Much of the world woke up Friday discovering much of the internet wasn't working due to an outage caused by cybersecurity company CrowdStrike. And,Watch Sexy Beggars Pudding Online unfortunately, it doesn't appear like the problems will be totally fixed for quite some time.
Now, if it's just your personal Windows computer that's affected, there appears to be a workaround. The CrowdStrike issue caused many Windows computers to display the Blue Screen of Death but announced a fix around 2:30 a.m. ET. Mashable has the full coverage and steps but effectively you have to delete a file and reboot.

Think of how complicated it may be to individually fix the countless machines and services that use Crowdstrike. Everything from airlines, to banks, to emergency services, to healthcare providers, to grocery stores were down or disrupted. Unfortunately, the problems might not go away soon.

Wrote Mashable Senior Editor Stan Schroeder:
"While the issue has been 'identified, isolated, and a fix has been deployed,' per CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz, actually fixing it is not always trivial. This is not a simple update which can easily be deployed to all systems over-the-air, as many of the affected systems crash right after booting up, meaning they're in an endless boot loop. This, in turn, means that the fix must be applied manually...to each affected system, and in large companies, this can take many hours."
Kurtz later admitted in an interview with TODAYthat a complete recovery from the issue would take a while.
"It could be some time for some systems that just automatically won’t recover," he said.
So, uhh, buckle up for a Friday with lots of services down.
