Do I Need This?

Absolutely!

Antivirus firewall software is a must. It may be the most important software you'll ever install on your Microsoft Windows computer.

As a computer user you've probably come across terms like viruses, spam, Trojan horses, worms, etc. Some of you may know what these refer to; others of you may have heard of them but have no idea what they mean. In a word they mean: DANGER!

We can't emphasis this too strongly. Anytime you go online to shop or to access your email or just to surf the web you and your pc are vulnerable to attack by dangerous elements.

These threats come in many forms and sometimes they can come from sites you've been to many times and "trust."

The virus and malware writers are now taking it upon themselves to take over reputable sites and install viruses, worms, trojans, and the like on these otherwise reputable sites most often completely without the site's owners ever knowing it has happened.

In essence, these and other malware attacks are attempts by disreputable individuals to disrupt the proper operation of your computer; in some cases rendering it useless. Others can cause you financial ruin.

Think, for instance, that if all the important information contained on your pc was suddenly wiped out. All those priceless family pictures-gone forever. How about the novel you've been writing and didn't make a copy of? Whatever you hold nearest and dearest has disappeared and you can't begin to replace it.

Then there is the danger of identity theft. If someone can get your social security number, banking, or other financial information it can mean months, if not years, of suffering.

How to Protect Your PC: Internet Security Software

The three biggest things you can do to secure your PC are:
  1. Keep your operating system and your applications well-patched.
  2. Don't run as Administrator or with an account that has Administrator privileges.
  3. Install the best antivirus firewall software you can.
By taking these steps, many of these threats can be minimized significantly.
