Enjah, the little tailor of Palomarian, has killed 2 more. No, not flies, harddrives. Actually she isn't killing them, but it sounds better to say that. /me quickly sews a sash.
What's the score, Enj?

This week has been horrid - the amount of weird, bad things going on is perplexing.

Weeeelllll I may be able to shed some light on matters, but not much I fear...

Last night (for me - afternoon for you guys) I was filming the first scene of my wee movie when Enjah beamed in to see what I was up to and shoot the breeze. I emailed the first 40 seconds across to her (an MP4 file of 2.5Mb) using Gmail. As it was sending, I double clicked the file to play it. My entire system shut down with the Blue Screen of Doom.

I restarted, tried the file again and the same happened.

I restarted and this time downloaded the copy I had sent to Enjah from my Gmail account. This time it worked fine.

It would seem that the one I sent Enjah is OK, but my copy on my hard drive had become corrupted. I deleted the later and saved the former. I haven't had time to run a system scan and dish check, but everything is running well at my end.

But it seems that over with Enjah, as she watched the video (the emailed copy that I found to be ok), her system died and chewed up 2 HDs.

I'm at a loss. I have yet to run a virus scan, but I use the latest firewalls and anti-v programs so I can't imagine something like that has happened.
 
And you think you shed light on matters? I don't feel enlightened.

One wouldn't think a snippet of video could have that power. BSD yes, but take out two drives?

Unless it was a video of fluffy kittens in a sadist's bood-splattered dungeon or something.

I want to ask for thoughts about improving the world -- what do people need? How can things be organised?
