Microsoft has issued an “out-of-band” critical software update.  They are calling the severity “Critical”. That means there is a major vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer that they did not wait around for their usual patch time to fix.  It is THAT important.

To fix this: Run Microsoft’s Windows Update and install the recommended updates TODAY.

If you need help, you can bring your system in to Just Works and we’ll take care of you and your computer.

Almost all Windows computers slow down over time. The way Microsoft patches the operating system for security does this. But a real slowdown is likely something else. Perhaps you have too many unneeded things running in the background, or perhaps you have a virus. Did you know that many people have viruses and trojans on their computers and never notice it? These can cause criminals to send spam from your computer or worse, capture all your passwords and bank information, leading to identity theft.

So if your computer is running slow or doing odd things you should get it looked at by a professional. At Just Works, we have the knowledge and the tools to clean and optimize your computer to run as smooth and fast as it can.

Bring it in to our shop at 419 Amherst St. next to Boomer McLoud and Dominos and we’ll give you a free estimate.
