Say thanks to Essexboy
« on: October 20, 2011, 02:01:40 AM »
Well, I've thought to start this thread a lot of times.
Essexboy is one of the most useful guy round and almost irreplaceable. Many of us have similar knowledge on helping, but Essexboy almost unbeatable when it comes to cleaning and virus issues.
A lot of users here want to say a big thank you for him  :)

Though I haven't needed his help yet (touch wood) I do come here regularly to have a read,and I'm always amazed at how helpful (and patient!) Essexboy and others are on this site.
So definitely a BIG thanks from me.

essexboy...our resident malware master :)

Someone who has helped me a couple of times. Be it with a friend's machine that needs his expertise, or a stubborn startup entry that he can remove with one line in OTL.

A much overdue thread for someone who spends time here helping fellow avast users.

As well as that, he is also helping to keep the tradition of helping people with computers alive as he teaches his craft at Geeks to Go. All in his free time.

Thanks EB.

Gotta love his sense of humour too ;D

It will be difficult to be fair with his attention and dedication to the forum users only posting a vote.
Hope avast team recognize that ;)

Well what to say? Essexboy is one of our trained malware cleansers, and a very active one as we all know. He is sometimes assisted by other qualified malware cleansers, like oldman, now training others, etc.
I feel proud that I was the one who suggested originally he would go to geeks2go to get his online outbuilding there. We interchanged many a PM in the mean time where I asked him to help victims and he knows to do that like no other can. Essexboy, the avast forums owe you a lot,

Even though I have never requiered of your services yet. I always recommend members in the Spanish Forum to seek your expertise. Big thump up for you  ;D . Let´s not forget others like DavidR, Pondus, Polonus, Asyn... Who pitch in to prepare the members to get the right logs to be posted.

Regards for all of you and big thank.
