Was unable to get on the forum yesterday afternoon and evening.
when do you see that?
All afternoon yesterday all throughout the evening.
Called tech support and let someone named Liz take control on my computer but she wanted to change a lot of things which I didn't want changed. Also sent a support ticket and the email I received said it was a bug.
Getting a ban notice is definitely upsetting.
However, regarding allowing someone to 'take control' of your computer is, under any and all circumstances, a definite no-no. never, never let someone else potentially run amok inside your computer. Especially when you are never never going to get to meet this person, in person, as you would when you would take your computer to a reputable computer repair shop to get it repaired or fixed.
I would not give someone else my bank savings account number and let them do whatever they wanted; the same thing would hold true with computer systems.
Keep in mind that there is a difference between computer issues that happen
on or
inside your system and computer issues that happen
outside of your system. Getting the ban notice is from
outside of your computer system, it cannot originate inside of it. Ban notice was an error and originated outside of your system as it was avast! that sent it (by mistake).
Given that the notice was from outside, never would've allowed someone inside under those circumstances. False pretenses.
