HOW TO PREVENT COMPUTER VIRUS ?

How can we prevent
computer viruses is the big
question that millions of
users make everyday. The
first rule in this eternal
battle for computer security
is to have an up-to-date
antivirus. Notice the word
up-to-date. That means that
your antivirus software
needs to be updated every
day. Viruses are always
appearing, so do not sub
estimate them. In less than
24 hours your antivirus
could be obsolete.
The next important rule is
still related to actualizations.
Although you may have your
antivirus updated, that
doesn't mean that there are
other weaknesses in your
system. As a matter of fact,
there isn't an unbreachable
computer. Even the most
expensive system can be
cracked by an expert.
So, it doesn't matter if you
have a guardian dog tied at
the front entrance of your
house if your windows are
open. That's why the rest of
your software needs to be
updated. The first piece of
software that needs to be
actualized is the operating
system.
Almost eighty percent of the
world uses Microsoft
software. Hence, it is the
favorite victim of black hat
hackers. Configure your
Windows configuration so it
can make automatic
actualizations that can
prevent computer viruses.
The same thing goes for
productivity software like
Microsoft Office or even
entertainment software like
computer games. All software
is under constant changes
once it is delivered into the
market. Consider the millions
of possible configurations
that a computer program
needs to affront once it is
introduced.
