Looking to clean up your computer and keep it safe? Or for programs to make your machine run more efficiently? Here's a glance at some software Fort Lauderdale computer repair experts recommend...

Child Control 2007

The software lets you set time limits for the Internet and a computer itself, and blocks or filters unwanted content. You can limit access to internal Windows components as well as personal folders. To log activity, there's a protocol to inform you as to what happens on your computer and when. Access is protected via a password.

PDF Snake 4

Ft. Lauderdale computer repair companies recommend this one as much for efficiency as security. An Adobe Acrobat plug-in that performs imposition, scaling, rotation by any degree, PDF Snake also allows for watermarking, stamping, booklet making, and adding Bates numbers to multiple documents. All of these functions can be batch processed.

Registry Medic 5

To fix your registry and improve system performance, Registry Medic is a product worth considering. Windows Registry is a huge database that ensures normal computer operation. Installing and uninstalling software can make your registry a mess, leading to decreased performance and more frequent crashes. Registry Medic uses an engine to scan your computer's registry for invalid entries.

Instead of costly visits to computer services, you can repair or remove registry entries that refer to a file or a folder that has been moved or deleted with the click of a button. You also can scan and remove invalid software data and Start menu data, and kill Trojan horses that use the registry to spread bugs that damage PCs.

Super Video Splitter 4

Requiring little to know technical experience or acumen, the Super Video Splitter helps you split, cut, or trim large files into small clips. Also, using the included video player, you can split a movie file into smaller clips, and extract segments of any size by using the visual editing mode, split a selection into pieces of equal or lesser size automatically, or convert a single file.

Anti-Virus & Trojan 7.51

To detect and eliminate viruses, Trojans, and macro viruses, even new and unknown ones on your PC, Anti-Virus and Trojan have initiated a new system named Guard Ghost to supervise all running processes in the memory system, Windows files, and open ports to search worms and Trojans.

Once a virus or Trojan appears, Anti-Virus and Trojan display a warning signal and eliminate it immediately thereafter.

REMEMBER: A little extra effort in installing and operating these easy programs could save you a bundle in Fort Lauderdale computer repair visits you won't have to pay for down the line.
