Trust me, I'm the first in line saying that me in shit, it's just some woman's comp I was trying to fix.

It wouldn't download from most website, but, it worked flawlessly with ftp sites. They called their ISP, so the cable company came in and checked everything, changed the modem, it wouldn't do no good. The tech said the problem is probably win me... so they finally agreed to let me install windows XP (in english, even though they speak only a few words). Guess what, still the same goddamn problem.

Yesterday, I told them to let me go back home take a network card and try it, they already busted one, so why not another? After all, the cable modem isn't shielded from electric discharges, things like lightning you know. But still, why would it download from ftp sites without problems?! What the hell, it was the last thing to try before trying the comp here with my dsl connection.

You should have seen my face, it fucking worked, I don't know why but it downloaded from ftp AND websites. Fucking network card, took half an hour to get another one from the computer store (still on warranty), now it works like a charm, plus it has windows xp installed, oh yeah.

They had winme installed for 3-4 years already, tons of shit installed, problems all the time, finally it's all over, I can sleep now!
