nothing else *messed up* .... actually, one thing could be considered BETTER...LOL (this is something the kids could have done, tho....but they could NOT have registered a new user at Jack's in the manner that it was done) my task bar was cleaned up BIT TIME.......there is a pop up that comes up all the time asking me if i want to get rid of crap not used, and i always ignore it, they could have clicked on it.
the way the *options* were set up, it was obvious it was done by someone that knew what they were doing, and it was a VALID strange e-mail addy that was used.
first thing i did when i saw it, was took a screen capture and e-mailed it to Jack, asking if he knew anything about who this nickname belonged to....right after i hit SEND with the e-mail, the brain kicked in and said DUH..... you are logged IN as this person, you can get all the information you want to on your own
this user registered on 9/24, so it was somewhere between then and yesterday that it appeared on my puter, and there is no way of knowing if it had showed up before yesterday and just gone *unnoticed* since i hadn't tried to post (posted last time from work)
Jack had no more info than the stuff i was able to find out on my own. either it was a BUG (that i'm hoping happened to someone else, too) or someone was in here over the past couple of days that did NOT belong in here.
