Man updates his PC to Windows 10 ... only for his wife to find his entire PORN collection transformed into a slideshow on repeat

One of my friends had his school assignments stored under 196 layers of encryption (don't ask). He is known as a "cryptopath". Yeah, he's nuts.

"school assignments"... of course :rolleyes: That's what I called it when I was young as well :laugh:

I like the quality of the Mail's technical writers: "Windows 10, the biggest update Microsoft has made to its computer software, finally launched after a massive beta test programme." So, the change from 16-bit to 32-bit pales into significance?

}You seem to be quite an, um, expert on these matters.

It's quite well hidden - looks like they've left it in the old-style Control Panel, so you won't find it by digging around in the settings. Fortunately, the search works quite well; just type "screen saver" in the search bar (or the "Find a setting" box), and it should come up at the top of the list.

I will point out that if she found out it was on repeat, that means she sat through it. ...and now that I've read the article: > "And to make matters worse, the malfunction was discovered by his wife" If it's true at all, then it's not a "malfunction", it's by design. > "who told the story so others would not repeat the fatal mistake." "Fatal", how? The story doesn't report any death. I normally don't read it, but now I know why others refer to it as the Daily Fail.

A similar thing happened about two years ago when we brought home the new 'smart tv' while my step-son was visiting. The wife started mucking about with the menu and was intrigued when she saw the half-dozen or so computers on the home network, including her son's. She was delighted to find that she could access pictures from any computer on the network, and spent a half hour or so looking through the pictures from her laptop. After that, she wanted to see what was available on the son's laptop...it was like watching in slow motion and before I could say anything, the screen was filled with thumbnails of pr0n! :laugh: What can you say? The kid is 28 yo. To me, it was no big deal, but the wife freaked out, confiscated the laptop and gave me the 'unpleasant' task of removing all the 'filth'! When he got home, he got a stern lecture from mom, and a little advice from me...'don't keep your pr0n in My Pictures next time'. His defense was that we should not have even looked on his laptop (that we bought) without his permission much less deleted content without asking first! :omg:

Too damn right! :mad: If he was 16, I could understand. But he's 28! He's considered an adult in every country in the world. If it was a shared computer, again I could understand. But you said that you bought the computer for him. In other words, it's his computer. If an adult wants to fill the hard drive of his own computer up with Brazilian fart porn, that's his decision. It's none of your business!

They seriously were. He left them decrypted once when he went to the restroom and another of my friends took a look. He was gone about 45 minutes, so there was plenty of time (Not sure what made him take so long). He also called porn the "Spawn of cabbage" (He hated cabbage with a passion). He was, as I said, a bit nuts.

While I agree with you, I was simply following the ruling of a higher authority and failure to comply was not an option. Sadly, for him, his windows password was predictable enough that I couldn't use it as an excuse not to get involved.

Maybe he was trying to give his wife a hint. You know.
