Completely off-topic, but am I the only one that chuckled at this title?  A 
very minor mistake, but "irresponsible" means "not responsible", and brings to 
mind pictures of your computer spending all your money, running an anonymous 
proxy without asking you, or maybe sending prank e-mails to your friends.  
Maybe you're dealing with a teenage computer? :p

You meant to say "unresponsive", but we all understood what you meant to say.
