PC sluggish?  Pop-ups taking over your computer?


http://edalexander.com/art/newsletter/sluggish.jpg


These days it is rare that I work on a computer that does NOT have some spyware, malware, adware, pop-up ads, trojans or a host of other nasty infections.  The net effect of these types of infections is your computer begins to slow down to a crawl.  Even worse, your personal data could be compromised as the authors of these programs steal your data (banking records, credit card information, passwords, documents, etc.).

 

Many people attribute these infections to hardware failure and make needless upgrades or worse yet purchase a new computer unnecessarily. 

 

Avoid expensive upgrades and make your computer run like new with Ed Alexander Technology Consulting “Optimize my PC” program. 

 

Here are the items we scan for and eliminate on your computer:

 

·  Spyware

·  Malware

·  Adware

·  Pop-up ads

·  Trojans

·  Viruses

·  Worms

·  Rootkits

·  Stealware

·  Registry errors

·  Bloated temporary folders

·  Bogus programs

 

 

In addition, we will apply any missing operating system and application patches to better fortify you against threats in the future.  We also verify that your current antivirus program is configured optimally against the slew of new threats on the Internet.  When applicable, we’ll recommend a backup strategy that is custom-tailored to you as a precaution against total loss of your data.

 

In most cases, we are able perform all this remotely so you don’t have to disassemble your computer and drive it anywhere.  In the event that remote access is problematic, we’ll come to you.  In rare cases in which a computer must be rebuilt from scratch, we will credit any costs for cleaning and apply it towards labor in rebuilding your computer from scratch.

 

Call us today to optimize your computer!

Introduction

 

I try to provide value to our readers in each newsletter whether it is free software programs, free cloud service offerings or simply free helpful advice.  In this spirit, I am stepping it up a bit and I am offering a $25.00 referral fee to anyone that recommends my services to a local business in the Carson City, Minden or Garnerville area.  Now you can not only take advantage of my newsletter freebies but also make a few bucks by telling a friend about my services.  I promise to provide the same excellent care of any new business prospect that I extend to you.

The award-winning music service that has taken Europe by storm has now come to U.S. shores.  Millions of tracks ready to play instantly, on your computer and your phone.  Any track, anytime, anywhere.  Did I mention it’s free?

 

http://edalexander.com/art/newsletter/Spotify.jpgWith Spotify, creating playlists is as easy as drag and drop.  Each new playlist is saved to your account, and will be accessible from wherever you use Spotify.

 

It is simple to share tracks and playlists with your friends as well.  If you enjoy music … and sharing it, Spotify may be for you.

Computer Tips

 

Deal Drop

Many Internet sites offer “daily deals” which last for one day on products that are substantially discounted.  You can take advantage of these deals by accessing sites such as Amazon.com, Buy.com, http://edalexander.com/art/newsletter/DealDrop.jpgNewEgg.com, Woot.com, Yugster.com, etc. on an individual basis but wouldn’t it be great if you could access just one site to preview all “daily deals” offered by all sites?  That is where Deal Drop comes in.  Deal Drop is a daily deal aggregator that allows you to conveniently and quickly see what the current sales are for any given day from a variety of Internet sites.

 

While you can access the site on your computer I personally use it on my Android phone. It is also available at the iPhone App Store.  I like to use my phone to find deals as I have my phone with me most of the time where I do not always have access to a computer throughout the day.
