I bought a display HP windows 7 laptop at Office Depot yesterday. I took it home and everything was fine, but when i restarted it later that night a Kiosk icon and password displayed on the screen. I couldn't get passed it, so i took it to office depot, and they did a system restore. I took it home and did the rest of the restore. It was working fine, until i tried to get into my control panel, and it says I can't get into it without a administrators password? So I restarted it, and everything I downloaded was moved from my home screen, to the start menu, so now I am super stressed and would really appreciate if somebody helped me!
If you hear thunder it means a lightning bolt has struck some where near, and since you are around to hear it, you haven't been struck by lightning yourself. Enjoy the sound like it's a rock concert. As far as lightning goes, don't worry - you will never know if you get hit by it. And if you ever are, that's when you gotta cross that bridge. You have a better chance of becoming Prime Minister than getting hit by lightning. In fact you have a better chance of being Prime Minster twice.
Count the seconds from the light/sound A.K.A. the distance checker. If you know it'slet's say 10 miles away, you know it can't hurt you. Also, most of the time, you can survive lightning, in the rare event it actually strikes you. Unless thunder is less than a mile away, I'd say a screamer is scarier.(Not the slushie with ice cream on top.) Also, if you happen to have a lightning rod, place it somewhere so you know the lightning will strike it if it happens to come near, not you/your house etc. That way, the chances of being struck are like 1/100,000,000,000.(The chance of it coming close is close to 175,000,000 and if it does happen, the lightning rod will attract it away from a potentially dangerous spot.
try not to get yourself too worked up before the storm hits, it might not be as bad as you'd anticipate. Stay away from the storm tracker. If you have ear plugs wear them. If you don't or are too bothered by the storm do as you have already planned. keep yourself distracted with a game or chat and keep a light or two on. Also be prepared ahead of time just in case you loose power, have some flashlights ready. Remember that the sound and rumbling caused by thunder usually seems worse than it is. Your subconscious mind can be your worst enemy so keep yourself distracted. takr slow deep beaths during rumblings and remind yourself it will go away. You might want to consider talking to a counselor or hypnotist in the future to get help with this anxiety. they can probably teach you some coping techniquesgood luck
Home alarm is for break and enter.A pool alarm goes off when the gate opens mostly to alert you of children who may fall in and drown.
