New Topics from the Library of Congress

Via Robot Wisdom, Harper’s Magazine recently published a list of new Library of Congress subject headings that received Dewey Decimal numbers last year. Here are a few:

Accountants in motion pictures

Black humor in art

Blondes in motion pictures

Condom use

Drug abusers

Exaggeration (philosophy)

Family secrets

After Will hassled me, I’m trying out Flock again. This is my first blog post from their blogging interface. Fingers crossed.

Hi
My computer was infected with a trojan virus today, from a link from someone on msn messenger. I ran AVG Free and the virus went to the vault, which i have deleted and all seems to be running fine now. however, i’ve had to vault it three times. when I restart, the virus seems to reappear. but my computer is running fine.

but…

there is an icon on my desktop titled winstall.exe which when scanned doesn’t contain a virus, but I have just had a quick scan thru some stuff on the internet and get the idea that its a nasty little program that lets other nasty stuff infect my computer I can’t delete it, and in fact, am not sure if this is accurate and am a little worried its an important windows file i shouldnt be deleting at all.

I’ve now installed Avira Antivir as well, as a double up safety precaution, but no spyware detection programs as yet (I’m not even sure if I’m wording that correctly..)

help??
Thank you

Hello,
I am having trouble with my Internet explorer.It is doing some very odd things.Sometimes it will completely close the page i am visiting for no reason or it will be very slow loading pages and when i say slow i mean very very very slow for eg i tried to google something and after 10 minutes of the page trying to load i gave up.I thought that it was perhaps the topic i was searching so i tried putting in random things to see if that made any difference but it didn’t.Another problem i had was when i was on a forum and clicked on a link and nothing happened i tried to open a new tab and that wouldn’t work either and it would let me access any options that are in my tools menu.i had to restart my computer.Just to let you know i have high speed Internet connection.Thanks in advance to anyone that helps me with this problem.

Hey
It is horrible what happened at VT a few days ago.
The reporters are really showing these videoclips too much.
I hope it doesn’t put bad ideas in the heads of new killers!
I wonder if there’s any video from inside the school.
I hope the coverage goes away…
