Our customers are pleased with our new Mail Security Solution. N-Defender has now checked 1.9 million emails and has passed as clean only 220,000. We are stopping over 88% of all mail as being spam mail. Here is what some of our customers are saying:

"At IST (UK) we have been delighted with the N-Defender Mail Security. Not having to wade through countless spam e-mails every morning frees up time and reduces stress, something the more widely known security systems did not seem to be able to achieve. I would recommend this system to anyone wanting to beat the spam menace." (Chris Schofield, Joint Managing Director, IST (UK) Ltd)

“As a company we rely on our e-mail to communicate quickly to our customers and suppliers, we had identified a problem with Spam emails which was blocking up our system and slowing down our output. Following a meeting with Nevis Computers we agreed to purchase their anti spam solution and this has prevented over 1000 spam messages a day hitting our server. I would not hesitate to recommend this solution to anyone as it is a fantastic weapon against the internet spammers.” (Jamie Illingworth, Managing Director, Illingworth Mcnair)

11.05.07  10th Anniversary - 1000th PC

Nevis Computers celebrated 10 successful years in business by holding 2 Open Days on 19th/20th April.

As part of our 10th Anniversary celebrations, Nevis Computers gave away the 1000th PC ordered completely FREE of charge. This was won by Angela Newark of Martin & Co Shipley and Keighley. This new computer is for their new offices at 103 Saltaire Road, Shipley. Martin & Co is the UK’s no1 letting agent, a franchise organisation with 115 offices across the UK, and Angela has been a customer of Nevis Computers since she began trading from Shipley in July last year. They have now moved into new shopfront premises at 103 Saltaire Road, Saltaire and 65 Low Street, Keighley, to cope with the growing demand for rental property in the Airevalley.

Angela is seen here being presented with her new computer by Terry Brown (Managing Director) and Anthony Stirk (Support Manager).

10.03.07  Spam, Viruses and Spyware

We are still finding users upgrading Norton Anti Virus or Internet Security online and then finding their PC slow or having added problems.

We wrote to the mailing list in October last year advising "After carrying out various tests we have decided to recommend KASPERSKY Internet Security. It will come as no surprise to us that you have not heard of this, but be assured that we recommend this based on our experience of providing security for over 1000 computers. We will be only too happy to provide details of why we recommend Kaspersky but essentially it is quicker; provides more frequent updates and catches more threats than Norton.

Virus Bulletin has just awarded Kaspersky their VB100 award for Windows XP and Windows Vista. During testing, it detected and removed 100% of all the malicious programs used in the test.

The first time you buy KASPERSKY Internet Security you need to buy the full version which is £42.00 + VAT (£49.35) with future renewals being £29.40 + VAT (£34.55). These are now in stock. Call in now for your copy or phone 0870 7704959 to reserve your copy. Alternatively should you wish us to install this in our workshop, our charge is £20 + VAT (£23.50).

28.02.07  Wondering whether to upgrade to Windows Vista?

If you are considering upgrading your existing computer to Windows Vista we recommend you speak to us first to find out whether your PC is compatible or if there are any other issues you should consider before purchase. It has been estimated that 85% of home computers may not have sufficient memory or graphics to run all the features of Vista. There are 8 versions of Vista and it is essential to ensure you obtain the version you require. Changing later by buying an upgrade version is expensive.

Vista is evolutionary. It has improved search facilities, handles photos, music and movies better and has an attractive new interface called Aero which uses 3D graphics to create a translucent glass effect that appears to float above the background screen. It has also been designed to be more secure and hopefully more stable.

Vista Home Basic DOES NOT have the new Aero interface. This only comes with Vista Home Premium, Vista Business or Vista Ultimate.

The best time to move to Microsoft's Windows Vista is with a new PC. If you want to see and test drive Windows Vista and Microsoft Office 2007 we have PC's in our showroom. Come and see the future.

Advise and Quotations are FREE - why not ask!

30.01.07  Microsoft Vista and Office 2007 launch

Microsoft have released their new operating system, Windows Vista. This comes in various versions being Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate. These are now available and we can incorporate them into your new PC. However before you decide to upgrade your existing computer to Windows Vista we recommend you speak to us to find out whether your PC is compatible or if there are any other issues you should consider before purchase.

Microsoft have also released their update to Microsoft Office being Office 2007. Again there are a variety of options being Home and Student, Basic, Standard, Small Business, Professional and Ultimate. Some are only available with a new PC and again we recommend you speak with us to consider which option is best for you or available to you. The new Office 2007 Home and Student is only available as a retail pack or with a new PC and is for non Commercial use.

Advise and Quotations are FREE - why not ask!

June 2005  Special Offer
Experiencing computer problems?  When did you last have your computer serviced?
Just like your car, your computer should be serviced regularly to ensure it is running effectively and not developing problems. Moving parts, like fans, do wear out and can cause your computer to malfunction sometimes resulting in expensive repairs. We provide a HealthCheck service to examine your computer internally,  update your operating system and test for viruses. This is completed in our workshop and normally costs £60 plus VAT excluding any replacement parts needed.
During the month of June we are offering this service at only £50 plus VAT.
If you require details of what is included in our Health Check please contact us or view  http://www.nevis.co.uk/comp_health.php
