ISPs, scanners and other irritations.

I've been suffering for a while from a nasty case of my-scanner-won't-work-no-more, so I finally gave in and bought some software to administer some 'first aid'. Nicely installed, it kindly cured a couple of minor ailments of which I was totally unaware (and probably didn't exist, but it had to pretend to be doing something for the money), and informed me that my scanner is fine. Oh yeah...so why is it still not working (except in slow-mo churning out some goo)?
Then I found I could no longer connect to the internet. So I installed another free ISP with fruit in, discovered the meaning of the phrase 's_l_o_w c_o_n_n_e_c_t_i_o_n', and recovered my original ISP, which I am now using again, albeit with a fruit filling.
Computers are so B frustrating (and I'm hooked).
