ah well. i've got no idea what a bot is! when i was getting the error message, it redirected me to this page that mentioned a whole lot of stuff i didn't understand, plus a few sentences about 'if you're collecting information for academic/research, pls contact us about it'... so i just assumed it's something that you can put on your computer, or it can also be sth that bad ppl put on your comp lol ('bad ppl' sounds weird.. but whatever)
and noooo don't wanna do so many things so my comp... i'll probably make it worse, just going by what i know about computers :$ i'll just hope it's not me... lj sent me a reply saying they were doing sth about some issue (again, i barely understood what was going on), so i'm just going to hope it's coz they were doing something that's all...
Bots are stuff people use in cyber hacking to access the site so many times that it exceeds the bandwidth of the site and causes the site to be really slow or come down (I think). Some evil people create bots and then spread them around to clueless people and these clueless people send it to even more clueless people and the list goes on (I think).
hm. ok.... not my fault... which is good... but if it's on my comp, and lj blocks me permanently... then v 冤枉 no? haha! just hope it's not my comp lar... hope it was something they were doing to the site or sth... o.O (and now i can still come on lj, so i'm taking that as a good sign *crosses fingers*)

...Though if you want to make sure, you can reformat your computer and reinstall everything, I guess. :)
