Virus Removal

Viruses are rampant and despite the best efforts of Microsoft the creators of these horrid bits of code (viruses) are always one step ahead. Its a bit like firefighting for Microsoft each time a fire pops up they douse it but new sparks and flames appear all the time. Read on to see what are viruses and why they are created. Also find out why Dabia are so effective at removing them in comparison to the main superstores.

Computer Viruses

Some viruses are created simply because there are some out there that dislike Microsoft and they continually exploit new ways to make their software look poor quality. It isn't the case that Microsoft operating systems are poor it is simply that they are so popular that can sometimes be their downfall. If Apple Macs ever rise above IBM PCs then you can all but guarantee they will become the new target.

How do Dabia deal with Viruses?

Perhaps its best to describe how PC world will deal with a virus firstly. PC World or the Tech Guys will have 3rd party software and they then run it on your system to remove viruses in one sweep. The problem with this is that new viruses are being created all the time and that software may need a new update to counteract the new threats. Their understanding of viruses is simply not there as they have no knowledge of coding or even what we would consider the basics of technical proficiency. The outcome is you may still have a virus on your system after all their best efforts.

We know how viruses are created and the coding behind them. We manually look for the files created and then set about breaking the protections they have inbuilt in them. For example some viruses create a file and even if you delete it it knows and recreates the file as soon as the system is rebooted. We trick the virus by creating our own files with harmless code using the same file names. We are almost creating a virus within a virus to break it. We then set about cleaning all aspects of the virus away. We do this as quickly as it takes to run a 3rd party virus scan with the skill and stealth that only comes from experience and knowledge.

We can do this in your home or you can drop off your system to our shop for us to look at. If the virus is a low level one we can even fix it via remote support as long as you can still connect to the internet. We believe we are only amongst a handful of companies worldwide who can fix a virus without the need for any 3rd party software.
