It strikes without warning. First it leaps on to the back of my ++++++++ computer chair and perches over my head monitoring all screen activity. Then if slowly makes it way down my shoulder until it is positioned right in front of my sliding keyboard, ready to spring into action. Once it spots the cursor sliding across the screen it reaches out in its mischievous paw-like style and pushes the keyboard back into position under the computer table. Once the keyboard is again slid out to the working postiton, The McBethie Virus decides further action is now in order and it springs across the keyboard and leaps on to the computer desk making the Internet surfer temporarily blinded. It targets the moving objects on the screen and begins to play with the objects (such as it is doing now, and unless you are skilled a touch-typing, you can make a lot of errors)
Offering distractions does not work. Pencils roll but they are not nearly as fun as chasing text across a screen. Wads of paper are offered, but discarded soon because the computer is so much more interesting to "The McBethie Virus" Nothing is safe while it is o0ut and about (much like it now leaping onto my keyboard) If there is anyone out there who is wise and knowledgeable and can offer me an anti- McBethie Virus Detector, please email it NOW!
