Yeah, no kidding. you could imagine how freaked and pissed off I was, at the same time. I felt like ripping off somebodys head during that moment. I guess shit happens though, but that certainly was NOT cool at all. I'm just glad that I found out the problem and fixed it, before it got way worse.

Glad you got the problem resolved GNEn!st, and more importantly, that you're safe.

 

Same exact thing happened to me once. luckily, i cought it in time.
