If you feel like disabling Computrace on your 'new' computer.

First off, Computrace is a software implanted in most fairly new and some older models of computers. In addition to being a tracer software for lost or stolen computers(if properly activated by the user or buyer..), it has a fairly high amount of spyware and can be vulnerable source for viruses as well, so disabling it before it becomes active or stays vulnerable in deactivation is a much better idea.

Message me with any questions.

The basic way to do this is by entering the BIOS setup of any computer during boot and switching the Computrace security interface to disabled, however some computers require a more complex shutdown of Computrace.

There are lists of how to enter your BIOS setup spread all throughout the internet, a Google search for your model and how to enter it during boot will definitely lead you the right direction. The next steps can however can be very tedious, because normally every different model of computer has a different BIOS setup and interface. Like I said, contact me for details or questions.

I used this on my computer and it helped get rid of some spyware that had been bugging my software for quite some time. I had never gotten the Computrace system setup for my computer, so having it with it being deactivated instead of disabled was entirely useless.
