How to provide anti-virus protection?

Protect your computer from viruses can be only to you. To prevent infecting your computer, or to minimize the damage if contamination does occur, can only be properly and timely use of anti-virus programs. The existence of anti-virus tools, if you use them correctly, does not guarantee against infection. To properly secure your computer, follow these rules:

• Check for viruses on all diskettes, CD-RW, ZIP-disks, flash-drives visited on another computer, all bought CD.
• Use anti-virus program known firms audited regularly (ideally - every day!) Update their base
• Do not upload a resident monitor of the anti-virus programs from your computer's memory
• Use only the programs and data from reliable sources. The most common viruses are infected with pirated copies of programs, especially games
• Do not open any files attached to e-mails coming from senders unknown to you, and do not go to sites advertised through spam list

As practice shows, buy a good antivirus program is usually not enough. Need a set of programs - firewall, antispyware, etc. In addition, the need to continuously update the operating system. Microsoft Corporation periodically publishes special security updates that can help protect your computer. These updates can prevent viral and other attacks on your computer, removing the potentially dangerous entry points. Make sure that Windows receives the data update, including Automatic Updates Windows. Necessary information, see Enabling and disabling automatic updates. Enjoy your protection!

How to remove a spyware off the computer for free?

What is Spyware? It is a specific type of malicious software programs that spy on your actions. In other words spyware is computer software that is installed surreptitiously on a personal computer to intercept or take partial control over the user's interaction with the computer, without the user's informed consent.

Spyware is relatively innocuous (eg, collect data on the web pages you visit), or very dangerous (for example, collects your passwords). In any case, it is very unpleasant. So let's talk about some ways to solve the problem.

As a sad example, I can bring a friend who thus lost his e-mail and a personal blog. Malefactors stole his login and password. I think what everyone is thinking!

How to remove a spyware off the computer for free? There are several well-known free and paid programs. To include a free Ad-Aware Free, Spybot Search & Destroy. Both programs are excellent and do its job even if you are using the free version.

Moreover, almost all the Security Suit's have the "antispyware" module. If you installed Zone Alarm, Kaspersky, Avg, Cyberdefender or program from any other well-known manufacturer, they will be excellent to deal with the problem.

I can definitely recommend one of the toll complex solutions, plus to this it is desirable to have a free specialized programs such as Ad-Aware Free and Spybot Search & Destroy.

Once you feel that you brought the spy, immediately download the latest updates and run your favorite antivirus program!
