Hey everyone, I’m seriously considering picking up this PC and would love to get your take on it.

I wouldn't bother getting tangled up in that; there are plenty of more reasonable applicants out there elsewhere.
It’s a shame. I rode one once when I was a kid, and I remember it stalling for about ten seconds. It was a total nightmare.
Filled it out. Good luck with the thesis! 🙂
Awesome. Thanks for clearing that up!
I think you're right, but how do we actually fix this? I can't seem to get any response from anyone using Gmail accounts.

I probably should. I honestly don't know why I'm still clinging to this free account. I set it up back in high school computer lab—about 12 or 13 years ago now—and it’s been reliable enough until today.

I received an email at my other address that appeared to come from myself. 😁
Essentially, the sender name listed a female friend, but my own email was right there in parentheses.
I actually sent a message to a Gmail account just to try and get them to kill my account immediately, since I don't have the patience to wait 100 days for it to auto-deactivate.
So, I’m running three different free email accounts, and this issue is only cropping up with one of them:
At certain times—even when I’m not logged in anywhere and my computer is completely powered down—this specific account starts automatically blasting out spam containing links to random websites. It targets addresses I’ve interacted with over the last few years, which is incredibly frustrating.
To make things even weirder, the outgoing messages show a different sender name paired with my actual email address, yet nothing shows up in my Sent folder.
I’ve reached out to the email provider’s support team three separate times asking for help, but I haven't received a single response. Today, I actually submitted a request to have the account deactivated entirely because I'm done waiting 100 days for a reply.
I can't wrap my head around why this is happening. Is it an issue with the provider's server, or am I dealing with some kind of virus or spyware on my PC? I’ve run both AVG and Norton antivirus a few times, but they didn't find a thing.
