Every time I start up my computer, it makes one hell of a horrible, extremely loud noise..

Hear it for yourself:
d530c-noise.mp3
*Make sure you turn your speakers up a little.

So I decided to take the covers off and have a look to see how bad the dust situation is..

And my god, all of the fans are full of shit, especially the Power Supply.
Now I'm not about to go out and buy a new power supply, is pointless when I want to get a completely new computer anyway.
But we just have to hope that the power supply doesn't shit it's self in the meantime..

Some pictahs for you to looksies at, lmao..

I've come into work today, despite my broken leg, because we're bloody busy, and help is needed, and also the work computer has some major problems.

It's infected with a shitload of Malware, Adware, and Spyware.
And also a few "Fake Adware" that tells you you have an infection, just to get you to download their software.
There's around 300 infections, bad I know.

I don't get any of this sort of shit on my personal computer at home, and I go to shitloads of "dangerous" websites all the time, downloading cracks and whatnot.

I use Norton System Works for my Virus Protection, and Ad-Aware for my Adware/Spyware protection, both at home, and here in the office.

Unfortunately I can't seem to remove the worst of the infections, it's a pain in the ass, and I'm getting complaints left right and center from my mum (my boss). As the "IT Manager" here, I'm meant to be able to fix all of this shit, and I'm unable to.

If anyone is more clued into these sort of issues, and is able to give some help or advice on how to fix these problems, and know of better programs to use, that are sure to fix these problems, the help would be greatly appreciated.

Please help! Hehe.

Thanks,
Nate.

Today I posted an article on my personal blog about the Artician customisation system, and just how bloody cool it is.

It includes a very short video (around a minute and a half - because it takes less than that to customise your profile!).

Check out my blog post!

Whilst on my daily rummaging around MySpace trying to find something actually interesting about it, I came across a link to the 'MySpace Profile Editor'.

I thought to myself "Oh, MySpace is stepping up in the world, let's check it out."

So I did. Well, at least I tried to, I went to the page, and what did I get?

"We're still in Beta, so this feature currently only works for regular MySpace profiles in Internet Explorer. If you're using another browser or are a band, filmmaker, or comedian, stay tuned. We're working on it!"

But it gave me a link to a shitty MySpace profile with a redundant looking alteration to the default layout, that gives you a long list of links to "tutorials".

Awesome aye?

What did I do then?
Reluctantly opened Intercrap Explorer and checked out the 'Profile Editor' that way.

Believe me, it's nothing special.

All it does, is let you select, and change alterations of the yet, you won't believe it, the DEFAULT MYSPACE LAYOUT!
Oh my fucking god, I am so impressed.
Not.

Although I spend most of my time making div overlay layouts for my myspace profile, I much rather spending time on here, Virb, or even though there's no customisation, on Facebook, because there's some pretty cool applications on there that occupy me most of the time.

I know this blog wasn't all that informative, but what the hell. I needed to have a little rant about the utter crap-ness of MySpace.
