1. Analysis
Finding out and understanding what sort of virus we are dealing with is crucial to the virus removal process. Different viruses target different parts of the computer and operations.

This can take as much time as removing the virus, if not more.
Do the viruses get on my computer by themselves?
After the removal process has finished the first question I always get is, “Will the viruses come back”. The answer is a complex one and customers usually don’t like it.
I often tell them, its really up to them. The viruses virus removal townsville find aren’t alive, they are human made, computer generated code and all they appear to have a mind of their own they don’t. They follow a specific set of instructions made by human beings.
In most cases the user (owner of the computer or laptop) has downloaded the virus by mistake. And although some viruses can propagate to your computer through emails etc. We have found most have been downloaded by the user. And if the user has downloaded it once, they can do it again.
So my finial answer is yes it can come back and you must be a lot more careful what you look at, where you go and what you do. We often get click happy when on the internet but we really need to concentrate and question everything we click on!
