This is gonna be long, so hold on...
So today I woke up and my cable, internet, and phone connections all didn't work. So my mom called up Verizon and asked them WTF was going on, and as far as they can tell it's their stupid wall box thing. I'm not sure whether it's related or no, but I'm currently on my neighbor's wireless - which causes all sorts of shit because Windows translates horrible horrible network latency to horrible horrible desktop latency (I was not when everything turned to shit).
So I was bored and actually getting around to doing things I should have done, and ended up installing Bulk Rename Utility from an installer I had stashed away - I've used it before and no problems. After I was done I decided to cook some lunch and then go outside, so I shutdown the thing and went about my business.
When I came back I turned it back on I was playing Morrowind (it's not installed on the C drive - that'll come in handy later), and a few seconds after I quit my computer froze so I restarted it. When Windows was booting it said it wanted to check my C drive, and when it actually tries to check it it says it can't access it directly because of a recent software package, and then just loads Windows - which then puts me into a temporary profile which is full of an annoying background, annoying default firefox settings, annoying animations, an annoying control panel, and annoying alerts everywhere.
I've uninstalled BRU in a vain attempt, but to no avail and I'm gonna try to repair it from the DVD, and I'd appreciate thoughts on just exactly what the hell is going on.
