ASP.NET Machine A...'s

Had a very itchy hand a few days ago. Saw in the user accounts an account with the name ASP.NET Machine A...'s. Since i never created the account I just thought that it was maybe a spyware or something like that.

So I just decided to remove the user account since I don't have the password for it. Then hell came...

My pc suddenly becomes slower, crawling even. Cant run any program. I can't use windows explorer or do anything at all. S***. What have I done?

Regretted my impulsive behaviour. I was thinking.. Oh no. I have to reinstall my windows! Then I decided to boot into safe mode and try to see if i can undo what I did.

Tried system restore. It was damn slow. Actually the msg "Not responding" is on the system restore window. Left it for half an hour and finally it managed to restore back my pc.

But to a state where lots of programs I installed cant be used anymore.
Regretted that i did not backup my registry. But then I'm glad that I don't need to reinstall windows.

After this I need to learn how to back up my registry.

Kiss- Because I am a Girl

This is a very good song. Can bring tears to your eyes..



Here is the English translation of the lyrics:

I just can't understand the ways
Of all the men and their mistakes
You give them all your heart
And then they rip it all away

You told me how much you loved me
And how our love was meant to be
And I believed in you
I thought that you would set me free

(REFRAIN):
You should've just told me the truth
That I wasn't the girl for you
Still, I didn't have a clue
So my heart depended on you, whoa

(CHORUS):
Although I'll say I hate you now
Though I'll shout and curse you out
I'll always have love for you
Because I am a girl

Been told a man will leave you cold
Get sick of you and bored
I know that it's no lie
I gave my all, still I just cry

Never again will I be fooled
To give my all when nothing's true
I won't be played again
But I will fall in love again

(REFRAIN)

(CHORUS)

I loved you so
Now you leave me in the cold
How could this be
I thought that you'd only love me

Into the night
I will pray that you're alright
You hurt me so
I just can't let you go

You took advantage of my willingness
To do anything for love
Now I'm the only one in pain
Will you please take it all away

Never thought being born a girl
How I can love you and be burned
And now I will build a wall
To never get torn again

(CHORUS) [2x]

War in Gaza

It has been more than a week since the Israeli forces went into Gaza. Don't get me wrong but I don't really care about war in far away places. I think that war is the stupidest thing man could ever do.

Anyway when I saw a photo of a father crying for his children, my heart cried out for them. This is stupid....

The Israeli is wrong to "attack" Gaza. But then Hamas is stupid too. Why can't they just say sorry and they lose the war. Then the civilians could at least be saved.

Sigh... Just pray for all of them.

PS: Here is a link to a different point of view. On why Hamas is the wrong side here. It is written by Alan M. Dershowitz. He is a law professor at Harvard. His latest book is The Case Against Israel's Enemies (Wiley, 2008).

Here is a link showing Hamas requesting children to form a human shield!

Keyboard Problem

Had a problem with my keyboard. When I type in @ the char # will appear. Actually it not the problem with my keyboard. It is keyboard remapping. It is just that when I installed East Asian Language in my computer. At that time I set the keyboard setting to UK.

The solution? Just remove the UK keyboard from the Regional Settings and install US keyboard. Thats all.
