Computer Repair for Hickory

Computer Repair for Hickory residents and businesses can be frustrating and expensive. Don’t waste your profits on equipment that is destined to slow you down again and again. If your PC is not worth repairing, we will make a recommendation BEFORE incurring a large bill.

Computers prices have dropped dramatically over the last decade and trying to keep that old desktop alive can only absorb your money and increase your stress.

Sometimes it’s best to replace than repair. We do not sell computers we repair computers, so there is no vested interest in selling you another PC.

Call a name you can trust, call CET!

Hey football fans! There’s a new “virus” targeting your computer!

Hey football fans! There’s a new “virus” targeting your computer! Sorry, not you Steelers, Giants and Panthers fans, this “virus” is targeting the other football fans – World Cup fanatics.
As the World Cup tournament for 2010 gets ready to kick of in South Africa, a new computer infection has been released. The malware is part of an attachment sent by email. The email references the World Cup tournament this summer and offers a free tourism guide for the nation of South Africa, the host of this year’s competition. The attachment is a PDF document and uses a security issue in Adobe Reader to infect the victim’s PC. While this infection has not been a big problem in the US, other parts of the world are being hit harder because of their love for the World Cup tournament.
Updates for Adobe Reader have been released to fix the security issue but software that has not been updated is still vulnerable. Make sure you update your applications on a regular basis, update your antivirus software and avoid unexpected attachments.
