lol at these stories.
probably my funniest... two years ago a buddy of mine, who knows nothing about computers, bought his first pc. he was so proud. he called me up and asked me to come over and set everything up and install everything for him. he was so excited.
i left on a saturday and he was as giddy as a schoolgirl with his new toy.
monday afternoon i get a call from him.
chris: yo man, uh... my computer is fucked. it won't do anything! it's freezing all over the place and i'm getting screen after screen after screen and i can't close them.
me: really? ok. i'll swing by after work and check it out.
so i'm thinking i must have been something with the install.
nope.
when i get there and check it out his pc had been completely taken over by a virus as he had somehow downloaded and installed every spyware app known to man.
how?
porn sites.
ugh.
so i reinstalled everything from scratch. did a complete wipe of the entire system and had to give the guy this talk.
me: ok, you know when the thing pops up and it says 'you have one new message waiting for you online, when you're already online...'
chris: yeah
me: DON'T CLICK ON IT YOU FUCK!
it was madness.
no... it was sparta.
