NJ Computer Repair - New Jersey

Ok so I do not live too far from the Best Buy computer store.  That is where the home of the Geek Squad is.  I used one of my PC’s and infected it with a few known website viruses that I know are not easy to remove.  Ithen called up Geek Squad to see what they can do and to see if they are good at NJ computer repair.

So I called them and made a appointment for the following day to fix my computer issues, that I purposely infected, but they did not know that and still don’t know that.  All of the spyware viruses were common enough that anyone can get them at any time, I didn’t do anything off the wall.

So Geek Squad shows up at my place in their little voltswagon buggy, I gotta say I do love those cars.  The gentlemans name was Rick who had his name on his little nametag.  I showed him the computer and just sait it was getting popups, which it was, and I wanted him to fix it.

I didn’t have any anti virus software on the computer he said, which he was correct.  He then began selling me on a subscription to the very poor virus software called Norton Anti virus made by Symantec.  I of course know how bad this software is, because they spend all their money on advertising and not on R&D.  So I told him yes if that will remove all my viruses then yes I will pay for it.  I knew it would not.

I was right, he stayed there for an hour installing and running the virus scan and of course he and Norton could not remove the popups or locked files in the system32 folder.  Big surprise.  So I told him I can’t pay him if he can’t remove the viruses.  He then began saying how they have to take it back to the office at Best Buy and I might need to reinstall  Windows XP.  I laughed inside knowing that I did not have to and how foolish he looked.

I told him ok and that I might see another New Jersey Computer Repair company first.  He left, I downloaded AVG anti virus, the free program for home uses.  What do you know, it removed all the popups and spyware from the computer on its first run.

Result

Do not call Geek Squad if you have comptuer repair issues in New Jersey.  They will just try to get your money by selling you their Norton Anti Virus that you do not need because the program is horrible.  Download AVG antivirus it will probably save the day for you.
