This is today’s log of the ‘activity logs’ on your Norton Anti-Virus system software. This is just a simple example. Don’t shrivel your eyes. You do not believe me. But it’s true. Lots of hackers, gremlins and cyber-mosquitoes, cyber-worms are trying to land inside your computer always; even every second of every minute.
Suppose you are driving on a highway blindfolded and backwards at speed of 100 miles per hour. What will happen? You know better than me! Within a few moments you will crash, no way. Like this when you are not using Norton Anti-Virus, McAfee and other protective software your PC can be crashed anytime. That’s why this software is so important to your computer as well as for its operating system.
Now, if your PC is not lucky enough to get the service of Norton or any other anti virus software (due to you block-headed people!), I would rather suggest you to shut down the PC at once and run, don’t walk, to wherever the CDs are sold. CD is recommended by me because if you again need to reload it (due to computer system upgrades, etc. etc.); this is much cheaper easier and than trying to download off the Symantec website on payment. Always remember that it is the computer insurance and the driving cost of keeping your computer online. Perhaps you may be going to be arrested for driving without insurance and putting everyone at the risk of a fatal virus or worm, who are in your address book, if you go without this important thing. Usually Norton updates daily for a year but I recommend for doing this every day manually.
You need other two items. These are firewall and spy ware zapper. Two common firewalls which you can buy are Zone Alarm and Norton. The alerts on these logs will make you amazed. You should turn off the log alerts, otherwise every few seconds the marked window will pop up and annoy you featuring the heck out of. You will be comforted to know that it is working without showing anything that, its working.
Spy ware zappers come with the Norton Security CD, although you can buy it. But Ad-Aware is one of the best, and it is highly recommended by Microsoft. Its advantage is you can download this from Lava soft for free. spam email including excruciating elongated text forwarded jokes and e-cards, business opportunity of which I do not read and they are a total nuisance; Spy ware has a evil since of launching stuff inside your computer that causes people to see what you’re doing, and sometimes someone can infiltrate in your files. Lava soft zaps much of the spy ware.
Anti-virus software should be the number one at your priority list. One of these three should be your first choice. Firewall would be your second priority, and Ad Aware the third –. With the affect of these three things, you can save yourself from a big scary world of cyberspace easily and can go with your business free.
