Common Problems
Spyware, Trojan Horses, Malware, Adware and Pop-ups are the most common complaints PC users have these days. It use to be the occasional virus. This year (2008) it will be rogue anti-spyware products (evil applications masquerading as helpful ones) and Root kit viri, which are even harder to detect. If you suspect problems, please take a look at the free solutions on the Download Programs page or give us a call.
There are hardware and software issues to consider when it comes to protecting you and your PC.
If you connect to the internet with DSL or Cable, a (hardware) router ($50 to $200) will protect your computer(s) - and some manufacturers are starting to implement Parental Controls (built into their routers) for a fee (about $40 per year). A wireless router can also allow your other PCs, notebook, printer and Xbox to share the same internet connection. Dialup users do not have these options. Feel free to call us for recommendations on how to protect your Online connection and your family.
Some internet service providers offer antivirus and other protection while you are their customer. If you use this alone, you may be minimally protected. Additional software may be needed to keep your PC clean and running at its best.
