Denver PC Tune ups


Does your PC need a tune-up? Denver Computer Class Seniors can help.

What is a PC tune-up?

Just like running our cars, as we use our PC’s we save, delete, and move files around on our hard drives. As we connect to the Internet, we pick up “cookies” or tracking devices that tell organizations what we do on the Internet and how long we stay on their sites. All these activities add to the internal system of our PC’s and slow things down.

Software Updates by Denver Computer Class for Seniors
What about the latest updates that are available for the software programs you have on your PC? Are they current? Have you updated all your files to have the best processing speed and improvements to your software?

Windows Version... Windows 95, 97, XP, Vista, or the new Windows 7?
What about the Windows operating system you use? Are all the updates current for improved performance and protection against hackers getting into your computer while on the Internet?

Computer Virus Protection in Denver
What about your virus protection software? Do you have something installed on your PC? Is it current for the available updates? Is it set up to run automatically on a schedule to alert you of issues on your PC?

A firewall is not just for your home... it's also for your computer
Do you have a firewall that protects your data from someone getting unauthorized access to your personal information? Do you have financial data on your PC that needs protecting?

Having fun with your e-mail or are you frustrated?
Does your e-mail program have the settings organized for maximum protection from SPAM or junk mail? Do you have the filters in the software set where you want them? Does it seem like forever that you wait for your e-mail program to open up and e-mails to load for viewing?
