Vandals!

Whoever is responsible for hacking my system this past weekend, I hope you're happy.

After wreaking havoc on my poor machine, this anonymous miscreant left the system unable to shutdown or restart. Any attempt to install a virus scanner is met with a barrage of Invalid Page Faults and rather frightening warning messages like: Try that again, and I'll clear your bank account, sucker.

This is one pissed off hacker.

No, the system couldn't be saved.

Yes, I think the hard drive is toast.

Yes, I now have a firewall.
