Finally couldn't take my demented computer anymore and decide to reformat it. Not like I'm typing this from my newly-reformatted computer - I'm too lazy right now to dig out my old boxes to retrieve those driver CDs to install my soundcard, videocard, modem, etc. Then I have to re-download my Winamp, Adobe Reader, Spybot S&D, AdAware, etc. And then, I'll have to re-download all over again Desperate Housewives of which I haven't finished watching (maybe I'll just watch it on normal tv) and all my beloved mp3s which are now gone with the wind :P So for now, my computer is still slowly recuperating from its brainwash. YESsss, virus and spywares and what-nots, begone!
You know that it's very empowering to make the decision to reformat your computer without transferring anything out of it? Well, not like I had a choice, because my computer hadn't allowed me to burn anything out and refused to detect my sister's portable harddisk. So I could do nothing but just erase everything - everything including my pictures, my mp3s, my music videos, all my various torrent downloads.
But, back to what I said, it's empowering. No wonder feng shui masters say it's bad chi to accummulate too much. I feel completely refreshed. You should try it too - not that I'm cursing your computer or anything. But, every once in a while, throw trash out - it's good for the soul.
