Xiao Zhang, sorry to bother you again. My computer has recently run particularly slow, always crashes, and the software also malfunctions. The document I just finished this morning inexplicably cannot now be found. Please help me to check it.
B: 丽姐，你太客气了。你的电脑啊，就是杀毒软件没有及时更新，现在中病毒了。要升级杀毒软件，然后全面杀毒。以后记得把重要文件在公司云端做个备份。

Sister Li, you are quite welcome. The problem with your computer is that the antivirus software has not been updated, and your computer has been attacked by a virus. We need to upgrade the antivirus software and then scan and remove the virus comprehensively. Remember to back up your important documents in the company cloud in the future.
A: 好好好。看来以后我得注意多维护电脑了。
A: Hǎo hǎo hǎo. Kàn lái yǐ hòu wǒ děi zhù yì duō wéi hù diàn nǎo le.
