This is what happened in Terminator 3 isn't it? There was a virus out and they gave control to Skynet to kill it...but Skynet had put the virus there in the first place!Mm seem to be ok down here, but we are so far aaay people forget we are here.
Maybe we’ll just keep quiet and watch for a bit
The antivirus has caused a virus!
Yeah, I managed to get logged on and hooked up to our secure network this morning but loads of our Microsoft servers were down.
Now my connection to network is gone and my laptop is saying I have no internet which I do.
No teams, no e-mails, nothing. Then I realised I’d switched on flight mode in error!
Can’t do 90% of my work though due what’s been affected. My company will have about 50 emergency meetings before anybody takes any actual action to update anything too. It’s going to be a long day!
Has anybody tried turning it off and on again?
We have our meeting at 10am which won’t consist of anything beyond small talk as our reports can’t be ran until it’s fixed.me too. gotta drive ten miles to install whatsapp on a customers phone (for the third time). cricket. taproom all afternoon. fml

No mate, but my company does have a decent track record of running overnight updates and buggering systems up!Do you work for CrowdStrike? :)
Ha ha ha ha. Dear god I do not miss our RtOP (Return to Operational Procedure) meetings, 500 senior managers asking pointless questions, while us techies just wanted to crack on, then another senior manager would join the call as say "can someone give me an update please?" FFS we could have fixed it by now 10 times over!!!! I feel your pain mate!Can’t do 90% of my work though due what’s been affected.

senior managers/directors are generally absolute nightmares in these situations unless you have a good manager to act as the barrier between the engineers and them. The number of times I have had a director literally standing over my shoulder whilst I am trying to get to the bottom of an issue ... it might go more quickly if you leave me the feck alone mate and stop asking questions.Ha ha ha ha.

that was me. I used to say to my guys, crack on and I'll deal with the fallout. So they would do stuff in the background. Bonkersgood manager to act as the barrier between the engineers
You need to be bolder. Once or twice when working in a sub or control room with ever increasing numbers of non-contributors gathering I've had to announce "fault finding is not a spectator sport". They soon get the hint and feck off.senior managers/directors are generally absolute nightmares in these situations unless you have a good manager to act as the barrier between the engineers and them.

They’ve changed it up in recent times to avoid this stuff happening.Ha ha ha ha.
