Oh, the irony that is IT

Today I got a lovely sign to hang about how downloading Windows updates and running your virus scan will speed up the processes of your computer. The sign said that if we all do this, our Internet connection will run 25% faster.

I laugh.

I download my updates (heck, they're free!) and my virus scan is scheduled to run every Friday night at 8:00 pm, when hopefully I will be out yukking it up somewhere, and not attempting to IM.

Yet my Internet is down, and I am typing this in the lab, lest a "cannot be displayed" page deletes yet another of my many fantabulous posts. Something tells me that my lack of Internet is due more to server problems than my Windows updates.

Baah!
