Mark your calendars: This Wednesday is not only the day it's okay to eat all the candy you want, it's also the day you can get free tech support from CyberDefender. Here's the full scoop:

On Wednesday, October 31, any computer user can contact CyberDefender at 877-377-3765 for free comprehensive technical support for their home or office computers.
CyberDefender is a developer of Internet security software, including the free, ad-supported CyberDefenderFREE -- a complete security suite that promises protection against spam, spyware, phishing, and viruses. The free tech-support promotion is designed to promote the company's 24/7 support services, which are available to users of various commercial CyberDefender products. You can call for "any problems" dealing with startup, shutdown, or slow performance. In other words, it doesn't expressly have to be a security-related issue (though I don't expect they'll be able to help you troubleshoot, say, your printer). The offer is good for one call per household, and it ends at noon, ET, on November 1.
