There is no pirate signal...

...Or no need for it, since I now have the laptop connected to the home wireless connection. Just got off the phone with a very nice tech from Verizon, who diagnosed what's up with the desktop. It appears said desktop has a virus, as there was nothing wrong with the router. It was a simple matter of finding the passcode to hook up to it, and that turned out to be right on the router itself. I'm of a mind to have the desktop wiped and reloaded, but we'll see. I'm happier with the laptop than I've been with the desktop.

So! I'm fully connected once again. I just need to get some files from the desktop and get back to work on various projects that have been hanging (ie. the Twhinelite/Yami no Matsuei crossover, the centi_50 fics, etc.).

I guess just make sure the files you save from the desktop don't have the virus in them to give to your shiny new lap top :)

Mmm, I'm going to be extra careful about any file transfers: I've got some of them backed up on a disk, but I'm not taking any chances.

Very happy to read that you're back in full force! *snugs*

Hee, glad to be fully back in action and less dependent on the whims of the scothery pirate signal.
