly, pretty much everything hotmail3.bat puts in it is bad. You might be better off just deleting your autoexec... the system will create a new one for you.
-
I did that already, that was the first thing I checked. And since it was read only I just renamed it. I reinstalled windows (to a brand new directory), and tryed to reinstall IE. It wouldnt reinstall, it said it couldnt install on two OSs at once, boot up on the old OS and uninstall it. I can't boot up from my old windows directory, I had to delete it entirely. I installed the latest explorer to a new directory.
The reason I'm meantioning all this is because I have everything working like a charm.. except for explorer. The freeze only happens when I browse for more than a few minutes, the computer just stops responding in the weird way I described. I'd just use netscape, but this applies to windows explorer.. IE I cant look through my directories in a reasonable manner. I take it no ones familiar enough with the inner workings of windows and explorer to help me.. what a pain, I just don't want to go through all the hastle of backing up when its just one thing. I've got about 20 gig of downloaded material.. mostly on a 56k :)
But really guys, I'm just venting :) Don't worry about me, I know how to fix it if I really have to. Thanks, this has been an offical nonsensical ramble.

Hi, Nooblet!
Welcome to the Geekery. :P Hope you have fun. So, you're a real girl, huh? I thought they were mythical. My mom claims to be one, but you never know what to expect from old people...
-
anyone remember the quote from LOTR TTT (the :ahem: movie version)
Gimli: It's true you don't see many dwarf women. In fact, they are so alike in voice and appearance, that they are mistaken for dwarf men.
Aragorn: It's the beards.
hmmm...
Nah... I'm just kidding Nooblet. :D So what software were you using for the composition you lost from the hotmail hax0ring crap?
-
Don't make her tell us her überleet secrets, h00ber! Dat mean.
-
I'm not MAKING her do anything... I was politely asking. Plus, Nooblet has already busted out some überleet secrets anyway...
please share your überleetness, nooblet (or should i call you noobleet?).
-
noobleet? a contradiction in terms?
I like bunnies.
-
maybe is is, maybe it isnt... Is it like a n00b who is so n00b that they are leet? or is it a n00b that kicks so much ass that they are leet? damn... this requires some clarification.
noobleet = really dumb n00b (in which case i take it back, nooblet)
or
noobleet = really cool noob
whaddaya think?
-
I think it's the latter, h00b.
A noobleet is probably different from a leetnoob, though. Silly n00bs.

I don't try to be funny. I fail, or succeed.
Which one was that? :shock:
-
lol... it was funny, Jay... dont worry about it :D
i just needed to use that one... :P
-
w00t. I'm such a humourous fellow, aren't I?
-
I feel like I'm interrupting you two here, hope you don't mind :)
......... You can call me whatever you'd like to hooblet. :)
And to recover my hard drive I used a magnet and angry screms, whilst hitting my hard drive with a hammer. It'll fix all your computer problems, I promise. Especially if you use windows...
Its all good and working now though, minus a few Vivaldi / Nirvana MP3s.
-
well, you're half right...
EDIT: (that was to heavy jay)
-
Vivaldi, the classical composer? Mixed in with Nirvana? Madness.
-
sounds good to me. :D
-
You would think so :P
-
and what exactly are you trying to say, HeavyJay?
-
Nothing at all, ho0ber. Don't mind my quiet insanity
