on this browser without contacting this number for further information. I call and it's a scam......they're scanning my computer right in front of my eyes.....all my files everything. Then they go to some firewall part on my computer and say oh my your firewall is letting everything in. For the price of 199.00 we will clean up your computer and safeguard it for the life of the computer.....blah,blah,blah....my eyes glaze over and say I think I'll just take it to my local Mac guys and get it fixed. He almost starts yelling at me as how much more that would cost me......I say thanks, but no thanks, I'll stay local. They were in Glendale CA. Although it sounded like a call center, and sorry to say in India. I feel so much better NOT signing up. Whew.
