Ok
I have spent
two fraggin hours
on the phone
with the most moronic
fraggin tech support person
in the fraggin world
The conversation went
something like this
ME:
"Hi, I am having a problem with my anti-virus software.
I am receiving the following message when I try
to initiate a scan on my system:
'Error: Unable to access license file'
and then it gives me a
no license file found so fuck off buddy
message, I have already tried to
uninstall and re-install it"
HIM:
"hmm did you reboot between
attempts when you re-installed it"
ME: Yes
HIM:
ok well
I want to uninstall it again
and try a couple of other steps
(Side note: having been a tech support person
in a former life, I know why this is done, and primarily it
is to cover your ass in case the person on the other
end of the phone is a moron, but occasionally, there
are some things, like files that don't get deleted by
the uninstall app, that they know to look for, so
I will humor him)
ME: Ok
the uninstall app is running,
is finished
is asked if I want to reboot
HIM: no
go to start
search, find files or folders
and search for
"Ino_F*"
ME: K
no file found
HIM:
hmm
do you have show hidden files enabled
ME: yes
HIM: Can you go to
Tools, Options
ME: (annoyed now) yes
I have show all files selected
and have de-selected
hide system files
HIM: umm
ok
lets go ahead and reboot
ME: ok it is
rebooting
it is up
am logging in
ready
HIM: ok lets re-install
ME: K
installing
it is done
it wants to reboot
HIM: reboot
ME: rebooting
logging in
nope still not working
HIM:
hmm
let me check with my lead
(ten minute musical interlude starring Twisted Sister)
Hmm, lets try uninstalling it
and reinstalling it again
(Repeat)
(for two fraggin hours)
then I got transferred
to someone else
who
fixed it
in less than
5 minutes
happy
happy
FUCKING
joy
joy
