For >> instance, >> everytime my computer boots up, I have to run Feed 5.3 and Water 7.1. >> Many >> times I've been in the middle of writing an important document and a >> window >> will flash telling me to run Take for Walk 2.0. This program also >> contained >> applications I did not wish to install, such as Pooper Scooper 8.5, and >> Shedding Hair 9.4. Applications such as Vacation 2.7 and Free Time 10.1 >> can >> no longer run, crashing whenever selected. Possibly the worst is that >> Cavalier King Charles Spaniel 1.0 has attached itself to >> programs like Finance Manager and MS Money, with folders added such as >> "Entry Fees" and "Puppy Toys". Periodically, I'll get a reminder >> telling me >> to send a check to the manufacturer of Cavalier King Charles Spaniel 1.0 >> for >> the aforementioned items.

A common misconception among users is >> that Cavalier King Charles Spaniel 1.0 is a mere "utilities and >> entertainment program." >> >> It is not - it is an OPERATING SYSTEM and is designed by its' creator to >> run >> everything! A warning will soon be imprinted on the box. Since you have >> already installed Cavalier King Charles Spaniel 1.0, here are a few tips >> on >> how to make it run better. If you are annoyed by the applications Feed >> 5.3 >> and Water 7.1, you may run C:\HIRE HELP, however this will cause another >> >> folder to be added to financial applications, labelled "Staff". Failure >> to >> send payment to "Staff" will result in Feed 5.3 and Water 7.1 being run >> again on start-up. >> A note of caution: NOT booting up your computer for several days isn't >> the >> solution to avoiding Feed 5.3 and Water 7.1. You will find that, when >> you >> boot up your computer again, a nasty virus called "Barking and Howling >> 4.2" >> will have attached itself to important >> documents and the only way to rid your computer of "Barking and Howling >> 4.2" >> is by purchasing and installing "Vet 10.1", which we admit is extremely >> expensive but crucial. Otherwise, "Barking and Howling 4.2" will cause >> irreversible damage to the operating system. >> Finally, it is important that you run C:\Milk Bones and C:\Tummy Rubs on >> a >> fairly regular basis to keep the application running smoothly.
