Virus Removal & PC Tune-Up in Christiansburg — Typically Fixed Within 24 Hours
Pop-ups, browser hijacks, fake Microsoft warnings, ransomware, or a computer that suddenly crawls — most drop-offs are diagnosed, cleaned, hardened, and ready within 24 hours. If we need to order parts, wait times can vary; we'll tell you before ordering anything.
Serving Christiansburg, Blacksburg, Radford & the New River Valley
A "leave it with us for a week" turnaround for a virus is unacceptable when your computer is how you work, pay bills, and stay in touch. We prioritize virus removal, malware cleanup, and PC tune-ups so most jobs dropped off during business hours are diagnosed, cleaned, and ready within 24 hours. If we need to order parts, we'll give you an honest timeline before anything is ordered.
Real cleanup — not just running one anti-virus scan and calling it done. We remove the infection, undo persistence (scheduled tasks, registry entries, browser hijacks), patch Windows, harden your accounts, and hand it back faster than shipping it off would even get it looked at.
What's included
Typically done within 24 hours
Drop off during business hours weekdays — most PCs are diagnosed, cleaned, and ready within 24 hours. If parts need to be ordered, wait times vary and we'll tell you before ordering.
Full malware & adware cleanup
Browser hijacks, pop-up ads, fake tech-support windows, cryptominers, and rootkits — removed at the source, not just quarantined.
Ransomware response
We'll assess the strain, isolate the machine, recover what's recoverable, and rebuild safely. Honest advice — we don't oversell recovery odds.
Real speed tune-up
Startup cleanup, background services, disk health check, driver updates, temp file purge, and browser reset.
Security hardening

Frequently asked
Is the 24-hour turnaround guaranteed?▾
We typically have virus and malware jobs diagnosed, cleaned, and ready within 24 hours of drop-off during business hours. It's not a hard guarantee — deeply infected machines, hardware faults, or parts we need to order can extend timing. We'll tell you at drop-off exactly what to expect, including if parts are needed.
Will I lose my files?▾
Almost never. Standard cleanup is non-destructive — your documents, photos, and installed apps stay put. If a full wipe is the safer path (rare, but sometimes with rootkits or ransomware), we back up your data first and ask before touching anything.
Do those fake 'Microsoft support' pop-ups mean I have a virus?▾
Usually it's browser-based adware or a malicious extension rather than a system-wide virus — but they need cleaned out properly or they come back. Don't call the number, don't grant remote access. Bring it in.
I paid the ransomware. Now what?▾
Come see us regardless. Whether or not files decrypt, the machine is compromised and needs to be rebuilt safely, and you need to rotate credentials on any account signed in on that PC.
Can you help remotely instead of dropping off?▾
Often yes for browser hijacks, adware, and lighter infections. Deep infections and anything that won't boot need to come in-shop.
What if the same infection comes back after cleanup?▾
If the same malware reappears within 30 days on a machine we cleaned, we redo the cleanup at no additional labor charge.
