Modern wireless networking products are inexpensive, simple to set up and very convenient. They are also full of holes... security holes, that is. Apart from the threats of computer theft by unscrupulous elements, the Internet can hold a host of dangers for the unwary computer user. Without proper precautions, your data is at risk every minute your system is connected to the Web. No matter where you really live, when you connect your computer to the Internet, you're in the big city and face the threat of serious virus outbreaks, Trojans, Spyware and sloppy network security affecting you. So you outfit your PC with the virtual locks like stop pop ups utility, spyware blaster, computer virus protection tools and/or computer monitoring software and assume that it is impenetrable.
Well, you may be wrong. The irony is that though these technologies may largely thwart the security threats, just having locks such as Spyware blaster, stop pop ups tools, computer virus protection solutions or computer monitoring software isn't enough. The culprit is nearly always Spyware, Trojan horses, or other malware that props a PC's doors wide open and parties on the hard drive. So it's most important to install a software that covers computer virus protection solutions, firewall and Spyware blaster. On the other hand, if you're bogged down with annoying advertisements invading your privacy while browsing the Internet or the slowing down of your PC's performance, it is imperative that you install a tool that helps stop pop ups too. Likewise, if you harbor any doubt about your PC being misused by someone while you're away, better act fast and upload a computer monitoring software that will record all the activities done in your absence and help you to initiate necessary actions. Again, if you travel frequently with a notebook, you know how valuable that piece of equipment can be - not just because of the significant amount of money spent to purchase it, but even more so due to the important and sensitive or confidential information it contains. So, if you want to safeguard yourself against computer theft, install reliable software that would help you to trace and recover your machine if stolen or lost.
Now, here are some healthy habits for keeping your system running right:
1. Regularly update your operating system, web browser, and other key software, using the manufacturers' update features or web downloads
2. Do not open an email attachment, even from someone you know well, unless you know what it contains
3. Configure your computer to show file name extensions so you are certain what type of file you are working with
4. Configure your computer to not share files over your Internet connection
5. Create a floppy boot disk as part of an emergency recovery plan
6. Do not respond to spam email - you are only confirming to the spammer that they have a valid address
7. Configure your email software to not use automatic preview in your default Inbox - this may execute an undesired script or applet.
8. Make regular backups of important data - a CD burner is great for this.
9. Keep a list of the programs installed on each computer with the installation disks in a known location
10. Make sure all passwords are strong with: at least eight characters of mixed case, include at least one numeral (not at either end), include at least one special character, and do not include common words; and change them at least every six months.
Hope these tips will help you to regain your positive browsing habits, privacy and peace of mind!
