 SpeedMaxPC provides solutions for common
computer issues. By resolving problems such as
malware, SpeedMaxPC helps customers enjoy
their computers to the full.

While many programs help resolve acquired
malware like viruses and worms, it’s often easier
to avoid getting those problems in the first
place. By taking certain precautions, the
likelihood of your encountering malware
decreases.
 For example, avoid clicking on unknown
email attachments. These might contain
malware. Additionally, many websites
prompt you to install software. Rather than
automatically installing it, perform some
research on the program. Make sure it is a
trusted program that is downloaded from a
legitimate location. Also, be careful with
pop-ups that appear as you browse
websites. If they prompt you to download
something, be very careful. Perform
research before clicking to install.
 It is also a good idea to be careful even
when someone you know sends you a
media file. There are programs available
that allow one to scan files for malware.
This can be a good line of defense when
opening this type of file.
