Save All Computer Work
Jan 11, 2008 | 2:48 PM PST
I have/had 12 years of garden files from pictures to gardening talks, articles etc.. I just wanted to say how important it is to save all your pictures and work on another computer in your home or on a disk. I shared my work computer at home with my 15 year old daughter. Can I just say we have a very nasty virus on it now. My husband took it to the computer hospital. It's been there almost a week now. I still don't know if any of my files are saved. I did save a few on my son's computer so not all is lost. But it just breaks my heart to know I may have lost years of work. I have an on-line help and advice gardening site which I've had to stop adding to for the moment just in case the rest of my files are recovered. TO think I might have to rewrite most of it is depressing. Totally my fault for thinking It couldn't happen to me. So please save all your pictures, stories etc. Don't let this happen to you.
