"Condoms are for safety and protection, right? Well....what, then, makes them so frustrating to install?
Oh, you thought I was talking about condom condoms? Oh, no, no, no, my dears, I was talking about anti-virus/spyware protection condoms. Get your mind out of the gutters, smutters. When I talk protection, I talk anti-virus/spyware protection.
So.
I had to update my anti-virus/spyware program today. Actually, I had to update it about three weeks ago, but I put it off. Seems like I do a lot of that lately. Anyway, tonight I purchased my updated version and installed it. First it told me that I had to un-install the 2005 version. Well, ok, but since that's your older version, how about just overwriting the fucking program intead of making me wait while you un-install it? Makes no sense.
So, $24.95 poorer, I installed the 2006 version of my anti-virus/spyware program. All well and good. Except at the end of the process where it tells me: You may not have the most up-to-date version of your anti-virus/spyware program. Click here to update.
OK. Why, may I ask, would you install an updated 2006 version and NOT GIVE ME THE MOST UP-TO-DATE ONE???
Makes no sense.
So....I go to the little icon in my start bar and click on it and up pops a window that says:
Your firewall wall is............ON
Your anit-spyware is..........ON
Your virus protection is......OFF
WTF??
OK, all I want to do is turn the virus protection on. Easy, right?
Except not.
There is no where to click to upload it. Nowhere. Nada. Zilch.
I started clicking my freaking mouse all over the freaking window. I have no clue why, I was pissed. Well, I must have clicked the right area because all of a sudden, there it was. I got to upload the most up-to-date version that I should have received for my $24.95.
*sigh*
I'm in the wrong business.

Computer protection...not fun. Clay Aiken...lotsa fun. But, you got to have the first in order to protect the clack from the second *g*.
Man, I feel your frustration. I laughed because I would have started clicking all over the place too trying to get something to take. I have little patience when it comes to technology. This same method applies to cars, remote controls, small kitchen appliences and husbands.
