Tonight I had the wild idea of trying to fix my laptop's keyboard. There is a diagonal "column" of keys -- the 8ik, keys -- that weren't working. As a cheap workaround, I've been using an external keyboard. I bought a replacement keyboard on Ebay, but as it turns out, I didn't need it. So this evening, I unscrewed the keyboard, disconnected it, reconnected it, and screwed it back in. All the keys are working now. But my little eraserhead mouse is no longer working. I must not have put in the cable properly. Oh well -- I hardly use it. If I really want to use it, I can probably pay a tech to fix it.

Meanwhile, it appears that Ad-Aware has decided by itself to do a scan, slowing down and hijacking my system. And it's doing it in total stealth mode; there are no indicators that it's running (except when I go into Task Manager). Grr argh!
