Malware, Scam, and Security Cleanup
Many customers refer to any computer issue as a “virus,” but modern threats are more often scams, unwanted software, or malicious programs installed through social engineering rather than traditional self-spreading viruses. Security research shows most current threats involve phishing, scams, or other forms of malware rather than classic viruses.
ErlenTek provides complete security cleanup to remove malicious software, fraudulent remote-access tools, and unwanted programs while restoring system stability.
