Does this look familiar?

Signs your computer is infected

Good virus removal starts with the right diagnosis. Modern malware is quieter than it used to be. If you're seeing any of these, don't enter passwords or bank details until it's been cleaned.

Pop-ups & fake warnings

'Your computer is infected — call this number' screens, constant ads, or a browser that won't close. Never call the number on the screen.

Browser hijacked

New home page or search engine you didn't choose, toolbars that reappear, and searches that redirect to strange sites.

Ransomware or locked files

Files renamed with odd extensions and a note demanding payment. Turn the machine off and bring it in — don't pay.

Suddenly slow or crashing

Fans running hard while idle, programs freezing and a PC that was fine last month. Cryptominers and spyware eat resources quietly.

Friends getting spam from you

Your email or social accounts sending messages you didn't write means credentials were stolen — the computer needs cleaning and passwords changed.

Antivirus disabled or missing

Security software that won't open or update is a classic sign malware got there first.

Questions answered

Virus removal FAQ

Will I lose my files when you remove the virus?

No. Our standard removal keeps your documents, photos and programs in place. In the rare case a system is so damaged that Windows needs to be reinstalled, we back up your files first and quote that separately before doing anything.

How long does virus removal take?

Most cleanups are finished within one business day. Deep infections or machines that need the operating system repaired can take a little longer — we'll give you a realistic timeline when we quote.

I got a pop-up telling me to call Microsoft or Apple. Is it real?

No. Microsoft and Apple never put phone numbers in warning pop-ups. Close the browser (use Task Manager or force-quit if needed), don't call the number, and bring the computer in so we can remove whatever is generating it.

Can't I just run a free antivirus scan myself?

You can, and sometimes it helps. But modern malware hides from the very scanners running inside the infected system, disables security tools, and leaves scheduled tasks that reinstall it later. We scan offline, remove it manually and clean up what it changed.

Do Macs get viruses?

Yes — mostly adware, browser hijackers and fake 'cleaner' apps rather than classic viruses, but they slow the Mac down and can steal passwords just the same. We clean Macs regularly.

Should I change my passwords after a virus?

If the malware was capable of stealing information — and many are — yes. After the cleanup we'll tell you which accounts to update first and help you turn on two-factor authentication.

Where can I read more before I bring it in?

The FTC has a plain-English guide on spotting and avoiding tech-support scams — worth two minutes if you've seen a scary pop-up. Either way, virus removal in Turlock starts with an honest look and a written quote.
