| Stephen Brooks 2014-01-21 04:20:53 | The Brookhaven network has decided it's allergic to my computer and is throwing a "cybersecurity alert" and has isolated it from the network. So the stats can't update until that's sorted out. Slightly complicated because we may have a blizzard tomorrow and the lab may shut. But I'll see if I can get it unblocked. |
| Stephen Brooks 2014-01-21 22:02:50 | Yes, they didn't turn up before the laboratory shut, will try again tomorrow depending on snow etc. |
| Stephen Brooks 2014-01-22 04:08:27 | Tomorrow (Weds) they're shut all day because of snow. So it'll be Thursday. In fact their 72-hour block expires on Thursday regardless, so if it's a false positive it might just clear. I'd rather they explained what it is, though. There's a tendency for these systems to just say "Your computer was quarantined because of badness" without explaining what sort of badness or what rule was triggered. |

| Stephen Brooks 2014-01-24 00:38:01 | So today they locked me out of my workstation for a couple of hours while the remotely performed a virus scan, then let me back on. No explanation of what had gone wrong but at least the stats came back up. |
