I hate going over there because one small fix turns into a million other fixes...I then end up being there for 3 hours and get some cookies for my assistance.

that's why my caveat for helping any family with computer issues is that i get to wipe it and do a fresh Windows install and lock it down as necessary. even better if they want to buy a new PC and they just give me the money to build one. i used to get a call from my brother and his wife about once every week or two for some issue with their HP POS, but when the motherboard died on it and i built them one from Memory Express, i haven't gotten a troubleshooting call since
