Hi All

Hello Everyone,

My name is Ovi. I have a problem with my Compaq Laptop. Its very slow. I am trying to rule out malware but the laptop is 7 yrs old so it's been around the world with me.

Anyway, this is just a test. I don't want to waste anyones time by postig something in the wrong thread. I look forward to being on this site.

Later,

Ovi

 

Hello and welcome to the Major Geeks Forums Ovi1!!

(Drizzles waves his arms around as if showcasing the forums) :-D

About your possible Malware problem, try this first.

If that doesn't work, then you should re-post in the Malware Removal area, but ONLY after doing the above instructions (in the link).

Good luck, and again, welcome! :major

 

Welcome aboard ovi! There are fine people here, very intelligent as well as kind and helpful. I'm no geek, though I am enjoying learning bits & pieces from these folks.

You're obviously polite and considerate of other folks time. I like to watch these MajorGeeks help folks, and especially when the folks being helped are thankful and gracious to the Geeks.

Cheers!


P.S. How (or to whom), may I report obvious spam!

 

Thanks Dr M.

I'm having fun just learning a little bit by bit. And now I know how to address that when I see it... What if I am not sure if it is spam? I suppose the admins/mods will be the judge of that... If there are multiple spam' posts, should I report them each, or will one suffice, and the mods will sort it out? Thank you Sir!

 

Likewise, thank you, good to see you here as well.

I very much appreciate you and your colleagues in Malware. You folks work hard at helping others and reading the threads is heartwarming to me. I especially enjoy the folks who are most gracious when receiving your assistance!
