Do People Have Internal Electric / Electromagnetic Fields - that can potentially mess with Computers?

In my situation - every time I am the user of a particular computer - laptop or otherwise - things in the operating system seem to go awry and my husband (who is highly trained w/ 15 years experience in troubleshooting computer systems and networking issues) cannot figure out why this happens. He has seen this happen in office situations where a simple change in the user of a computer can cause problems, but in monitoring their usage - (with their knowledge) there was no evidence of misuse or tampering but the user. The only thing was that the same people had issues no matter the computer or the system, and we are finding that I have this affect on any of our home computers or laptops!

Can anyone provide answers - and better yet - a way I can prevent this from happening?

Thank you kindly. :-)

What if I don't have leather-soled shoes or they are hard to find? I guess that wouldn't work if I was Vegan either...? What would be the alternative?

Yes people do have an electromagnetic field that surrounds them. I suppose that it is theoretically possible for a person to have a powerful enough one that could disrupt sensitive electronics.

Have you tried ways of grounding yourself before using the computer. It might be that you are able to obtain and hold static electricity more effectively. I have messed up my mp3 player while folding clothes from the dryer.

Source link describes work on using the body as a network to transfer data between devices.

    Some people do pick up electrostatic charges easily. Wearing rubber soled shoes on carpets can increase this charge drastically. People who suffer from this affliction often receive little electric shocks when they touch metalic objects or other people who do not have the problem.
    For this reason some people have to ground their bodies when working on electronic circuits to prevent them from zapping the electrical charge through the components. I hade this problem until I started to wear leather soled shoes.

    I cant use a digital watch this started 15 years ago when i was electrocuted by 220 volts ended up in the hospital and they could not get the instruments to work properly on me. I didn't think a thing about it until i was out and home .I started noticing that when i would walk under street lights they would go out electric doors would keep opening and closing and any kind of monitoring instruments would go haywire if i was to close . Through out the years i guess i lost my charge but i still cant wear a digital watch and my ears still ring

    Not sure how to stop it i was always trying to enhance it think of the possibility's at the casino
    I think its another kind of energy that we don't understand or even discovered yet

    Yes people have energy which surrounds them. Some people's energy field is strong enough to disrupt electronic equipment.
