Non-Compete Agreements: Consultant Agreement - Clause/Validity

My question involves labor and employment law for the state of: MA

I am offered an full time employment(FTE) opportunity from a company("Client") to which I am currently providing computer services as a consultant for over 2 years now.

I currently work for a Consulting firm who contracted with the Client's preferred-Vendor("Vendor") to place me with this Client. I have signed a agreement with the Vendor at the time of taking the contract and I am afraid if this agreement can cause issues if I now accept the FTE offer from the Client.

The agreement essentially says I cannot provide "computer consulting services" to the client during the contract term or 1 year after the contract expiration unless I am placed by and through the Vendor.

1. Since the agreement says I cannot provide "computer consulting services", do I need to worry about considering the FTE/direct-hire opportunity from the Client?

2. I signed this agreement in June 2014 for the initial contract which was for a term of "6+ months". The contract got extended 3 more times 6 months each but I did not sign any new agreements. Is the agreement still valid?

Appreciate any comments/advices. Thanks!
