1: Squee!
2. Launch game and finish that update already!

3. Next time I am removing a trojan pay attention and do not delete core windows files! ... I give it a month until I forget this one.

Yay! ^_^ You got your lappy back! :D

Well you have anti-virus on your computer right? It should take care of that for you; you shouldn't have to do a thing D:

I don't have antivirus actually because they are annoying system resource hogs and I have no patience for dealing with them. I would way rather pay attention and use a combo of malwarebytes and manual removal than wait all the time ... yeah, I know it is only a a split second wait most of the time, but I notice damn it! lol.

Usually I don't have any issues at all and I don't often get any sort of viruses (the network security is pretty solid there). In this case though I even knew I was going to get it. I was expecting it. So removal was not a big deal ... until I wasn't paying attention ... then things got "interesting" :/

All better now though!
