Virus protection and removal
There once was a time when the Internet was a safe
place. We used to surf the Web without a care, without even knowing what a firewall
was.
Unfortunately, those innocent days are gone forever.
Today the Internet, because of commercialization, freedom and
anonymity, has become a dangerous place in many ways. One way is by
predatory software that unethical people try to install on your computer
without your knowledge. And as time goes on these malicious programs are
becoming more sophisticated.
That's why it's crucial that you use a good firewall
and anti-virus program when you access the Internet. Here at Computer
Resources we can recommend and install excellent programs to protect you, and
they will cost
you nothing beyond our set-up time.
But if you're already infected with a virus, trojan,
or fake anti-virus program, your concern right now is to get rid of it and
get your system back to safe running order.
With our experience, we will defeat the virus and
remove it from your system. Sometimes this is straightforward and quick. Other times the
virus may have strong self-defense mechanisms, or be deeply-rooted, residing outside the operating system in the
disk’s basic boot files. In either case, we will get rid of the malware and
restore your computer’s functionality.
A special note. We have been seeing a lot of what are
called Rogue Antiviruses. These pop up windows warning that you have a
virus, preventing you from using the computer for anything. The irony is
that these warnings themselves are the virus. They are extorting
money from you to turn off the warnings. Do not give these people your
credit card number. You will end up paying to remove that virus many times
over. Call us to have the virus removed properly, once and for all.
If you do have a virus, it is critical to have it
removed immediately, as it can be spying on your activities and raiding your
personal information. Please do not delay getting your system cleansed and
secured. |
