Maybe it was CSIS in Canada!!
(just kidding)
I want to apologize for being snarky about this. OK, it's been bothering me and I feel bad - and I have a perfectly reasonable explanation!!
When I was searching Brian Mulroney, who was a former Prime Minister who accepted envelopes of cash from a military contractor (there was a recent federal inquiry), my computer's browser was hijacked by a website called
www.reputationhawk.com* and never recovered. I took it the repair shop.
When I got it all set up at home, it froze again. The reboot solved it.
So, it DOES make me wonder about it.
