What your $6 does

Two real things — and a local human.

  • Always-on antivirus (Bitdefender) — updates quietly in the background, no pop-ups to wrestle with.
  • Remote health monitoring — we get an early heads-up about threats, missed updates, or a hard drive starting to fail, so trouble gets caught early.
  • A real local person watching your machine — someone on Arnold St who already has your computer set up.

Isn't antivirus free already? Windows' own antivirus is fine software — but it only reacts. It won't warn you that your hard drive is wearing out, and it won't pick up the phone when a popup scares you. A real person here on Arnold St will.

We don't back up your files for you — but we can spot the warning signs you'd miss, so there's time to save your photos before a failing drive is gone.

Your security comes first

Is it safe to let us in? Yes — here's how.

You're in control of the connection. Any session uses Windows' own built-in Quick Assist — nothing to download. You start it, you watch every step, you can end it anytime, and we never ask for passwords or banking.

The monitoring is one-way. It's like a smoke detector that pings the shop — it doesn't open your files, read your email, or watch your screen. Nobody connects to your computer again unless you call and start it yourself, and the day you cancel, our access comes off with your plan.

Your card is safe. We take it in our shop system, the same secure way we ring up any in-store repair. The $1 just confirms the card works — that card is the only payment info we ever need.

Rather not do it over the phone? Bring your computer to the shop at 746 S Arnold St, Suite 7 — blue door with the stairs, knock if it's locked — and we'll set it up at the counter while you stand right there. Same plan, $1. Get directions →

Getting started

One call, and you're covered.

STEP 1

You call, we take your card

A real person picks up. We take the card in our shop system — $1 today.

STEP 2

You start the secure connection

You open Windows Quick Assist and watch the whole time — or just bring it in and we set it up at the counter.

STEP 3

You're protected

$6 a month after that. To cancel, just call or text — we stop the billing that day, no runaround, no fee.

When you call, here's all you do — about a minute, and we're on the line the whole time:

  1. On your computer, click Start, type Quick Assist, and open it.
  2. Choose Get help, then type in the code we read you over the phone.
  3. Click Allow and watch — we take it from there. Nothing to download.

Not comfortable doing it yourself? We'll guide every click — or just bring your computer to the shop and we'll set it up at the counter while you watch.

Common questions

Honest answers, no fine print.

Isn't my computer already protected for free?

Windows' built-in antivirus is decent software, but it only reacts. Our plan adds a real local person watching your computer's health — including a hard drive starting to fail, which the free tool won't warn you about — and someone who actually picks up the phone when a popup scares you.

Is it safe to let you connect to my computer?

Yes, and you stay in control. Any connection uses Windows' own Quick Assist — nothing to download. You start it, you watch every step, and you can end it anytime. We never ask for passwords or banking. The day-to-day monitoring is one-way, like a smoke detector that pings the shop: it doesn't open your files, read your email, or watch your screen, and nobody connects again unless you call and start it yourself.

Is it safe to give my card over the phone?

Yes. We take it in our shop system the same secure way we ring up any in-store repair. The $1 just confirms the card works — there's no way to set up billing for free. That card is the only payment info we ever need; we never ask for your bank login or passwords.

Why $1 and not a free trial?

Our system can't run a card for $0, so $1 is the smallest honest way to start. It's not a hidden trap — it's $1 today, then $6 a month, and you can cancel anytime.

How do I cancel?

Just call or text. We stop the billing that day — no runaround, no fee — and our monitoring comes off your computer, so our access ends with your plan.

Will you ever call me out of the blue saying I have a virus?

Never. We don't cold-call. If you get a call like that claiming to be us, hang up — it's a scam. You're the one who calls us.

What if I'm not good with computers?

That's completely fine. It's one call, nothing to download, and we won't talk down to you. Prefer in person? Bring it to the shop on Arnold St and we'll set it up at the counter while you watch.

Our promise

  • We'll never talk down to you.
  • We'll never cold-call you claiming you have a virus — if someone does, hang up, it's not us.
  • You start and watch every remote session; we never ask for passwords or banking.
  • Cancel anytime and our access comes off with your plan.
