Coworker: This guy's computer is completely messed up...

Me: What? Why?

Coworker: So he installed some virus...

Me: Yeah? And...?

Coworker: And apparently it changed all certificates for antivirus programs into Untrusted Certificates - so he can't install anything that could remove the virus!

Me: That's horrifying..

    He ended up removing the Malwarebytes cert from Untrusted and running it. We recommended reinstalling Windows because fuck that shit, but the customer decided to pick the computer up without repairs because he needs it.
