Well now that the holidays are finally over and work being as back logged as it was I've found that due to the Wiki-leaks issue my work load has doubled in size. And this seems all the more reason to bring up internet security. There are a lot of viruses out there. And since these kids with too much knowledge but not enough sense started this whole "we like this dude who talks to much and puts our country in danger" tantrum, turning all the computers in the open into zombies I've been enforcing new anti-virus laws all by my lonesome.
So lets go over the basics,
If you don't know who sent you the email... don't open it Delete it!!!
If the email is a forwarded from a friend, don't read it delete it... its probably not all that funny anyway.
Don't click on adds
Stick to websites you know
Run anti-virus software once a week
Password protect everything and never save the password on the computer keep it on paper hidden.
Never tell anyone your password, ever!
Get a fire wall.
Keep your pop up blocker on!
Use one of my previously mentioned internet browsers with the security add-ons!
Back everything up once a month, use once again a previously mentioned software for that.
And if your at home using a wifi router make sure you have changed the name the password security option and once your connected, hide the broadcast.
All of these items can be seen in detail from previous posts.
Welcome to the New Year which means New issues.... but just remember I'm here for you!!!!!
