I just got my computer back from a guy who fixed
it. It is refurbished so the problems came with the computer.
Anyway I just looked and the "Teamviewer" was downloaded onto my desktop.
I didn't download it.
So I think he did. But why?

Odds are he's not planning anything nefarious but better safe than sorry.
