Silverlight


I'm trying to get sliverlight installed in firefox beta, and it installed once but didn't detect. I don't blame microsoft for that. However, when I redownloaded silverlight and installed it again, i got a message that the installation failed, and I could click a link for more information. This seems like something that shouldn't require visiting a website to tell me. Not to mention that it wasn't "another version of silverlight."

Delayed What?


I undocked my computer, went to a meeting, and then redocked it. Windows informed me that I have lost data because of this. I don't know what data, I wasn't trying to save anything, and I have no idea what on earth this is supposed to mean, so I'm going to ignore it.

Quicklaunch bar


I got to work this morning and turned on my computer only to notice that the windows updates I installed yesterday added an additional "Launch Microsoft Outlook" Icon to my quicklaunch bar. I've seen it do this before, so its no big. I just right click on the new Icon and click delete. This time, however, the entire taskbar dissapears and my computer locks up for 30 seconds. When it comes back, I try to click on the firefox icon and up pops the properties dialog for the icon. Same thing for all the other icons in my quicklaunch bar. Reboot and it goes away. WAY TO GO WINDOWS!!!

Outlook never forgets

I just sent this e-mail to our helpdesk. It makes me sad.
