Virus Removal

Viruses slow up your computer and can be a danger to your files. Spyware is just as nasty and will sit on your computer stealing information.

You’ve probably got software to protect against both, but it makes sense to update it regularly by opening your software and finding the update button. It’s also a good idea to set up a regular virus scan on your computer at a time that’s not going to be inconvenient.

PC HomeCall recommends you get your FREE AVG Anti Virus software (and all freeware) from a secure website like www.filehippo.com where you can find many safe and secure freeware programs for all manner of computing.

Beware of any false claims of removing a virus within 1 hour.

Removing a virus could take hours, if not days, depending on how severe and how long the virus has been left to multiply and spread. Your virus will return if your computer is not cleaned thoroughly, with double the impact. Your worst case scenario is a fresh install of Windows so it’s imperative that you get into the habit of backing up your important files and folders.

The best solution for these repairs is off site, with your machine being benched and all the necessary software run through a machine for a successful virus removal. Virus, spyware and malaware repairs can also be achieved via remote assistance which is available if have an internet connection.
