I get that whenever I'm fixing something for someone, even though it's nothing like that level (reprogramming) of repair. Person comes along with my THIS won't do THAT. You spend some time diagnosing, then downloading a few months worth of updates that they never did (which is always a slow thing, no matter how fast your internet is). Reboot. More downloads... Reboot. It's often all that was needed doing. It's regularly 1-2 hours. Worse was with Windows. You'd have to research how to un-install half a dozen browser add-ons that are designed not to be removed, that were included with some free software. Never mind trojans, I think softwere as in werewolf describes them. Now I get asked to un-munge people's mobile phones (which always feel like they've been dipped in sewage). Do you use THIS odd looking app? No, I don't know what it's for, better leave it on...
