Monitored Online Backup |
Feel secure that your data is protected from loss!
Your precious photos and critical documents need to be backed
up regularly. All computer storage devices are vulnerable to mechanical
or electronic failure. Although failure at any given time is rare,
sooner or later almost everyone experiences at least one hardware
failure. Local backups are a good idea, but (a) they still leave your
data vulnerable to theft, earthquake, fire, and other catastrophes, and
(b) most people do not monitor their backups to ensure they are running
regularly and completely. We will perform daily, continuous backups of
your most critical data, stored securely hundreds of miles away, and we
monitor the backup status around the clock to ensure your backups do not
fail. Your backup software is provided at no extra cost. |

Antivirus |
Feel secure that your computer is protected
from infections. We protect you by using commercial grade
tools that the worldwide Computer Troubleshooters team has found to be
the most effective and least disruptive to your life. The best known
antivirus products are usually the least effective and the most likely
to slow your computer to a crawl. They also tend to be the most pricey
and have the most annoying marketing. We take care of all these problems
for you by installing the best available protection software and keeping
it up to date. Our solutions cover viruses, spyware, worms, trojans, and
rootkits. Your protection software is provided at no extra cost. |

down, preventing any possible theft from happening. Your protection
software is provided at no extra cost. |
