Is Your PC Running Slow or Unprotected?

Millions of PC users across the world are swarming to claim a software that has gone viral this year. This new software is protecting people's computers from hackers, unwanted software and helping speed up performance.

Smart Web User and Tech Enthusiast Simon White investigates a free scan that has just gone viral.

If you have a computer that needs protecting, not running how you would like it or want to increase your security then this may be the most important article you ever read.

They are calling it; "A Game Changer for Internet Users."

An elite team of renowned developers have built a security tool that they believe will be the last piece of software consumers will ever need.

The software uses an advanced algorithm to instantly increase the security while also helping to speed up your system. First, it identifies any hidden threats or online tracking cookies. Then it locates redundant files and cached memory, the files that can make your PC run slow.

The software can be used as an alternative for your Antivirus, or an additional layer of security that they believe is more advanced than any Antivirus product out there. Anyone can use it, and it only takes a few minutes to setup.

Product Manager, David, from ScanGuard, explains; "Our main objective for creating the application was simple. Over the past few months malware has been on the rise, and other Antivirus may be struggling to keep up. We wanted to build a software that gave consumers an additional layer of protection, at the same time help speed up their devices. We beleive with the right care Windows computers can last much longer."

He continues, "People already love the system. Our plan is to give as many free scan licenses away so that it goes viral. We feel good knowing that we're helping make things faster and more secure for our customers."

How Do I Claim This Free Scan?

For a limited time, everyone is eligible for a free security scan. Scanguard are still currently offering the free scan, we advise users to claim it whilst it is still available.

The Scanguard free plan will offer you a version of the software which will monitor your PC in full for harmful threats, unwanted software or potentially dangerous tracking cookies, if the software locates threats you can manually remove them from your system or upgrade to Scanguard's premium plan to have the software remove them automatically.

To maintain peak performance and keep your computer secure, schedule the scan to run every 7 days. It roughly takes 10 minutes to fully analyse your system.

Once you have downloaded the software you can also claim free licenses for all of your devices, including your Office & Home PC, Smartphone & even Tablet.
