Congratulations!
Your computer was cleaned by PandA!
One or more programs may have been
installed to facilitate this cleaning;
Sunbelt Software’s CounterSpy (My #1 choice at home and in the
field)
Lavasoft’s Ad-Aware SE Personal (an
old favorite, and recently updated)
Safer-networking.org’s Spybot S&D (also a favorite, and I love the
name!)
Other software as was necessary to
clean your machine.
Other settings on your machine may
have been changed as well.
The above programs are either free
or trial versions. You are urged to run these programs regularly (daily!) to
maintain good computing health. In some cases, scheduled scans may have been set
up to facilitate this. You are also urged to register (i.e., pay for) these new
programs. PandA earns a small commission on the sale
of Sunbelt Software’s CounterSpy, but no commission on Lavasoft’s Ad-Aware SE Personal or
Safer-networking.org’s Spybot S&D. I have found these programs to be the
best in helping remove and prevent spyware/adware/malware/crapware infestations.
YMMV
In the event you had no antivirus
software installed, it is highly recommended that you install one antivirus
program immediately. DO NOT USE more than one antivirus program at a time on
your machine! Disastrous results could occur. Completely uninstall any old
software before installing new software (when changing programs). Updating your
software does NOT require you to uninstall first. Call or email for
recommendations.
Your machine is clean, and my work
is guaranteed (If I can’t clean it, there’s no charge). I cannot be responsible
for your computing habits, however, and reinfestation
may occur. Please try to compute safely. A complete discussion of how this
occurred to your particular machine will not be included in any email, due to
sensitivity issues. You may call or we can visit and I can outline it for you if
you wish.
Although I am very expensive, I am
also very thorough. All reasonable care was taken to preserve your machine while
cleaning any and all infestations, but as was previously stated some settings
may have changed, and some software may have been installed. In the event that a
complete re-installation of your operating system was necessary, you may have to
reinstall software that was previously installed by you. In this case, the
minimum charge is one hour ($75.00 business/corporate rate, $50.00 residential
rate).
Please tell your friends if you are
happy with my work, please tell me if you are not.
