When we were hit last fall with a bad virus attack we had a few downloads added to make things a little easier. There is a lot of people daily spying in on you and your activities while surfing the net. It is an awful thing for us to deal with day in and out.
I have a few downloads that should help if people our interested. These are all avalible from download.com.
We have a folder on our desk top and security is done at least twice a week. They don't take long and is worth it when it comes to protecting your privacy and in some cases your business.
I am listing the name for the three different ones we are currently using.
When at download.com you want to choose software
in the search you will type in "Ad-Aware SE Personal Edition"
when that page appears you can click download and follow the on screen intructions
the next one which will help with trackers and cookies etc will be "spybot search and destory"
This one is especially good for those nasty dialers that attack on those who have dial up which it seems to hit more
The same as before to download just follow the on screen intructions
and finally "spyblaster"
Once you have all these downloaded I suggest using them twice a week when you have a few minutes as well as updating them when it says there are live updates ready.
I hope this helps some if you have any questions or require any help please pm and I will try to guide you through or answer any questions you might have.
I am still finding and getting information for pop up blockers which seem to be coming all to famous with lots of viruses.
As well as these downloads you can find many more of them at download.com for free for many virus protection, updates, etc.
Keep it safe
