Viruses infections can be cured, Spyware Adware can cripple your life.
Many years ago with the advent of microcomputers, we a had no idea of the fact tiny little processes called VIRUSES working in the back ground of our PC operating systems and in most cases controlling the effects of the operating system, would dominate the way programming code is written and designed for ever. With this threat to your personal files and hard work being destroyed, a solution was needed to combat and defend against virus infections spreading to every PC in every Corner of the globe. , which would cause networks of all shapes and sizes to come to a grinding halt. Your obvious answer here would be Antivirus software.
Antivirus software is the perfect solution with only one problem; it needs to be updated quite regularly, with the ever changing an adapting of virus strains. Many people believe that you buy a PC which is has pre-installed anti virus software on it, go on the NET and not have to worry about a thing ,that’s where your wrong and that’s when your PC is going to suffer.
Your anti-virus software is working at its best when it has its drive engine and index definitions are up to date. Think about it, what good is your anti virus software to you when it is scanning and monitoring viruses that where designed six months ago? Your software can only compare to what is in its database and if that is out of date, every virus that has being developed prior to its last update (lets stay on six months)will be simply ignored and not picked up.
I have a Network+ and A+ Certification and I have seen all sorts of problems arising from not updating your software.
However, there is a new killer in town, which acts differently than your viruses its called SPYWARE and ADWARE.
You must have seen these types of symptoms before, well at lest one
1 PC running slower than usual.
2 Pop-ups.
3 Overall degraded performance.
4 Rerouting your internet browser to un desired web sits.
5 Advertising slogans and software that has being installed your pc without your permission.
These are all signs of SPYWARE and Adware. This type of software gets into your system and takes up your computers resources ,not only does it effect the overall performance ,it can send back very personal detailed information about your history on the NET and bank details,do I need to say anymore.
Having the proper software to counteract this type of treat is equally important and people fail to believe this.
Do yourself and PC a favour and get your hands on these products below, I use these all the time and they work.
