Windows XP SP2 RC2 Got Boogered the Other Day.

[Conan]

No offense to Boogs, my Windows got boogered the other day. The last things I remember doing was running the MyDoom tool from Symantec and then created a WinNX unattended ISO. Then later at night when I got home to install my monitor I was suddenly logged into this Test account (with Admin rights) after starting up the PC. Upon examining Task Manager, I had 45 processes running (I normally max out at 32 processes) but only 10-12 of them were listed.

I tried running a virus scan (Zone Alarm antivirus) and that program seemed boogered too. I system restored successfully to the previous day's configuration but fearing that it was a virus behind this I just reformatted the drive to be safe.

I love it. I think we ought to standardize the term. Anytime your computer goes belly-up, it GOT BOOGERED. Heck, we will all understand what it means.

I agree...Saying it got "Lynchknotted" just doesn't sound right.


And Rev, that was hilarious...Boogs

It got "Lynched".

Rev, we may need a new category titled MY BOOGERED COMPUTER, or something similar.

I restored an image then, but later on I reformatted and installed a slipstreamed SP2 RTM.

There are many who have had problems with SP2. Although I've yet to secretly test it out on my school's computers.
