Q: After you remove viruses from my computer, do you guarantee they will not return?

A: Unfortunately, no person or program can guarantee a computer will not become infected with spyware or viruses. However, we are proud to say that once we have serviced any virus infected computer, it receives a clean bill of health before leaving! Naturally, a computer using any Microsoft Windows operating system should always be using an anti-virus program.
