Spent an hour last night on the phone with my Grandpa dealing with a fake antivir called "ThinkPoint". Malware writers are scum.

- zephyrfalcon 16y agoAh, yes, I had to remove ThinkPoint from my wife's computer a few weeks ago. It's not that hard, it's just a bunch of work, and requires more knowledge than can be expected from the average computer user. Unfortunately, since I "know about computers", this job is always for me (which doesn't really improve my mood, or my opinion of Windows, to say the least). I do wonder how this malware got on the PC, since she is usually careful, doesn't use IE, doesn't download any weird stuff, runs Windows Update regularly, etc.
