Virus and Malware

Clean. Safe. Secure. Get Your Computer Back Under Control.

Pop-ups, random slowdowns, strange behaviour, or your email sending spam? You might be infected with malware - and the longer it stays, the worse it can get.

Middlebyte offers fast, thorough virus removal and digital security cleanup, either in your home or remotely. We’ll fix the mess, protect your files, and help make sure it doesn’t happen again.

What Are the Signs of a Virus?

• Your computer is unusually slow or crashes often

• You’re getting pop-ups, even when your browser is closed

• Browser search results redirect to dodgy websites

• Programs won’t open or strange ones appear out of nowhere

• Friends say you emailed or messaged them - but you didn’t

• You can’t access your files (possible ransomware)

If you’ve noticed any of these - don’t wait. It can lead to identity theft, lost files, or complete system failure.
