Computer Virus Removal FAQs

Can Computer Viruses Go Away on Their Own?

Once a virus infects your computer, it’s there to stay unless it’s completely removed. Some viruses might become less active or dormant, but they’re still in your system, potentially causing damage or spreading to other devices. This is why it’s crucial to detect and remove viruses as soon as possible.

How Do I Check If I Have a Virus?

There are several signs that might indicate a virus infection:

• Slow computer performance: Unusual lags or delays.
• Pop-ups and unwanted ads: Frequent and intrusive advertisements.
• Strange files or programs: Unknown files or applications appearing on your computer.
• Redirected searches: Your browser takes you to unexpected websites.
• Unusual email activity: Spam or unsolicited emails being sent from your account.

How Do I Get Rid of a Virus on My Computer?

While there are some DIY methods and software available to remove viruses, we strongly recommend seeking professional help. Our expert technicians have the knowledge and tools to effectively eliminate even the most stubborn viruses.

Trying to remove a virus yourself can be risky and might lead to accidental data loss or further system damage. Trust the professionals at NerdsToGo to handle the problem efficiently and restore your computer to optimal performance.

Your Business Shouldn’t Suffer

If your business’s IT systems have been compromised by a virus or malicious program, your company’s ability to operate can be compromised. Not only do viruses negatively affect your production, but they can put at risk any information and data that may be stored on your system. Phone numbers, credit card information, and even social security numbers can be lost, or, worse, made available to hackers or other wrongdoers.

Viruses can greatly affect your business, causing any of the following issues:

• Delays and lags, wasting your valuable time
• Security issues, compromising you or your clients’ sensitive information
• Crashing as a symptom of costly internal issues
