5 WAYS TO STOP HACKERS FROM HACKING YOUR SYSTEM: 1]. Install anti-virus software. You can download and install free Avira Anti Vir Personal Edition, www.free-av.com or Grisoft's AVG Antivirus Free Edition, http://free.avg.com 2].Download a firewall program. Firewalls help to block unsafe information from the Internet or a network that tries to pass through your computer. Hackers often use intrusion methods to break into your computer and firewalls help to prevent this. Free to download firewalls include a version of Sunbelt's Personal Firewall, www.sunbeltsoftware.com. The free and paid versions are the same but if you don't buy the product, some advanced features are automatically turned off after 30 days. Another firewall which is less easy to use but which protects well is Comodo Firewall, www.personalfirewall.comodo.com 3]. Download and install a free or low-priced anti-malware program to your computer.You can download the free anti-malware Malwarbytes, www.malwarbytes.com or the low-priced Symantec, www.symantec.com .An anti-malware helps protect your system from unauthorized access to resources such as the Windows Registry. 4].Avoid opening email attachments from unknown people, or even strange looking attachments from the people you know. Also, avoid clicking pop-up offers that appear when you are browsing the Internet. These could be scams containing viruses or Trojan horses. Trojan horses create secret pathways to your computer interface through which hackers can install malicious softwares that collect your personal information,such as passwords, user IDs, financial data and so on. 5]. Always turn off your computer when you are not using it because hackers can only gain access to a system that is turned on. |Get Other Non-stop Updates Like This By Clicking the "Like" Button On Our Digitalinfo Page: http://tinyurl.com/3qtz2zn (Full site) or http://tinyurl.com/3n999x2 (Mobile site)
