Motherfuck.
Goddamnit.
Sonofabitch.
I've cleaned the spyware and viruses off of this PC twice. And I didn't do any of that bullshit 'sort-of' clean crap. I meticulously cleaned every infected piece of garbage from the PC.
Twice I did this. In two weeks.
The next week, the lady calls me again telling me her internet isn't working properly. I've had enough. I just reformatted the motherfucker and sent it back clean as a whistle. This was last Thursday.
I got a voice mail on Monday from the same lady telling me her PC is completely fucked up again. She managed to royally fuck up her rig in 4 days. Four fucking days after being reformatted she's got SpyShredder and shit on there that I'm going to have to waste more of my fucking time at work removing.
Godfuckingdamnit.
I'm either going to strangle her slowly with an ethernet wire, or I'm going to shit on her face.
-
Tell her she needs to stop visiting the sites she visits. Didn't you check which ones she went to?
-
What are you like rokkin a Firedog or a Geeksquad job?
You have more patience than I.
-
Hey did you get the shield I sent, I lost the tracking number

why not both! think outside the box

How people F up their comps like that is beyond me. My sister in law has sort of the same issues, it's like every computer she touches gets a virus or something. Idk. :(
-
If someone as computer illiterate and DUMB as me can manage to not infect his machine, I don't see how other people manage. Oh wait, I completely forgot how stupid most people are. Nevermind!
Note- to this day I refuse to use my G5 mac to go online AT ALL. It's an editing machine, plain and simple. Paranoid? Maybe, but that thing is building capital. Best purchase of my life along with the editing decks for what it's given me.

Do you do freelance editing?

Sorry raoul, it IS a little paranoid. I've had like two viruses that mattered since I was 14.

95% of the time they are using internet explorer and visit every site on the internet available and never scan their computer for spyware/viruses.

Yeah IE seems to let in more crap than anything else.
-
Yup when I used IE I'd run into some problem monthly. Even after I stopped going to shady porn sites, I'd constantly get spyware shit. I switched to Firefox a couple years ago and haven't had any spyware or popup problems. Now if only this stupid computer wasn't constantly fucking up in other areas...fuck Comp USA >:(

Yah.
And MAF, it's paranoid but in reality I do most of my leisure computer shit on my laptop anyhow so why bother?
-
IE7, folks. IE7.
-
Well I cant disagree with that. At this point why change lol
-
I'm telling you, IITS needs to have some kind of clause that you can only get your computer fixed by them once every x months or something. If you fuck it up beyond that, it's probably your fault anyway, so you should pay out the ass for a Geek Squad diagnostic or something.
-
you should change her OS to mac. it'll most likely solve your problems and she won't know the difference if you just say you gave her a 'new screensaver' or something.

Holy shit that much suck ass
