Virus infections plague PC users and cause data loss/corruption and can lead to various performance related issues. Voree offers solutions for cleaning up and removing those threats and in the worst case scenarios Voree IT solutions can reinstall your operating system and recover any data. We'd like to take a moment to discuss the two various options most of our customers face when dealing with an infection.
The first option Voree offers would be a simple clean-up and removal of those infected files, it's recommended that you bring in your system if you feel you're dealing with some form of threat as quickly as possible.
The longer you leave a system running that's been infected the more risk you take with losing data and potentially facing a reinstall. One of the most typical forms of attack is from outdated and vulnerable applications that most customers either ignore to update or not even aware are available.
With Voree IT Solutions virus removal procedures we not only clean-up those threats but we'll find and update those vulnerabilities as well. The most common vulnerabilities we find our in Adobe reader, Adobe Flash, and Java – leaving these programs outdated leaves your system vulnerable to various threats while you're online. Web pages and online content use these applications to display various images & databases and are often exploited for this exact reason.
It's also critical to note there are a lot of threats that often appear to be legitimate windows alert or appear they may hoax themselves as being a virus cleaner or spy-ware removal tool.
Voree has dealt with various forms of these infections; they often try to trick the user into purchasing a product that does absolutely nothing and are intended to get your credit card information. Often times we hear from our customers that they had valid anti-virus software or they keep their virus definitions and often wonder how they have become infected.
Granted a system running and anti-virus program is better than one running nothing at all but customers tend to forget about those system vulnerabilities that leave them exposed to threats.
We often tell our customers to consider having the latest state of the art alarm system or security system on your home or car but you're leaving your doors unlocked and your windows wide open – you're bound to end up with a mess on your hands. Voree not only wants to clean-up and prevent these threats but we also want to educate our customer and clients to help avoid infections in the future.
Now onto our second option when facing these virus and malicious threats, if you bring your system in for inspection and Voree finds your system is suffering from a severe virus infection that a clean-up just won’t successfully remove or the clean-up may potentially leave your system unstable we'll recommend the fresh windows reinstall.
This procedure is guaranteed to completely remove any traces of the previous infections and/or threats. The bad news about this process is in doing so we're also going to delete and erase all the good content – your software, programs, data, music, etc. All of this content is potentially lost when performing this procedure.
The good news is we do offer recovery procedures, we can often bundle the data recovery into the labor rates for reinstalling windows. Physical data pictures, music, documents is the most commonly recovered – Programs however cannot be copied and will need to be reinstalled. The most common software our customers complain about losing would be Microsoft Office; this software is not included in a fresh reinstall.
If you have your original installation media and license keys we would be happy to reinstall those applications for you at your request.
Data recovery rates do vary based on the condition of the hard drive and the total amount of data. In addition we will also ensure your system has the latest security updates to limit your systems security vulnerabilities.
