Virus & Spy Removal
With the amount of viruses and malware circulating the internet, even the most security conscious user can still be at risk from a virus infection. Even if you have the latest antivirus software installed on your PC, some viruses are so sophisticated that even the best antivirus software doesn’t offer complete protection.
While many types of virus infections are obvious to the user, many forms of malware including adware and spyware can go undetected and can cause all sorts of mayhem including secretly ‘recording’ your usernames and passwords as well as hijacking your computer to be used for attacks on other computers and websites.
Depending on the level of infection, some virus removal jobs can be completed quite quickly while others need a lot more time to enable our various tools to scan the contents of your hard drive(s) and locate the threat.
