Is this really going to happen?

I have got 40 minutes left if it does.

But wait... overseas the "D-Day" of Feb 3 has already struck....

We are saved?

But if you live in Britain... then it is tommorow... and I don't see the british flocking to their computers going " ohs noes my psds r been erasd!" so hopefully nothing will occur.

I don't get how they expect to get me with this one... I mean, I've never had a virus in my life so why should I be worried now? Besides... I already have a backup at hand on DVD.

How can you have a backup on a dvd when you have a 120 gb hard drive?
My computer has ~50 gb installed games, ~50 gb downloaded anime and assorted legal material, and ~ 50 gb installed utilities.

How do I back up that

I am getting some extra protection on my computer just to be sure I don't lose anything...

I only have about 4 gigs of stuff. Trust me, I'm organised
Anything that can be on a CD/DVD, is. I don't keep images or installers on my hard drive. That elimnates just about everything.
