Boy oh boy...stupid me! Got me a virus on my computer. Admittedly, it rode in on an e-mail from university and it said "Your application" and I did apply for my final exam, but still - I thought it looked slightly fishy and still opened it. OK, since I thought it looked fishy I did a viral scan before opening it - wasn't detected. Antivir Schmantivir. Anyhow, I searched the web for a remedy and found one. Let's hope it works (the page said to disable System Restore before running the scan, which I couldn't do, so I just hope it didn't store the virus somewhere)...

So if you get an e-mail from me with some kind of attachment and I didn't tell you about it, better check with me first and don't open it.
