Haha, good to hear. Close call you had there. Almost ended up like that scammers ep of futurama.

I work in a bank and you end up hearing about a lot of different types of scams. People still fall for the "I'm calling from Microsoft (assumes most people run Windows) you seem to have a virus. Pay us xx.xx amount to fix this" one. Seems to work a lot. I've had the call and they're quite convincing.

Saying that, a lot of people you wonder how they manage to get themselves up in the morning let alone keep their bank details private.

Maybe its more of me not working atm and need something to do I guess. idk.. I'm happy to help anyone with their system if asked. I only charge when I have to put my hands on it. And 2 days to fix a "hard drive" seriously? I can fix MBR in 20 min.

I don't think I came off as a smartass, but if I did, sorry. I don't ever mean too.

Not in the least.
