Deep malware removal, OS hardening, and security software setup. Your data stays safe. Your machine comes back clean, fast, and protected.
spyware, ransomware, adware, rootkits, and PUPs eliminated
not just suggested
A slow computer, unexpected pop-ups, a hijacked browser homepage, or a disabled antivirus usually means an infection, and a quick scanner pass rarely clears it. Born Again Computer Repair does proper, layer-by-layer malware removal for clients across Pittsburgh, the South Hills, and Washington County: viruses, spyware, ransomware, adware, rootkits, and the potentially unwanted programs that bundle in with free downloads. Drop the machine at the Eighty-Four, PA shop, or for software-only infections, schedule a remote session.
We run multi-engine scans, then go through the places malware actually hides: startup entries, browser extensions, scheduled tasks, and registry keys. Malicious files and persistence mechanisms are removed, Windows is updated, and security settings are hardened so the same infection does not walk back in. Protection software is configured and running before the machine leaves, not just recommended. Your data is backed up before any aggressive remediation, and a second-pass scan confirms the machine is clean before you get it back, with a plain rundown of what was found and how to stay protected.
Bring your machine in or schedule a remote session for software-only infections. For severe cases, in-person is faster and more thorough.

Common signs: your computer is suddenly slow, you're seeing pop-ups you didn't expect, your browser homepage changed, your antivirus was disabled, or your files seem scrambled. If something feels off, it probably is. Bring it in for a free look.
We can remove the ransomware infection itself in most cases. Recovering encrypted files depends on the specific ransomware variant and whether backups exist. We'll be honest about what recovery is realistic for your situation.
For most home users, Windows Defender (built-in and free) combined with a good browser and safe habits is sufficient. We'll configure it properly and show you what to watch out for. We can also install and configure paid options like Malwarebytes Premium if you prefer.
Our goal is always to preserve your data. We back up your files before aggressive cleaning. In rare cases where the OS is too compromised to save, we'll discuss options and won't proceed without your approval.
Pricing depends on the severity of the infection. We'll quote you upfront after diagnosis, no surprises. Complex infections involving rootkits or ransomware may cost more, but you'll know the price before we start.
