Has your computer been running sluggish? This is the option for you!

While our focus with this service is updates and other things to help speed up your computer and potentially increase the longevity of your system, we do also perform base-level Virus Scans, and if we find evidence of infections, we do the deeper level scans. This is essentially 2-services-in-1 as it does include many aspects of our Virus Removal Service.
