Can I protect my computer from being infected by viruses?
Nothing can bring down a system faster than a computer virus! Purchase and install a good anti-virus program and confirm that you are running it at all times. In addition, make sure you keep the anti-virus program up to date – there are always new viruses coming out and new ways to detect and remove them. Refer to our links page to help direct you to recommended virus software and update information. As authorized resellers for both avast! and AVG antivirus products we can quickly provide you with a timely quote for either new or existing installations.
In addition to learning how to use your anti-virus program correctly, you should also pay careful attention to where you choose to download files and media from when connected to the Internet. Also, never open a file you have received off the Internet until you have scanned it for virus contamination and never accept a file through your email program from someone you don’t know. It is also good practice to never leave any removable media, such as a floppy disk, USB thumb or key drive, in the computer unless it has been scanned, and you should always scan removable media that has been used in another computer before using it in your computer.
