Dublin laptop repair recommendations

yahoo_moe

Just wondering if someone could recommend somewhere in Dublin to perform a complete virus scan and removal service and general PC clean for my sister's laptop (Dell). I haven't seen the exact problem myself but she rang the other day and mentioned that a scan had shown up a number of problems, with one worm supposedly targetting credit card details (which she'd just entered online the night before). So she obviously wants a complete scrub - where's reliable?

Normally I'd help her myself but as I use a Mac, virus/security stuff if my weak point

I usually do it for people but I don't know anyone in Dublin, but it shouldn't be too hard to find someone. (If all else fails, download Malwarebytes antimalware

and do a complete scan with it, it's a pretty good scanner

Only reason i replied was to say, please tell her to change all of her passwords (E-mail, Facebook online banking etc.. too many people use the same one for everything...) Especially as she's already used her credit card...

Don't have any recommendations as I do all stuff like this myself and for mates and family. All I can say it be prepared to pay a crazy amount of money.

I know if it comes to it, I can just go to her place and get it done myself.

But if someone knew somewhere, it'd save a bit of pain and give her a bit more peace of mind I'm sure.

Anyone?
