It was a so-so morning. And this evening it appears I no longer have sound, and cannot play YouTube videos without getting an error message.

I am seriously wondering if it may be time to try to break my internet addiction. I got rid of cable TV years ago, switched from a clothes dryer to a clothesline (and have never looked back), have the lowest electric bill of anyone I know... and I generally distrust most technology outside of basic electric service and indoor plumbing.

Update: It appears I may have received a reprieve for now. I managed to stumble upon the correct settings (I still HATE Windows 8), and noticed that there was an "optional" update I had not received automatically with my last regular update. After installing it, I now have sound again. We'll see how it goes. This is the last computer I ever intend to own.

Morning!

Hey Lucy, I had that same problem with YouTube giving error messages yesterday but only in FireFox. It seems to be fixed now but it seems to have been a YouTube related issue. This is why I have Chrome as a back up ;)

Then it sounds like Devious Google was messing with both FireFox and IE. :(

Oh, I forgot to say "Good Morning!"

BTW... Icky took up a new hobby after Miss Lucy introduced her to the concept of bathing. She is making "Icky Soap" now...

Back to square one. I thought I'd fixed my sound problem. The problem is back. Now I don't even have sound in UO and when I'm logged into the game my mouse moves like an animal trapped in quicksand.

It has been a long time since I felt sooooo close to quitting both the game AND the internet. :sad3:

If you could change the colour of bees, what colour would you all make them?
