Hi John
I do this sort of thing every day. I did 3 today and have 2 more running
when I left my shop. You need to find someone that really knows what they
are doing. We really know what we are doing and I would estimate that in the
past 12 months we maybe have not been able to fix 2, that required a system
reinstall.
The Big box guys send people to us all the time, because we are that good.
We could fix it remotely as long as you still have an connection to the
internet, and you might even though you cannot get on. But I don't want to
make is seem I am using the list to get business. I am not, Just trying to
help you out if you are really stuck. We normally charge $99 flat rate (this
is 1/2 the rate of the big box stores)
If you want, I will fix it for half that as I will give my end up, but we
have a rule here that my son and I can do stuff for free for each of our
friends, but we cannot give away the other persons money.
Anyways, either find someone local that really knows their stuff or you can
give us a call.

Subject: [Shop-talk] computer virus question
my work computer took a dump... it would not access the internet even though
the wireless modem and the hot spot card were talking... took it to the
geek squad and they said it was full of viruses and one of them ate my op
system files and the proxy config for the internet...
asked why my avg virus didn't catch it... they said they (the virus writers)
write them to get past them... well duh...
so I'm getting a new box... but I'm wondering what software I can find to
clean up the old system and make it useable again... anything I can
download
(without a virus) that might work at cleaning it up... I run my avg and
keep
it up to date... use malware and spyware watchers also... I'm still
wondering what happened... I'm not as savy as I used to be on this stuff...
suggestions or offers of rope to tie to this anchor...
tia
john
I'm sarcastic... what's your superpower ?
