What’s Included:
Our virus removal service consists of seven stages and insures proper removal of all infecting programs both virus and malware related along with preventive measures required to avoid virus infections down the road.
Stage 1: Take Command
One of the main problems many face when dealing with a virus infection is they have lost all control over the basic functions of the computer. Our first stage to the removal process is taking back command of the hardware and software from the virus software.
Stage 2: Virus Removal
Utilizing the latest technology and virus infection trends we begin the process of virus removal using both programs and manual removal methods as we hunt out and eliminate all traces of the virus code.
Stage 3: Triple Check
After all noticeable signs of the infection are gone as well as any files we start checking our work to ensure nothing is missed. During this process we triple check removal with scanning software both online and installed locally on your computer. Only after we get an all clear from these do we move on to stage 4. Should our triple check provide warnings or flagged events, we return to stage 2 and start again.
Stage 4: Patch & Secure
In most cases we find that lacking security and patches is the main reason the computer became infected. To help prevent this problem down the road we install all Microsoft recommended patches and security updates for the operating system you have. We also check many advanced settings to insure the virus software did not alter or reduce your security or modify other settings that could slow down or harm your computer.
Stage 5: Tune-up & Optimization
During this stage we remove un-needed and useless software, patch basic programs, modify or remove start-up items, disc cleanup, disc defragmentation and Windows service modifications if needed.
Stage 6: Final Inspection
Before notifying you of a successful repair we go over our work one more time looking for known symptoms of a reinjection of infected code, performance loss or other problems.
Stage 7: Warranty
We believe this is more important than all of the above as it is a REQUIREMENT for any repair shop servicing virus infected computers. The truth is no repair shop can guaranty you 100% virus removal just as NO ANTIVIRUS can guaranty you 100% protection from getting infected. This is simply the nature of the beast. There is no 100% because there is no standard rules that apply to this type of repair. It is truly a cat and mouse game of virus writers creating new and inventive ways of infecting people and antivirus/repair shops coming up with ways of removing and protecting from the virus in the future. That is why we offer a no conditions, no restrictions 30-day warranty with our service. Although rarely needed after our service, should you find the virus coming back or any other virus regardless on if it was one you had before or not, we will offer you a 100% FREE full system restore.
Additional Notes: For laptop virus removal we need the laptop and power adapter. Prepaying for drop-off service is an option, not a requirement. We also accept walk-ins and payment after all work is complete.
