Once I had the guy convinced my AV program was blocking the download of the remote access software he wanted me to use. Tried 4 different things and then he tried to walk me through disabling my AV. It was hilarious, he kept asking me to right click on things in the system tray and tell him what the options were.
"It says disable surfboard, should I click that? "
" yes sir, try that one. "
"oops, I did it and the water us coming under the door. I better turn it on again"
"what do you mean, water is coming under the door? "
" The Surfboard runs our sump pump, I think I just turned it off"
"oh oh, I think you should turn that on again sir.*
'Ok, I will be right back - I think the fish are getting out. "
*screams randomly while surfing CP*
2 minutes later...
" Ok, it's all under control. What should we try now, I really need you to fix this computer, as it is very important to us. "
" Ok sir, try the next symbol, what does it look like?"
"like a pair of boobies"
"sorry sir did you say booties? "
" No, boobs , tits, that's the icon for my pornography"
"oh, I don't think we need to do anything with that one"
"yeah, I think your right, I got some good use out of it just before you called"
20 minutes later....
"Ok, sir, what's the next icon. "
" It's a small rainbow circle, it says Antivirus on it, should I choose disable? "
" oh yes"
"oh, I didn't know we wanted to do that, I knew where that one was. OK it's disabled. "
" Ok let's try to do the download again "
" Ok, which one did I use to download that again? "
" just hit the windows key and type www.teamviewer.com"
"oh, I don't have a windows key, I am using a Mac."
*click*
Had him on the line for over an hour in total, he even called me back twice.
