Computer Wierdness

Today my computer partially froze up on me.  Alot of people have these problems, but for me, problems such as this are very rare.  I was just listening to some music in iTunes, and doing up a Megatokyo panel CG in Photoshop, and Firefox open as well.  When I was brushing some shadow on the CG, the music stopped, and when I moved my cursor around Photoshp it disappeared, but on the Taskbar it reappeared.  I couldn’t CTRL+ALT+DEL to get to the task manager.  So… I then pressed the emergency RESET button on front of my computer, below the power button, and then after waiting a couple of minutes for the computer to log on (I have a PPPoE internet connection) I checked the logs and I couldn’t find what was going on.  So I went into the task manager while I had Windows Defender checking files for spyware crap.  One of the programs was using almost 100% CPU, whjich turned out to be one of the programs for Windows Defender.

So anyways, I’m used to having computers at school crash, but if it’s a computer that I am attached to (such as the compy in my room which is the whole family’s) I freak because it has things like my “future website” (which is obviously never going to get done at this rate,)  my MTCGAC’s, old anime drawings that I did, and 3.3 days (~5GB) worth of music… and my anime pic collection which rarely gets used or opened.

So now, I have to get ready for my math tutoring (6:30-8) I might put up a log of events tomorrow lol
