My laptop has a major virus that will not allow me access to any of my programs or broadband. My security advisor from Malwarebytes said it can be repaired by a service which brings me to my question. Is there a local computer repair service and who anyone would you recommend? Thank you Steve

14 Apr '11

Good Day! I have 3 special dresses that I need adjusted, and really do not want to hand them to just anyone. Do any of you have repeated good experiences with a certain tailor/dress maker? The work is not simple. I would very much appreciate some recommendations. Thanks, Joy -- Happy are those who bear their share of the world's pain: In the long run they will know more happiness than those who avoid it.
