Would you have sex with multiple strangers all over the world without first properly protecting yourself by wearing a condom or using birth control? The majority of people would answer no to this question, so think of the Internet as sex for your computer. An unprotected computer having sex with possibly hundreds of strange partners everyday can potentially come in contact with a harmful infection making your PC sick or worse even, it could come in contact with a fatal virus causing PC – death.

Of course, the surefire way to protect your PC from becoming ill with computer viruses or worms, is to practice absence from the Internet, but if that option is too extreme for you to do, then take preventive measures to protect your computer software and hardware by using the proper computer condom protection. If you should choose to shrug off this advice, then it is a good idea to keep the phone number to your local PC doctor on standby and enough money to pay the doctor bills.

Before installing any new software, make sure that you use the add/remove programs option and remove any other anti-virus, anti-spyware, anti-malware, additional firewalls that are not in use. Doing this will help eliminate any potential program conflicts that can slow your computer down to a crawl giving the appearance that the PC is infected with a virus.

If you are using MS Windows and have, but are not using the pre-installed copy of Norton Antivirus, then it is highly recommended that you remove this program off of your computer hard-drive before installing any other antivirus software programs. Norton Antivirus can cause your computer to have the sniffles without ever having a full-blown cold. When your computer isn’t feeling good it becomes slow and sluggish. Removing this program will almost instantly make your PC run faster and feel better than ever before.

ZoneAlarm Firewall

One of the first lines of defense to keep your computer running healthy and protected is installing an up to date firewall. Computers without this type of protection is much more prone to coming in contact with harmful viruses and worms, but most of all, the computer could become compromised by hackers wanting to steal the information that is stored on the computer’s hard-drive. Installing and using an up to date firewall will assist in stopping or at the very least, making it much harder for a hacker to gain access to your computer system.

Avast!

This antivirus software is in my personal opinion, one of the best free computer condoms available on the market today. It comes complete with all the tools needed to thoroughly exam, identify and heal most of the newest worms and viruses that are being spread on the Internet daily. Avast! A proactive software company that automatically updates users’ free home edition antivirus software at least once per day. Users still must manually activate the antivirus scan when using the free home edition or wanting something easier, then the Avast! Pro edition can be purchased and setup to automatically scan the PC at whatever times that you want the program to examine the system.

WOT 

One of the most important things to remember about the websites that you want to visit is that, they are not all created with your safety in mind. Some websites are plagued with all kinds of hidden dangers designed to wreak havoc in your computer system, so it becomes an extremely important issue to think about and tackle before visiting the websites that you want. The Web of Trust (WOT) is a free Firefox security add-on for your browser that is designed with your safety in mind. Using this line of protection before visiting the websites that you desire, will help protect your computer from online scams, identity theft, spyware, spam, viruses and more. So, have the peace of mind when exploring the worldwide web when using WOT as one of your first lines of defense.

Ccleaner 

The best defense is to have in place a good and solid offense. Ccleaner does help with this by providing a freeware system optimization, privacy and cleaning tool that will free up hard disk space and have your Windows OS running faster. Using this type of protection will allow you to clean the traces of your Internet activities and online history as it goes to work cleaning the computer registry that may have become corrupted after browsing websites that have been visited during the day. Use this free program and your computer will love you for doing it.

MailWasher 

Browsing the Internet isn’t the only way that potentially fatal viruses and harmful worms can enter the safety zone of your computer’s hard-drive, but many times these dangerous bugs will use the front door, so to open a backdoor that a hacker can than use for whatever they are wanting to do. The front door is the email that you receive everyday and the backdoor is the unsecured ports that are built into the computer’s hardware and software. To protect your computer from potentially harmful email or spam, just install and use a program such as MailWasher to intercept the dangerous kind of email sent before it even gets the chance to enter into the computer’s hard-drive. Block any sender that has been flagged as harmful and safely delete any email that is potentially dangerous to receive and do all of this for free.

Mailinator 

Talking about unwanted and potentially dangerous email or spam, we should not forget how most spam we receive is sent to us. For spammers to send us email they first must have obtained our email address from some source, and then usually they send out bulk junk email to whomsoever is on their list. To combat this can be a daunting daily task of scanning email, blocking unwanted senders or even paying an expert to remove your email address from mailing lists that some spammers employ to complete their master plan. Spammers and hackers are on a mission to get want they want at others expense and safety, so these people are actually the rapists of the Internet. To stop a potential rapist from attacking your computer take the proper precautions to keep them from knowing where your computer resides by using a temporary email address anytime when signing up for something that you want to join or have sent to your computer via email.

This is not foolproof, but if you use this program along with the other things that we have already discussed, then in the long-run your computer will be better protected against the majority of sneaky dangers from harmful worms, unwanted spam (potential virus carriers) and fatal viruses that are spreading like wildfire on the Internet daily. So, if you would not have unprotected sex with multiple strange partners that you should meet, then why should your computer be subject to unprotected sex on the Internet especially since it will come into contact with potentially hundreds of strange bedfellows in a single day?
