If you DON'T make any profit off of it - like scamming anyone you talk to out of money/gifts.
Is it a crime? Fraud or Identity theft?

I was desperate for a solution,so I bought this program. I don't know if I got fooled or what. The main problem I wanted it to fix was the "IE Script Error" that I keep getting on my Outlook Express. It says everything is fixed and that there are no "bugs", but I am still having problems. If anyone has heard of this program or has actually used it, I would like to have your input. Thank You in advance !!!!!!

I'm 13 years old and I have a Gateway laptop. But at school my friends have like an iMac, Apple, Sony Vaio, or HP and I feel really embarassed that I have a Gateway because I heard that it's not a good brand. But I'm really okay with my laptop because it works great and the only reason my parents got me a laptop was so I could do my essays. But there's other stuff I do with my laptop like surfing the net, chatting on IM with my friends, playing games, music,etc. So is Gateway an OK brand or really poor brand because my parents said that I'd get a new high tech laptop that's a really good brand in like college or when I'm around 17-18.

This virus immediately sends a message saying to open a file to all my IM contacts, using a line such as "Look at this beautiful sunset. Man I wish I was there to see it with my own eyes." or "OMG, i found ur pic on cuteornot.com! im not kidding either!!!" or "sry about the messup i fixed the pic! Try it one more time plz". If you open the file then you get the virus.

A poster in the Rants and Raves section said he had my IP addy, then got my name, wife's name and SSI numbers. Is this possible if I've never emailed him? Could he get it from a CL posting?

A couple months ago I got a thin line down my lap top screen, then another one... and another... and now its up to about 9 random skinny lines. So obviously its slowly going to be covered in lines making it very difficult if not impossible to see the screen. What may have caused this and how can I fix it?

After installing COMODO Firewall 3.0, after reboot computer freezes on startup when the COMODO service is being started. If I disable the service with msconfig everything is fine. I thought it might be windows firewall blocking it, so I disabled it, no help. I have not tried to stop Avast! from running, or windows defender, yet, could either of them be blocking the service? has anyone else had this problem? I have searched to no avail.

In 2004 I got a Dell inspiron 1150. A few months later it needed a new motherboard and fan.

For the last two years it's been so slow it's unusable. They've tried everything!
- reinstall OS
- memory upgrade and by the way i got fatal errors from my new dell memory card which they replaced for another one, which gave me the same error!
- change windows setting
- delete unecesary files
- last week they put in another fan
- last night they put a new harddrive, processesor, motherboard, RAM, and another fan, and guess what????
it gave me another fatal error and then it doesnt recognize the CD to reinstall windows.

You'd think customer support would be helpful? No they refuse to realize that computer is defective and must be replaced. Regular customer support gave me the special claims unit which continues to invent issues just so they don't have to replace it. Then every time I say enough is enough they say ok I'll call you back in 20 minutes, and then I'm waiting hours! AH!!
