How to Protect Your Computer from Hackers, Spyware and Viruses

 
 
Most of the viruses on the computer were hidden in files that had been downloaded off the Internet: songs, videos, and movies. Then, you surprised that the computer lasted for 2 years with that many viruses!
Some tips to protect your computer:
1. Install Anti-Virus Software
2. Update All Software
3. Install only Trusted Software -
4. Avoid P2P File Sharing Software
5. Delete Unknown Emails
6. Run Virus Scans Regularly
7. Be careful what you attach to your computer
8. Turn On or Install a Firewall
9. Secure Your Wireless Network
   Most wireless routers are set to no security when you install them. Be sure to log into the router and at least set the basic security that requires a password. There are stronger encryption options, but if you don’t understand those, then simply set a password on the router, otherwise anyone can connect to your home network and access everything.

10. Use a Complex Password for Login

 Create a password for all user accounts and make sure it’s complex. Complex means it should have numbers, upper case characters, lower case characters, and symbols. This makes it way more difficult for a hacker to get into your computer.
