toxicTom: Skype wanted to install an update. Ok, do it.
Skype restarts, but gets no connection.
Visual Studio crashes. Happens sometimes, but trying to restart it gains me "Not a valid executable, remove link?" WTF *I NEED TO GET WORK DONE HERE!*
Ctrl-Alt-Del... "Logon screen encountered a problem and crashed".
Explorer crashed.
Trying to shut down the computer gives me a black screen and a mouse cursor (still working *yay*).
Forced power off.
After the restart at least Visual Studio starts *phew!*. Want to recover the solution? You bet I want! Erm, one moment - this is a week old. Where's my work?! At least the repository still had my files. Lost only half an hour of work.
But really MS... Skype update = near apocalypse?!
