'cause that's how those words would follow case as a title. Most folks likely overlook how you've done it in your name in favour of that.

Actually! I hadn't ever considered that. I always assumed it was to break up the flow of the word and keep it from looking like "mom" as much as possible. Weird.

Anyways, about that virus and stuff...

Well, I'm going to have to just redirect things to here, then: http://www.nuklearforums.com/showthread.php?t=37503

Whelp, this thread should probably be locked at this point. To update you guys on what happened: it worked, the virus(es) as far as I can tell are all gone, and the computer is up and running. The reason I haven't been active again, however, is that when I disconnected from the Internet, somehow I lost my WEP, and so can't get back in via that computer. Good times. I don't expect you guys to help me with that part, and you've all done so very much I appreciate it, especially since I, n00b that I am, created this thread when there was a sticky for this very thing. I'm posting here only because the virus part is (I think) done, and I don't want to post a "hay, eye'm gud nao" on a sticky. Peace and the Lord's copious blessing on you people for your help. Hopefully I'll be more active soon, once I figure out what I did with my WEP.

If it's just a matter of not remembering your WEP or that computer not having it, one solution is probably just to, on a wired connection, configure a new WEP passkey on your router.

Or move to the stronger WPA 2 if it can. Then you can just reconfigure the machines that connect wirelessly with the updated info. If you know the WEP, though, you can just do this on the machine in question.
