Connect to an OMG Technician

Overview

Connect to an OMG Technician is a software program developed by LogMeIn. It adds registry entry for the current user which will allow the program to automatically start each time it is rebooted. Upon being installed, the software adds a Windows Service which is designed to run continuously in the background. Manually stopping the service has been seen to cause the program to stop functing properly. It adds a background controller service that is set to automatically run. Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. The software is designed to connect to the Internet and adds a Windows Firewall exception in order to do so without being interfered with. The setup package generally installs about 8 files and is usually about 8.52 MB (8,929,685 bytes). Relative to the overall usage of those who have this installed, most are running it on Windows 7 (SP1).
