American Carnage Tour featuring Slayer, Megadeth and Testament is put on hold. Slayer’s Tom Araya is scheduled to undergo back surgery (anterior cervical discectomy with fusion) at the end of January 2010. The procedure is relatively routine and has an excellent recovery rate.

Statement from Megadeth camp:

American Carnage Tour Postponed
AMERICAN CARNAGE TOUR FEATURING MEGADETH, SLAYER AND TESTAMENT POSTPONED
MEGADETH TO ANNOUNCE HEADLINE TOUR FOR MARCH AND APRIL

The much anticipated American Carnage Tour, featuring hard rock behemoths Megadeth, Slayer and Testament has been postponed as Slayer’s bassist/vocalist Tom Araya is in need of back surgery.

While disappointed by the tour’s delay, Megadeth are concerned for Araya and wish him a speedy recovery.

Megadeth are currently scheduling a U.S. headline run for March and April, and are rescheduling the American Carnage tour for Summer ’10. Anyone who has purchased an American Carnage ticket can hold onto it until the new dates are announced. Please visit www.megadeth.com for the latest updates.

Up All Night Removing Malware From Windows XP.

Since the computer is needed 1 hour at 06:00 hour, I pulled an all-nighter to remove the malware from Windows XP. This malware is a vicious one. It is a memory resident malware and altered any executables ran after explorer shell was launched. It did not alter the executables and that’s why most Anti-Virus programs detected nothing at all.

I managed to remove the offending malware manually so I could get started with the process. Here I am six something hours later running final scans on the hard-drive or any traces of the malware.

So far, so good…

This Decade Doesn’t End Until December 31st, 2010.

There is no year Zero so the decade starts at year One. This means this Decade starts in January 2001 and ends in December 2010. Why do everyone calling out “The Best of This Decade” already?

Well, unless we’re talking some programming logic, we’re starting at Zero. But we never had year Zero.

Once again, the 21’s Century starts in 2001, not in 2000.

Why am I doing this?
