Anti Virus

We offer comprehensive anti-malware solutions for the small business and home office.

Computer viruses, trojan horses and worms can attach themselves to programs and reproduce themselves by making copies which are intended to spread to other computers and can damage not only your programs but also hardware and data stored on your computer. They are most commonly spread by visiting unfamiliar websites that are not widely trusted, downloading software from untrusted sources and in email attachments. The symptoms can vary widely but if your system begins to behave badly or in a clearly different manner you should suspect a virus and take steps to eradicate it.

Always use a firewall such as the one that comes with Windows XP and on most routers and install a reputable and proven anti-virus program and update it at least once a week. You should also scan all new software whether on a disk or downloaded and do not open email attachments unless you are completely confident in the sender and their security practices. It is advisable to schedule a complete system scan for viruses and spyware every week. If you back up your data regularly remember to scan the back up media such as USB flash and external hard drives.

Spyware

Spyware protection is essential. It can be as harmful to your PC security as a virus. Malicious software like spyware can change your computer settings and provide the perpetrators with personal information. This software can also launch advertising campaigns on your personal computer without your explicit agreement and can come attached to downloaded software. You should scan for spyware regularly.
