Today I'll leave you with this reminder, again, please protect your pc, scan your pc for viruses, spyware, adware, malware, trojans and other threats / unwanted software.
How do I do this, you ask?
- Use a Firewall
- This helps keep out hackers and some viruses, if you have a router at home or at the office, most of them have a built in firewall, but you might have to enable it. If you have Windows XP Professional, Windows XP Home and Windows XP Media Center, you have to enable the firewall, or use a firewall software app of your choice.
- Secure your wireless connection
- All wireless connection by default don't have protection enabled, you have to enable it the first time you use it, if not you're vulnerable
- For Windows users, always download the latest update
- Install Antivirus Software
- Fight Spyware
- Get windows Defender from Microsoft, it is a free program that helps, protect your pc against security threats caused by spyware and other unwanted software
- This was also in my previous post, you can find the download link here.
- Backup your files regularly.
