Protecting Your Computer from Viruses

Be cautious whenever opening an e-mail with an attachment even if it is from a friend or colleague. Some viruses can infiltrate e-mail accounts and send copies of themselves to all the contacts in an address book. So a virus could be sent directly from a friend without their knowledge. It is essential that your computer whether it be a desktop, laptop, netbook or tablet is secured with a firewall and protected with a security suite including an antivirus, e-mail scanner and browser protection.

It is also important to change your behaviour when browsing the internet or using your e-mail. Pre-scan all files before opening e-mail attachments or files downloaded from the internet. Be very wary of file-sharing sites such as Limewire as these can be a haven for viruses and be cautious when browsing the internet. Is that really a genuine website you are visiting?
