So, I'm sitting here at work. Its only 7pm and I have a long day ahead of me still. I've already been working for over 12 hrs.
We are cleaning up and setting up on the network all the computers for this particular school. Viruses are abundant, adware is everywhere, and everyone of the computers had this insidious app called GoBack. It is suppose to take your computer back to a previouse state when things go wrong. WE DON'T WANT it to do that. The solution? get rid of it. That's when things get messy. It just so happens that GoBack doesn't like to be gotten rid of. Some of the people tried to do it manually without the uninstall. BIG MISTAKE. It seems that this program maintains itself in the MBR and keeps a mini partition with all its data. If you didn't uninstall it just right then you have to fdisk to get rid of it. Luckily we managed to solve the problem and get a method to remove it safely. So that a day in my Work Life. Now I have to start a windows update so I'll catch ya later.
