Online Safety - Threats & Preventions
Redeem antivirus discount
Bitdefender promotional codes
Regardless of weather you have protection or not, the fact that you will get a virus stays the same.
It's just one of those definite situations that can not be avoided, like death and taxes. There are
several different ways to determine if your machine is infected, and I'll walk you through several of
them. In a different article, I'll walk you through on how to get rid of them, but for now, I'll keep this
as simple as possible.
I should start by saying that not every system oddity is due to a virus, worm, or bot. Is your system
slowing down? Is your hard drive filling up rapidly? Are programs crashing without warning? These
symptoms are more likely caused by Windows, or badly written legitimate programs, rather than
mal-ware. After all, people who write mal-ware want to hide their program's presence. People who
write commercial software put icons all over your desktop. Who's going to work harder to go
unnoticed?
Another good online virus scan. HouseCall has been around for a long time and a lot of people like it.
I believe it is also very good, but I like Bitdefender a bit more.
When the viruses is created it is usually intended to reach as many computers as possible. Therefore
it is only logical that the first targets to overcome are the big named brands. If the virus get get past
this antivirus software undetected then it stands a very good chance of infecting thousands of
machines. Now this is where the problem lies. Norton, McAfee and other big names are always the
first target. There is nothing they can do about this other than to be as prepared as possible.
Android Antivirus - can even run on cheap Android phones since it is compatible with Android 1.6
and up, has been download 1 to 5 million times and scored 4.4 from about 9,400 downloads. It is no
longer being updated on the Google Play Store but is one of the few antivirus suites that still work
for older Android phones.
