REALLY! The health of your computer, your friend's computer, your neighbor's computer, the government computers, my computer are all at stake. Heck, economies world wide depend on the information I am about to repeat to you and you HAVE to forward it every computer user you know! REALLY!

I cleaned up a laptop today that belonged to a sophomore in college. She readily admitted that she knew very little about her computer and knew nothing about Internet security. After cleaning off some horrific spyware and a couple of viruses, I explained to her how to maintain the standard products I add to all my customer's computer:

  • AVG Antivirus
  • Windows Defender, Ewido, SpyBot Search & Destroy, and AdAware (anti-spyware programs)
  • Mozilla Firefox (an alternative browser to help prevent the problems)

We have talked and written volumes on this subject, so I'm listing for you links to the articles and tips we have written so you can brush up and educate and inform all the computer users you know.

  • Setting up a new computer (one of our most important articles ever)
  • Spyware articles
  • Virus Articles

 

It is an undisputed fact that computer users who visit HelpMeRick.com on a daily basis, follow our advice on the site and on the radio show have safer, cleaner computers than anyone else on the planet ...REALLY!

If this helped, consider buying me a beer or an Americano!

Research for purchases

I go to a price comparison site such as PriceGrabber.com, look to see what is available. Then I go to a site such as Newegg.com and look at user reviews. The combination gets me the best prices and quality merchandise.

Aren't WinDef, Spybot and

Submitted by Smart Computer User on September 29, 2006 - 9:34pm.

Aren't WinDef, Spybot and AdAware "on-command" Spywares? What would you use for a "continuously running Spyware. I am confused...Can you run 2 constantly running Spywares but NOT 2 continuously running Virus protections?

Sorry about this...
