Widows & Widowers Support Group
This community is dedicated to those who have lost a husband, wife, or partner. Anything is open for discussion here, with the hope that we can focus on grief, bereavement, life after loss, and continuing on after a great loss.
Some of us have had computer problems coming to this sight such as viruses. For me it's been a very slow computer. I could eat a sandwich just waiting for a page to load sometimes. Frankly, I hadn't really cared to do anything about it because grief has been my constant companion and all that I really cared about.
Today, that all changed. Getting to Daily Strength took so long that I said something had to be done. So I put on my old techie hat and did some research. I used to be in IT years ago, but lots have changed. Anyway, long story short, I ran a windows program called Disk Cleanup. It ran less than five minutes, now my computer is moving lightning fast. It's like the thing is young again. Wish they had something called Old-Grieving-Woman cleanup. Anyhow, I Thought I'd pass this along for anyone else having problems.

I have enough computer knowledge to be dangerous having built 2 of the 3 computers here.
Today I've been dealing with a virus that snuck in. I have it quarantined so no damage is done but when trying to research it, zero information on it. I must have one of the new kids on the block here.
