Protect Yourself From PC Security Pitfalls - PC World(Spyware News)

Filed under: Spyware News — admin @ 6:16 pm

Here I’ll show you how to rid your PC of nefarious, spyware-infected programs, explain why you sometimes receive strange e-mail from your own address, and teach you how to stay safe on unsecured public wireless networks. Add the word remove to your search string, and avoid any link from the company that makes the program or any site that seems to have a positive opinion of it. You probably won’t be able to make heads or tails of it, but there are plenty of Internet forums where friendly people can help you decipher HiJackThis reports and recommend a course of action. I can’t tell you exactly how to reformat your hard drive and reinstall Windows, because that depends on whether you have a good backup of the operating system made before the infection, what kind of recovery capabilities came with your PC, and if you have a genuine Windows XP or Vista disc. However you do it, once Windows is working, you’ll need to install your security software and your applications, update everything, and then restore your data from the backup. More Spyware News
