The system utilities software listed below will help keep your system running and performing within normal operating parameters. The free system clean-up utilities such as Ad-Aware and Spybot will remove the normal internet plaque that builds up on your computer over time. Although these programs can not always remove all of the various adware and spyware these programs have been chosen as a first line of defense for all of our computer systems. If your computer becomes infected with a more serious version of adware or spyware, that these programs can not remove, you should seek professional assistance from a BetterBuilt.com service technician.
