I wouldn't worry about it Fast. I usually rub the games Mike gets from me all over both of my cats before shipping them to him, and nothing's happened to Amy yet. I'm not even sure why Mike wants me to do it to be honest. But whatever, he always pays an extra 30% on my asking price, so I don't ask questions.

Yeah, don't worry about the cat. It is a legit allergy, but usually takes prolonged exposure. When we go to my folks house; if we're there an hour or less, no issues. If we're there for a few hours she'll start to clog up in the nose and throat and eyes go wonky.

Noise; the allergy is not cat hair, it's saliva. Your cats are supposed to be licking them! What am I paying the premium for :|

I am sorry to hear your cat is declawed, but I'm glad you have a good relationship with it. We have a couple cats here, and they usually don't want anything to do with what we're doing unless I'm reading a book on the floor or eating chicken.

I am sorry she is aswell, but since she is an indoor only cat so it is acceptable. She had a brother when she was a kitten and they were going to be barn cats, but he was killed and she became my cat. Thankfully she took to me, despite having cats all my life many are adverse to me. Its funny you said something about eating chicken, she actually doesnt like meat. I have given her fresh tuna, sushi grade, and she left it there. But give her a house plant at her level and she is good for a couple hours.

Our first cat we had declawed, a concern of the cat scratching the kids when they were tykes. Years later after the cat passed away, we got two more cats and a 3rd loaner while a friend was trying to get a different apartment. That loaner cat stayed with us a year thought we would get stuck with her, always breaking something in the house but a sweetheart. Unfortunately the other two cats could not stand her and eventually got returned after the move. The current litter, I just trim the cat claws once a month. All our cats are over the years are strictly in doors, seen too many pets get run over or taken away by foxes. Both cats are very friendly lap cats always looking for a back massage. :lol:

For those interested, the hardware was 100% fine, but there was a bevy of viruses and malware. Nothing super bad, but the flavors of the month were all there: Bloodhound, FakeAVgen121, and Zegost. Well that and a good bit of crap in the psu fan.

Though instead of more pictures, I went garage sailing...

Wouldn't usually expect a BSOD from malware (usually). Did you roll back drivers or something too?

I have said that since I was four or five, my mother would say "Garage Saleing" and I thought she said "Garage Sailing." It is not as bad as hearing "Race Card" and interpreting it as "Race Car" which got funny looks from my family when I asked why they were talking about Race Cars on the news.

I rolled them all back, then updated them individually, no BSOD. I know that some bloodhounds have caused BSODs in the past.

Mike now has a solid copy of Hirens at his disposal, tapped to the case.
