Hi Jack

Remove the problem or yourself. It is obviously simpler if you get rid of the computer. Discuss with a friend and ask them to babysit your computer for 30 days so that your house is computer free.

If you want to check emails or do a quick bit of browsing then go to the library.
You will be amazed at how little you need to use a computer.

How do I know this. I emigrated recently and my computer has been on a ship somewhere in the middle of some ocean for the past 4 months.

I checked my emails every few days in various places. No big deal.
