You need to know this...

I know...two post in just minutes! A few days ago I had a strange follower added to my friends list. I noticed my computer started acting crazy. That one "friend" did a ton of damage. What I didnt know was that our friends link their blogs to ours. If they have problems or bugs they can pass them on to us. I know who you are and you are very special to me. Each and everyone of you! So if you no longer see your sweet face on my page...its still in my heart! Love ya guys

  4. Thank you, Susie! I went to another blog via a blog I visit and my computer started acting crazy too... opened up endless windows and I couldn't stop them. I had to shut down and restart, and that seemed to take care of it.

    Blessings!

  11. This happened at We are That Family today too, although she got tons of spam in the comments. Let us know if it happened from any of ours, so we can look into it.

  18. That's really crazy! I wonder what is up with that. I've never had anything like that before & I've got my Followers up. How in the world did you figure out it was something from that button??

  19. That is SO bizarre!!! I had no idea! So you have to remove the whole followers application? Huh.

    I'm sorry that happened to you though. You've had your share of "things" haven't you?! See, you need to only have 10 people read your blog like me and you'll be fine! The problem for you is that you are just too talented and cute! *smile* Hope it all got fixed for you!

  29. I had something like this happen to me and deleted the friends following and the blogs I follow also and it was better.

    It's weird and a pain.

  30. I had one of those! I have very few followers so it was easy to spot the stranger danger. I tried "stalking" them and it led to nowhere. I deleted and blocked the follower. I had the same continual window opening thingy going on but I attributed it to Windows Vista (which I loathe). So, I backed up and wiped out my computer then reinstalled windows. Maybe if I'd been a little mroe patient and a lot less angry I'd not had to redo my whole computer... OOPS!
