I have a peice of software called bigfix for my computer...

I don't know, more details are necessary.
Where did it come from?
What does it do?
How long has it been there?
What process' are it associated with?
O/S?
 
Is your computer an eMachines system? If so, it's probably just their updater/notification software and you can simply uninstall it.

If it's not an OEM computer, you should run a spyware scan to see if anything else is running on the computer that shouldn't be.
 
I picked up a Gateway a few months ago and it had BigFix on it as well. I uninstalled it.

Its supposed to provide product updates, support, or remote assistance if you need it.

That depends on how dilgent you are with updates. If you are good, then get rid of it. If you are like a co worker of mine whose anti virus software hadn't been updateed since 2003, keep it.

I know someone with a gateway desktop. At first I saw some bigfix updates but after a while I never saw anymore. I say uninstall it. It's just another example of bloat.
