Security is Paramount

Submitted by Rick on April 21, 2006 - 4:29pm.
  • Riding Shotgun with Rick

I'm posting from the road today as I sit waiting for my last customer. An earlier customer made a neat comment/observation. She said, "Geesh, I didn't realize there was so much to setting up the security on a computer."

She had an expired version of Norton that we uninstalled. Then I loaded AVG Antivirus, Zone Alarm Firewall, and Windows Defender. Security setup seems time consuming and tedious during setup, but once installed properly it can work autonomously. The little extra time spent up front pays dividends down the road with decreased support calls and repair costs.

One other theme that cropped up this week was tables. Not the variety that you sit and eat at, but rather the word processing variety. Tables are powerful tools at your disposal for making lists of information, forms, calendars and much more. If you have never tried using forms in your word processor, give it a try. Tables are always one of my more popular topics at classes I give.
