jpp thoughts

Although i was going to work on some album designs and my upcoming senior photos advertising campaign, I spent most of today and parts of yesterday trying to get rid of a pernicious malware called "Total Security." It mimics other virus and anti-spam software. Based upon my google search, apparently it scares people into buying their software with false messages of virus and spam alerts. How they've been able to run a legitimate company and product with this type of tactics is beyond me. So after updating to a new malware/anti-spam software (goodbye Microsoft Defender which I am no longer using) and manually editing my registry, I think Ive removed TS. I'll find out if it works when I restart my computer. Previously whenever I restarted my computer after scanning and cleaning with the new software, TS would always pop up again. If I knew where the makers of TS lived, I would hunt them down with a dull knife!!
