The most common
mistake that Windows users make is believing that the Windows Automatic Updates will keep your
Operating Systems up-to-date. The only thing that the Automatic updates
will keep up-to-date are the security updates for the OS and in some
cases a Service Pack. From the day you purchased your computer the OS is
out of date and needs to be brought current with not only the security
updates but software updates to other important areas of the OS. To
explain this better, let's say that you purchased your computer when the
OS was first introduced, there will be plenty of "nuances" in your OS that
may cause programs and possibly the OS to perform not as expected. Read More...

Well, lets
get this out there... I consider Norton and McAfee anti-virus programs
scareware. They do exactly the same thing that the other scareware
programs do, they attempt to harass you into purchasing their product
and you can't uninstall them from your system without a special cleaner
tool. If your trial happens to expire these programs have been known to
slow your computer down and hijack your internet connect intermittently
not allowing you access to the internet hoping that you think that if
you renew your subscription the problem will be corrected. Read More...

If you are
afraid of viruses, Trojans and worms you very well should be, but that
fear is allowing the virus makers to get into your computer even faster
and you will unwittingly allow them to enter. This is how the scam
works; you visit a website click on a link or even sometimes will be
automatically redirected to another website where it will run a fake
virus scanning program. This fake program will give you a visual that it
is scanning your hard drive but it will not actually be doing that (no
scans can happen that fast, that is your first clue!). Read More...

Mozilla's Firefox
browser is so much more secure that Microsoft's Internet Explorer one
would be foolish to keep using IE if you want to keep your computers
secure. I say this because so many infection attacks stem from security
holes in IE which makes it the highest risk for infections in the first
place. To keep my computer better secured I use a combination of add-ons
within Firefox to basically lock it down from internet born infections.
I use the following Firefox add-ons to help keep me protected: Read More...

Every time I receive an
email that the sender used the To: or cc: field to list all of the
recipients, I start to get loads of SPAM within a few days. Each time
you use the To: and cc: areas with multiple email addresses you are
giving each person in this list the email address of everyone else you
are sending your email to. Why is this important? Read More... |
The first thing to know is
that if your computer has one
infestation that you know about, it probably has five or more that you
don’t
know about. There are many places to start when removing infections from
a computer.
Having said that; I will tell you the most likely places to start
depending on
what is happening with the computer in question. The first thing is to
make a
determination as to what is currently happening. We will go with the
choice of
the removing one of the toughest infections that I have seen. That
should make thing
interesting… Read More
