Virus Removal Services

What's Buggin' You?

Got a virus? Thousands of new viruses are created every week. Almost half of what we do everyday as computer repair technicians involves viruses and spyware infections. How can you get virus removal services and protect your computer from this scourge? It's simple--just call on one of our technicians to thoroughly clean your computer system of infections, install the best antivirus software available, and show you how to avoid trouble with malware in the future.

We wouldn't say we've seen it all, but we've seen hundreds of viruses. A technician without the requisite skills and experience could spend hours chasing down a virus--and they often do.  In a relatively short period of time we can determine that the virus can be eradicated or that we need to take more drastic measures like data recovery and re-installing the operating system.

Feel free to call us if you have questions about viruses at: (954) 448-5989
