We took a lightning strike Thursday night. It came in on the ethernet and fried a good deal of electronics in the house. I'm running on a very minimally configured system - just enough to get by and connect to work. Haven't put in any personal stuff really EXCEPT my DU bookmark. I didn't do any browser add ins (like ad blockers, etc.) since I'm going to have to reconfigure the systems all over again when it gets fixed or replaced.
