| Virus Warning! |
There is a nasty virus going around called “Win Antivirus 2008/2009” We have cleaned up over a dozen computers with this particular infection in the last 2 months. This program acts and looks like an ANTI-virus application. Once it gets on your computer, it tells you that you are INFECTED and that you must purchase the program to resolve the infection. DO NOT give them your Credit Card information!This virus is spreading a number of different ways. Just the other day I got a very convincing ‘phishing’ email that appeared to come from Fedex. It gave me a link to the Fedex website and told me that they were holding a package for my pickup. I clicked the link, and it showed a page that looked like fedex.com and it wanted me to download a ZIP file. I knew it was a scam so I did some research and found that the file they wanted me to download was Winantivirus 2008.
Some customers have said they got it after installing a browser plugin that a website said was required to see a video.
If you see this type activity on your computer, call us right away. 499-9587

The older a computer gets, the slower it runs.
Why?
There are several reasons why a computer slows down over time. Here are a few reasons:
1. The hard drive gets fragmented from daily use, and this causes it to run inefficiently.
2. There are unnecessary programs in the Startup menu that are opening automatically when the computer starts. These programs use your system memory even when you aren’t using them, thus slowing down your system.
3. Your computer may have a small or large virus/malware infection causing everything to run slowly.
4. Lack of System Memory (RAM): Computer software is constantly becoming more demanding on hardware. If you bought a computer that ran fast 4 years ago but have loaded some newer software onto that computer, it runs slower because the newer software is placing a heavier load on the older hardware. The result is everything still works…slowly.
We offer FREE diagnostics on your computer. All you need to do is drop off your computer tower to 650 E. Diamond Ave Evansville, IN. We will check over the entire system and give you a quote for what it will take to get it running quickly and reliably again. OR call us to schedule an on-site service call. 812-499-9587
