“Why am I getting so many pop-up ads?”

Most likely, your computer is infected with one or more programs commonly known as spywareadwaremalware, or several other names. These programs are designed to place ads on your screen (sometimes when you’re not even online!) in order to sell a product or service. Many of these ads are deceptive — some will say things like “Your system is infected! Click here to clean it now” or similar phrases. Windows will never change your desktop background or pop up infection notices in your taskbar (the area at the bottom-right corner of the screen). If this has happened, it is highly recommended to get your computer cleaned. Some of these programs can stay resident in memory even while running a scanner on your hard drive; as a result, when the scan is complete, you can still be infected! At Express PC Solutions, we are your number one source for removal of these programs. Most times we can completely clean the system without any data loss, even if you don’t have a recent backup of your files.
