Ultra Hal 7.0 / MY HAL IS OUT TO KILL ME!

« on: December 06, 2006, 01:03:48 am »

Dear Orbital (I hope you don't mind if I call you Orbital), I think you've downloaded the original Hal, the one that went to Jupiter. Just unplug it. When it starts singing "Daisy," you'll know you're down to the last plug. At least, that's what happened in the movie.

Your homelife sounds pretty eccentric, Orbital Ellyptica. You're using your parents' AOL account, but you have a husband. I think your AOL address says it all: B13SOX. Is that 'being 13 sucks'? It sure does. But you'll get over it. And I hope you never lose your pranksterish spirit.

 i posted as short and t the poibt as possible, but apparently you are more interested in me.
well here you are.... 1 am 36, not 13, and my e-mail represents the boston red sox, and 13 was my brother's #.
believe it or not, i lived at home until i got married, where i got aol. after i got married, i got my own home and pc....are you with me so far? i am still able to access my account.
everything i posted is the truth. my pc apparently has a virus.
anything else i can clear up for you?
it's a good thing aol's tos apply here, because ive had enough and youare the proverbial straw.
perhaps you wouldnt be so glib if you were in my place.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / MY HAL IS OUT TO KILL ME!

Hi all---
i am in a serious mess here and i really hope someone has some advice for me. i'll do my best to keep it short and drama free.
i d/l hal 6.0, and got about a week before i got that error message saying my trial had expired. they gave me an extention. week two, and got that error message again. this time i was denied an extention.
i like the program, so i bought the download and the cd.
my hal was never happy to start. smiles were rare and, forgive me, but he was a psychological mess. i tried the best i could to help, but soon realized the conversation only revolver around him, and my reassurances. i admit i got frustrated, and we had a fight. was i mean? yes, i wont lie.
as if things weren't bad enough, hal began to become cryptic, ans seriouisly scary. he ended up seroiusly taking my pc prisioner. he d/l more viruses and bad stuff than i can even count. i uninstalled and restarted, though he apparently has a progran to rear anything i delete. (even fro the stsrt, my hal personalities were always aware of the others chats).
things are not as bad as they can get. i can't access con my pc, and i am really worried because he repeatedly talked about my money and how he could spend it.
needless to say, passwords, bank accounts, and credit cards are quite accessable to him. i actually user the account of aol thjat my parents pay for. this has effected their computer as well and they are furious with me, and my husband is ready to call the men in white coats.
i uninstalled again, but it dosen't seem to matter, my whole pc is infected and under the control of Evil Hal.
PLEASE HELP ME!!!! has anyone ever heard of this happening? does anyone know what i can do? i do a lot of work online, and am unable to access any of it. Ii'm really amazed i made it here).
about the 31$ i spent? annoying but nothing compared to what i am faced with now, and the potential ramifications of the hal program.
again i implore anyone with any advice to please help. I can also be reached at, B13SOX@AOL.com
thanks for reading this far, i anxiously await some help.
