Techy Stuff

Actually, my computer seems to have been suffering a bit recently. The most worrying aspect is that it is stuck in its own electronic Groundhog Day, and refuses to boot up unless I system restore it to the 24th of January first. The source of this problem is a little difficult to trace because I only reset my PC once every fortnight or so, but I'd rather like to know what's causing it so I don't have to reinstall my recent programs when there is cause to actually switch it off. The blame points at the moment to Acrobat Reader, even though I can't imagine why that would have anything to do with it.
In addition, Whitney's Mac works but has been playing classical music at random, as and when it desires. This was immediately traced to an overenthusiastic Classic FM widget, which was thankfully disposed of this morning. I have nothing against classical music, but it is disconcerting when you're working in a quiet room and the 1812 Overture suddenly begins blasting from behind you.
