So I was looking around the L4D wiki when suddenly a big fat window blocked my screen saying "YOUR COMPUTER WAS BLOCKED BY THE GERMAN FEDERAL POLICE. TRANSFER 50€ TO <insert email adress here> IN ORDER TO UNLOCK."

I was wtfing all over the place and had to wipe the entire hard drive to stop that stuff virus from blocking my computer.

Clearly you have to transfer 50 Euros to the German police.

Ok so I boot up the family PC on day and a few errors popped up on the desktop. It was something like "Kernal32.DLL error" and it gave me a generic description. I, being the computer wizard of the family, thought it would be a genius move to just delete the file to stop the errors from popping up and my parents bothering me every day for the rest of its life. All went well until the PC was booted down. You see, the file resided in System 32, and I had deleted something with the word "Kernal" in it. I did not get a blue screen, oh no. Windows booted up to the loading screen (the black one for XP). It gave me a dialogue box with the simple words "Windows boot error code purple: Windows cannot boot". stuffstorm ensured (I didn't tell them I was the cause of the boot failure), and we ended up with a new computer (for the family).

Why didn't you reinstall Windows instead of getting a new computer, computer wizard?

I was like 9, I didn't know how to computer. All I knew back then was how to search a problem in Google, a skill that my parents did not posses. Also the guy at Best Buy was a richard and made my parents get a new one due to their ignorance and because he earns commission.

Ugh, my mother used to (probably still does) get all sorts of goodies from her 'internet friends'.

"Hey son, look at this cute little game my friend sent me."


"Mom, that's a server for the Netbus trojan.. your 'friend' has access to your computer.."

I wouldn't be surprised if she had gotten some SubSeven and Back Orifice trojans back then as well.
There's no telling what kind of goodies she has on her pc these days..
Oh mom...
