Business Tools For Your Site!
So you have your own
PC and Internet connection and maybe your own web site too.
Whether you have a dial up Internet account or high speed
broadband connection, everyone should ensure that they have all
the necessary software installed on their PC.
This is essential
in order to protect your
hardware and all files from the onslaught of malicious codes,
trojans, worms, viruses, adware and spyware programs at bay on
the Internet.
I use the following
products to safeguard my PC and files 24/7 all year round.
Firstly I have every single plug connection for all PC equipment
and peripherals plugged into a Surge protected socket extension
cable.
Surge protection product help protect sensitive
electronic devices from overheating which can lead to electrical
fire hazards. I have two six outlet surge protection plug which
you can buy from your local electrical store from $15 for a
standard 6 or 7 way outlet.
Secondly, you will
need a good anti-virus program to keep your PC full protection
against all malicious code and Internet borne viruses.
I highly
recommend McAfee Anti-virus
because their software is easy
to use and has served many happy customers. McAfee Anti-virus
is renowned thorough security updates and also offers a great anti-hacker Personal Firewall Plus.
Both products are suitable for the home user and small to
corporate businesses. I would check out their site for news
regarding the latest threats.
Thirdly, my favorite
utility for sorting my incoming emails from Spam, viruses and
plain old junk has to be MailWasher Pro
Go to the site for more information regarding the
full features of MailWasher Pro
It works by allowing you to view your email from the
server enabling you to check valid messages BEFORE downloading
to your email program. You get so many more features with the
registered version and it is so cheap to purchase. I no longer
cross my fingers and hold my head up to the clouds when I open
my mail program ever again.
You can set blacklists, delete and
sort "real" messages to your mail program safe and
sound. You simply have to test run your free trial then
upgrade.
As for adware and
spyware which leaves snippets of code on your hard drive to
transmit your surfing habits to third party marketing companies
I use and recommend Spyware Nuker
This program is so easy to use and makes a
thorough scan of all uninvited adware and spyware whilst you
continue working at your PC. Keep your PC spyware and adware free. Especially if you have a
Broadband connection. Find out what is recording your very move
with this brilliant software. Retain your privacy.
