Virus & Malware Cleanup · Houston

Clean the infection. Then close the door it used.

We remove malware from PCs and Macs, recover what we can, and walk through the passwords and backups that stop the next scare.

The problem this solves

The browser will not stay on your homepage. A lock screen wants Bitcoin. A stranger on the phone says they are from Windows. You need the machine usable again — and you need to know whether the files are safe.

What is included

Cleanup

  • Malware, adware, and browser-hijack removal
  • Account password resets for email and banking you name
  • A call on whether the drive should be wiped or can be trusted

Prevention that fits

  • Browser and update hygiene you will actually keep
  • Backup setup so the next scare is recoverable
  • A short “do not call that number” briefing for the household

Who it is for

  • Anyone who clicked the wrong thing and now regrets it
  • Families sharing one computer
  • Small offices after a shady email got through

How it works

  1. 1. Stop the bleeding

    Disconnect, preserve files if needed, and keep you off fake support numbers.

  2. 2. Clean or rebuild

    We pick the safer path for the data that matters.

  3. 3. Lock it down

    Passwords, updates, and a backup — not a stack of unused security suites.

Questions we hear first

Can you get my files back after ransomware?+

Sometimes, if a backup exists or the variant is recoverable. We will not promise a decrypt we do not have. We will tell you what we can try before you pay an attacker.

Cleanup is done onsite or remotely after we confirm it is safe to connect. Houston-area visits are available the same as other support.
