Yeah so today I was dling the new AIM 6.0, and when it was counting down at how long it was gonna take it went like this.

'3 seconds, 2 seconds......1 second, 10!'
I was like wtf how do you go from 1 to 10.
Anyway. Have you ever had your computer or just a computer do anything werid to you?

I had an error message that said, "There are no errors to report."

I was like, "... the f**k?"

I've had a download jump from one number to the next like that, yes.
Not 1 to 10 though, it was probably like 15 to 23 or something random like that.
But yeah, it has happened, and it is pretty strange.

That's not really strange. It's just a steep change in your connection..

A few years ago, I had a really crappy laptop and it deleted random files from my start menu whenever I ran Disk Defragmenter.

And once, I tried to save an MS word file on one of the school laptops and it said that there wasn't enough disc space. stubborn.gif There were hardly any programs installed and I was on the admin account on there too.

Technology is unreliable.

Yeah, when downloads skip around like that, it usually means your connection slowed down or the original timer wasn't quite accurate. It happens to me often. One time I was playing CoD and it shut down on meant a black error message popped up and it wouldn't close.

^ haha.

Man, my keyboard has been acting up all day. It thinks the control key is being pressed, so while I type, all these different commands pop up. It's really getting on my nerves. I took off the Shift and control keys to see if they were jammed, but they weren't. I put them back on and now it's fine... weird. :mellow

Yeah, I have dialup so I don't download much. Unless if I start the download and then leave and do something else. My computer doesn't have much downloaded stuff on it. I hate dialup cry.gif
