ATTN: People w/ FIOS[views:1696][posts:16]__________________________________ [Jun 29,2010 11:10pm - SacNLI ""] Do you have that "In Home Agent" installed on your computer? Mi madre couldn't get the internet to work last night so instead of having me deal with it she called VZ and was told to download this program. It's in the program registry 3 times now and my computer runs like dog shit. Just wondering if anyone has had any problems of a similar nature. Chances are I won't be able to get back online after this so I suppose it doesn't really matter anyway. |

__________________________________ [Jun 30,2010 12:28am - SacNLI ""] Ha. I was able to uninstall the program using the uninstall.exe that was in the folder for said program, but it still shows up in the registry twice even though it doesn't exist anymore. |

I was able to get it to try to do something in normal mode but it's like my computer only functions for a second every 3 seconds. Is it possible my drunk mom couldn't get something to work, so tried to open it 75 times and blew out the processor or RAM chip or something? I'm way too out of the loop for this and don't know if that's real. |

__________________________________ [Jun 30,2010 12:17pm - SacNLI ""] Maybe. I've undone everything that's been done in the past week and am still having the same problems. Trying to avoid reformatting the computer but it may need to be done. |

Never download this type of software; it's all crap. |
