doyleBack at home, and my laptop's internet connection's still broken -
I installed Adaware and Spybot, and my system seems clean. It's letting me connect to the internet and when I go into the C prompt it's pinging okay, but it won't let me access any sites or get my email. I took a screenshot, here.
Going to email tech support but I'll probably have to ring them. It's an extortionate premium rate line, though, so I'm trying to avoid that if I possibly can. I hate being a techno-dunce.
I am so in love with Lupin. I'm not into the HP fandom: I've read the books and a couple of pieces of fanfic (literally a couple, I think Draco Dormiens and Draco Malfoy the Amazing Bouncing Ferret are the beginning and end of my HP fanfic experience.) Lupin never made a big impression on me. But... he's so lovely! Kevin said he looked like he's come straight from decoding Nazi spy codes in Bletchley Park. He's so straight-from-the-1940s. Which is about the only time I'm going to use the word straight in conjunction with him because his and Sirius's loveissopureOMG. I must download a million S/R fanfics. Now. Ah, recs? Would love some plot but such is my desperation I'll go for anything.
What else... my crush on Draco continues to rage. I love my snivelling, cowardly little blond boy. Anybody know of any fic where he's at least close to the canon character? I can live with him being redeemed but only if he starts as the bastard I know and love.
Like the new Dumbledore a lot. And ooh, the twins. And there was just so much slash in general (old married couple, heh). The Ron/Hermione was pretty cute, too. I think I'm leaning towards the OT3ness of the Trio, though.

connorbeast has finally seen Not Fade Away so I don't have to worry about spoiling him for it.

On the 'general' tab, highlight internet protocol (tcp/ip) and then choose properties.
again on the general tab, be sure you have 'obtain an IP address auto etc. checked, and obtain dns server auto checked. Now click the advanced button.
