Here are few other services that I offer. I offer a way for you to have a secure network so that your computer is less vulnerable from unwanted hackers. I will help you to secure your computer from viruses and spyware which can leave you a victim of identity theft. I can install an automated backup systems such as a redundant array of inexpensive disks or a (R.A.I.D.)
Seems like everyone today has a digital camera and store their family pictures on the computer but do not back them up on to disks, memories are lost if something bad were to happen to your computer this is where having R.A.I.D. installed on your computer will help to preserve all those precious memories.
For further information on cost and what types of services I offer you can reach me at 239-671-8336

Every day there are new viruses being developed and spread across the
internet. If you computer is connected to the internet for any period of
time you could be open to viruses and malware.
If you already have a virus it can be difficult to install a
new antivirus program and get rid of it. The modern computer viruses of
today are so advanced that they hide from or disable antivirus programs.
So the removal requires special procedures.
Recovery methods
Once a computer has been compromised by a virus, it is usually unsafe
to continue using the same computer without completely reinstalling the
operating system. However, there are a number of recovery options that
exist after a computer has a virus. These actions depend on severity of
the type of virus.
How viruses avoid detection
In order to avoid detection by users, some viruses employ different
kinds of deception. Some old viruses, especially on the MS-DOS
platform, make sure that the "last modified" date of a host file stays
the same when the file is infected by the virus. This approach does not
fool anti-virus software, however, especially those which maintain and
date Cyclic redundancy checks on file changes.
Some viruses can infect files without increasing their sizes or
damaging the files. They accomplish this by overwriting unused areas of
executable files. These are called cavity viruses. For example, the CIH
virus, or Chernobyl Virus, infects Portable Executable files. Because
those files have many empty gaps, the virus, which was 1 KB in length,
did not add to the size of the file.
Some viruses try to avoid detection by killing the tasks
associated with antivirus software before it can detect them.
As computers and operating systems grow larger and more
complex, old hiding techniques need to be updated or replaced.
Defending a computer against viruses may demand that a file system
migrate towards detailed and explicit permission for every kind of file
access.
History
The Creeper virus was first detected on ARPANET, the
forerunner of the Internet, in the early 1970s. Creeper was an
experimental self-replicating program written by Bob Thomas at BBN
Technologies in 1971. Creeper used the ARPANET to infect DEC PDP-10
computers running the TENEX operating system. Creeper gained access via
the ARPANET and copied itself to the remote system where the message,
"I'm the creeper, catch me if you can!" was displayed. The Reaper
program was created to delete Creeper.
Before computer networks became widespread, most viruses spread on
removable media, particularly floppy disks. In the early days of the
personal computer, many users regularly exchanged information and
programs on floppies. Some viruses spread by infecting programs stored
on these disks, while others installed themselves into the disk boot
sector, ensuring that they would be run when the user booted the
computer from the disk, usually inadvertently. PCs of the era would
attempt to boot first from a floppy if one had been left in the drive.
Until floppy disks fell out of use, this was the most successful
infection strategy and boot sector viruses were the most common in the
wild for many years.
Traditional computer viruses emerged in the 1980s, driven by the spread
of personal computers and the resultant increase in BBS, modem use, and
software sharing. Bulletin board-driven software sharing contributed
directly to the spread of Trojan horse programs, and viruses were
written to infect popularly traded software. Shareware and bootleg
software were equally common vectors for viruses on BBS's.
A virus may also send a web address link as an instant message to all
the contacts on an infected machine. If the recipient, thinking the
link is from a friend (a trusted source) follows the link to the
website, the virus hosted at the site may be able to infect this new
computer and continue propagating.
Do you get the "blue screen of death" with some confusing
message like "HIBERFILE.SYS has unexpected shut down the system ERROR:
0004568x00"?
Do you programs just stop working all of a sudden?
Can't get on the internet?
Your system just wont start at all?
Theese are all signs of system crashes. Don't worry I can help you save
all of your data and get your system back up and running. I have over
10 year of experience diagnosing and repairing PC and Apple computers,
as well as Video Game systems. Just give me a call @ 239-671-8336 and I
can help you get you hardware working like new again.
