<strong>Main Report or Narrative: </strong>Oh boy what a terrible week. Got sick enough to not get out of bed for two days, and work piled up, so I didn't go in on Friday. In any case, I did work on Tuesday, so here's the report for that day.

Most of Tuesday was just me working on some more miscellaneous computer issues that popped up around the school. But before that, I checked the computer lab to make sure that everything was going smoothly. Thankfully the cable ties are still working wonderfully, and I even saw another instance of someone trying to steal something (and failing!). The only problem in the lab was just that several computers were moved around enough so that the power cables in the back of the monitors came out, thus unpowering the monitors. It wasn't a big deal though.

Around the school, there weren't any major issues to report. The Parents room computers again supposedly had internet+printer issues, but the internet issues were fixed upon reboot, and the printer was a non-issue: the installed printer just wasn't set as the default, so they were printing to pdf or something.

There was one computer slowing down again in room 107, which was due to the anti-virus (again). I'm not very happy with the anti-virus software on these computers. I haven't had too many reports of this problem lately though, but it still pops up every once in a while, especially when teachers are trying to do something. I can't really think of a fix though, aside from just removing the anti-virus from the computer (though CPS won't like that...)

Also of note was the fact that for some computers, pdf attachments stopped opening properly. Apparently it was an issue with Adobe Reader 5 (why are they still on version 5?), since an update to Reader X (10) fixed the issue.

Other than that, there wasn't much else happening on Tuesday. It's been rather slow lately.
