I didn't intend the comment as a snide one. In my line of work, it's not
unusual to find someone posting for help for a few seperate issues withen a
few days and then find out the person isn't some nice neighbor but a pc
repair shop technician who's looking for a handout.

I won't apologize for my natural skeptism, but I do apologize if I have
errored in your case.
