    Not really, unless I've truly allowed a PC called "the beast" to be my kid's babysitter.

    So, I came home the other night and found this:

    upload_2016-4-21_21-30-33.png

    and he was taking a series of photos to turn into an animated gif. All good, I guess, but he doesn't know how to actually make one. I promised to show him later.

    Next thing you know, he's downloaded something dodgy (just adware, hopefully), panicked and deleted it but now - long story short - his pc won't connect to the internet via ethernet or wifi.

    I've run a few diagnostics but nothing has shown up. I guess tomorrow I'm going to have to take it into my tech guy but that feels like giving up. Any ideas what he might have done?

    Win 10 btw
