Virus tips and cleanup
As technology becomes faster, easier to access and more
widely used and accepted, the danger of viruses created by cyber-terrorists
becomes greater. You can safely use your business and home computer
if you become anti-virus alert.
We recommend to all our clients that they take the time to become
educated about viruses and the harm they can do to your computer
and network. Although sometimes the computers of even the most
cautious users can become infected, there are some general guidelines
to avoid viruses:
- Never open an email if you do not recognize the address
of the sender
- Never open an email attachment unless you are sure about
its contents even if you know the sender. Viruses are sometimes
disguised as funny pictures or other attachments that people
may unwittingly forward to their friends.
- Never download anything to your computer if you are unsure
about the security of the download-site.
- Unless you are expecting an e-greeting or e-card, do not
open these emails.
- Update your anti-virus software often.
