Zusammenfassung: | Computers are less troublesome in general than in the past. But PCs are still prone to bugs, conflicts, virus and spyware infestations, hacker and phishing attacks, and - most of all - user error. Unfortunately, tech support from computer and software companies can be timeconsuming to access, difficult to understand, and pricey. PlumChoice Computer Help (http://www.plumchoice.com) of Bedford, MA, is a company that offers an alternative. PlumChoice is targeted toward small and home offices as well as personal users who aren't tech gurus. Tips from company president Ted Werth about how to prevent the need for tech support in the first place include: 1. Use antivirus, firewall, and anti-spyware programs, and keep them current by regularly installing updates. 2. Update Windows regularly. 3. If you're experiencing a glitch, turn off your PC, wait a minute, and then turn it back on. |
