Key Benefits
Be Safe and Secure
Virus Removal Some viruses are very destructive. Some will erase information from your computer. Some will even prevent you from starting up your computer. Some will make your computer run slow. And some will send themselves to people you have in your e-mail address book . If you have a virus or suspect that you do and either don't know how or have the means to remove the virus, please call IMMEDIATELY. You will be given prompt, immediate attention. Spyware, Adware and Malware Spyware, adware and malware are programs that get downloaded into your computer when you visit certain websites or open an email attachment. They send back information to wherever you received them from. They can tell someone what websites you visit, record your keystrokes, steal your passwords and personal information. They can also change settings in your computer, take over your computer, and delete files. These programs can add up over time and cause your computer to run slow. If you do not have any anti-spyware software in your computer there are several that you can download use for free. I've provided links for these programs on my Free Software page.
Fortunately it's very simple to remove them from your computer and the really good news is there is software out there that's FREE. Be sure to update these programs before you run them so that they have the latest definitions just as you need to do for anti-virus programs. Free Computer Security Check Below are three sites you can visit to check the vulnerability of your computer. Symantec has one site that will allow you to choose either a virus scan or a security scan. McAfee has two separate sites. These scans will alert you to any vulnerabilities that may be found but will not fix them. It will be up to you to purchase anti-virus and firewall software to remove any threats that are found.
