Porn is great, porn is fun. But when I have to use my computer for business (VA, Social Security, and such) it is a major pain in the ass.
And when you call for help you wait for up to 3 hours on hold, you get some condescending little asshole who can't take the time to help you with your problem. I spent the morning trying to sign up for a site they say that I need to get my meds, only to find out after talking to 3 different people that I signed up for this back in 2006. It only took an hour to set up a password that it liked.
I also cannot download pictures from my pictures to email or the cellar. I miss my Apple. But the government web sites did not like the Apple. I'll say it again Computers Suck!!!

At work, I was recently prompted to update windows with important updates. So I did. And then I couldn't fill out my electronic time sheet, because the new version of Java wasn't compatible with that software. I tried to get the old version of Java and load that into my browser, but couldn't get it to work. Fortunately, I could just call our IT guys, and they took control of my machine, and fixed it.

So I hate computers too, but to be fair, the blame resides with Java. I bet they or a similar company is responsible for your woes.

Fargon, that has to be the longest post you've ever written. And it was intelligible, to boot.

Ps. You hate software.

New version of Java could cause problems with certain softwares? Hmmm....I just updated Java on my old desktop, the one that uses Windows XP cuz it may not be able to handle Windows 7. Ehem....anyways, after installing it, it prompted me to verify that I have the latest version and option to delete older versions. Hmm.....I closed the page, and it showed an error. Well, whatever. I turned off the computer. I'm gonna deal with it another day. I had oodles of things to do. Oh wait, gotta scan something and email it tomorrow. Darn, gotta turn that thing on again. :face palm: Hihi....
