Keeping your PC Virus CleanBy James RobertsWe have been plagued with PC computer viruses for some years now it and it is obvious that they are not going away. What causes them and why they exist are certainly questions that many people ask. All of us would certainly like to see governmental regulation stepped up so as to eliminate this threat. If the meantime, all you can do to protect yourself and your PC is to be a smarter PC owner and institute the necessary operating standards.Once it became obvious that the threat of viruses was real, people began to heed advice and become much more informed users. That ushered in a period of widespread virus protection software installations and software companies had a field day. Then, talk began to circulate that many people still had major problems with viruses. The culprit it seems was the way people were functioning even with the advent of virus protection software. It is clear now that it takes a more security-centric view of the whole environment not just installing a package in order to be protected. It takes informed interaction with your package in order to be really secure. What this means is basically going beyond simply installing virus protection and becoming highly sensitive to day-to-day activities that can produce virus exposure. Here are the things you should begin to institute immediately to protect yourself from viruses. Work very closely with your security package and review its recommendations closely. As an example, review closely any request by your security software that announces that unknown software is requesting permission to launch. If you fail to do this actively you are basically defeating the purpose of the virus security package - and you will have wasted money and reduced your security. These packages can identify errant or unknown files and programs but it is up to you to participate in their removal - or lack of execution. Make sure that your virus protection software is from a reputable vendor. Reading and reviewing public awareness sources about this software will help. The best is to reference known software reviewers and magazines. Once you have a good one, make sure it is operating in real time - i.e. that it is open on our desktop at all times. Then make sure that it is current and that all its updates are being acquired from the vendor. Installing a firewall is the next thing you can do. The details of this can be found in our other articles on this subject. Firewalls are software barriers that greatly increase protection although they do affect convenience. Make sure that your online browser security is set to maximum. This will prevent adware than spyware from slipping past your security protection. Finally, keep a clean and updated Windows System Registry. You can get quality registry software that scans, deletes and replaces invalid codes and does other registry fix functions that will help you with your Registry Repair.
