Que es?
The Weblog of Brett Singer. Bringing the world what it needs most - a blog.

Note: Sorry about all of the 'hot deals' entries (someone referred to this blog as CorporateShill.com).
The deals and things are being fed into Multineedia.com. We will soon move the deals category over to Multineedia so you don't have to read it, and we apologize for any inconvenience.

    Yahoo Messenger Hoses Windows

    Let the word go forth: Yahoo Messenger trashed my Windows installation beyond repair. How do I know it was Yahoo? Well, I was suspicious when it started demanding that I upgrade to Yahoo Voice. But the real test was that after booting to Safe Mode, going to Add/Remove Programs and then selecting Yahoo Messenger - BAM! Reboot! This was the problem originally, spontaneous rebooting. Anyway, I reinstalled Windows, and everything went fine. But DAMN.

    So what's the answer? Use GAIM. Works fine. Doesn't install random crap. Is not ticware.
