It's true Jean - your husband's reality. As a business you can make money but for 10 hens at home each dozen eggs would be about $300 a pop until you paid off the coop at $899 and the freight to a home at $365, not to mention buying the chickens. Started 17 week old laying poulets are about $12 each but the shipping on them is $49 (they do come with their shots however). Then there is the feed and having to work it each day to keep everything extremely clean and fresh. You have to keep chickens away from wild birds and their droppings, not to mention the predators, but oh the romance of having a barnyard and a self sustaining life (without the hard work of course because you are rich enough to hire a few people to actually run the place). He he he... My co-worker had chickens and their chickens lived outside during the day and sometimes at night, but had a shed they could go into if they wanted. They lost some to predators and sometimes the eggs were just laying around on the ground and other times the hens would lay in thick shrubby growth at the edge of their woodlot (in the brambles). Betcha egg gathering was the pits there! She said they shot a opposum one time that was raiding a favorite hen's nest - the hen woke them up screaming her bloody head off and running to beat the band (they are fast she said) and with the flashlight they saw the possum on the nest eating the eggs. Boom - bye bye possie. Awww...... poor possie - he only wanted some fresh eggs too!

Looks ok no McAfee files present. Some start up items running those are the 04 entries.Those entries always start when you log on most of them are not necessary and use ram. Close all windows, Open Hijackthis and do a SYSTEM SCAN ONLY place a check mark in the following entries" R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = about:blank O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [ehTray] C:\WINDOWS\ehome\ehtray.exe O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SigmatelSysTrayApp] stsystra.exe O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [NvCplDaemon] RUNDLL32.EXE C:\WINDOWS\system32\NvCpl.dll,NvStartup O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [HP Software Update] C:\Program Files\HP\HP Software Update\HPWuSchd2.exe O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Logitech Hardware Abstraction Layer] KHALMNPR.EXE O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [MSMSGS] "C:\Program Files\Messenger\msmsgs.exe" /background O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SunJavaUpdateSched] "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Java\Java Update\jusched.exe" O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [MSMSGS] "C:\Program Files\Messenger\msmsgs.exe" /background O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [SUPERAntiSpyware] C:\Program Files\SUPERAntiSpyware\SUPERAntiSpyware.exe If that is paid version don't check it.

Click Fix Checked Close Hijackthis Reboot the computer. Check to see if entries are gone by doing another scan and saving a log file. Keep the log for future reference. If any functions are lost Hijackthis keeps a back ups and are easily restored. I don't expect that to be the case. We are not removing anything just stopping it from running. If you don't stay ahead of start ups soon lots and lots of things are running and the computer slows to a crawl.

Hi jean_mi_z5, Reports inconclusive to me. It's showing a lot of system file crashes, but those crashes can be caused by 3ed party files / drives causing the Microsoft drivers to crash and I don't see any 3ed party listed. If you're having a lot of blue screens and it appears you are, I strongly recommend you post at the link provided. Under the topic below BSOD, Crashes, Kernel Debugging Here is a link that might be useful: BSOD, Crashes, Kernel Debugging

The poor bird is trying to protect his territory from himself! He sees his reflection and thinks it's another male and attacks. Get some BonAmi and a big sponge and put a little BonAmi on the sponge and put it on your window....so it doesn't reflect. Looks awful...but it's only for a little bit. After about a week....just rub it off with a dry towel. Oh by the way....do it on the outside of the window, beecause when you wipe it off, it will leave some powder....which does no harm outside....but would be a nuisance inside. Glass Wax would work as well...but I can't get it anymore. Linda C
