Antivirus security is essential to protect your computer from unwanted viruses affecting your PC parts adversely. In fact one should employ all efforts to keep your computer 100% safe.

It is common that your computer get attacked from viruses and other malware so it is mandatory on our part to employ anti virus security to get protected from undesired malware. An individual do several things with his personal computer like receives emails, instant messaging downloads files and many more.

So working on internet is also similar and invites Trojans and other malware. When a computer is connected to a network then it begins to listen for communications from outside.

Computer Viruses - The Basics

Computer Viruses - The Basics
By Robert Hanania, Mon Jan 2nd

In its simplest terms a virus is a disruptive computer codeperiod! A computer virus almost always repeats itself andspreads by attaching itself to other files. Viruses can be madeto host a number of harmful things on any computer fromdisrupting files to crashing networks. It can even be layingdormant, without you knowing it's there and then attack whenleast expect it, like right in the middle of downloading a largefile or typing a long report.

It can even be made to open at a certain date, sitting like atimebomb until it's time arrives. As you can see it can beannoying at the very least. I do not want go into all thedifferent types of viruses here because there are so many andmore are being made everyday in some dank basement by the DarkLord. However, since so many viruses came from unknowinglyopening e-mails I would like to mention some basics here:

Never open e-mail attachments unless you know for sure who it'sfrom and that it's safe. Some mail programs will even ask if youtrust the attachment and if you're sure this you want to do.Your computer software can also scan attachments for viruses.The danger is that when the attachment is opened the virus canattach itself to your hard drive and damage files. Not onlythat, it can search your saved e-mail addresses and send itselfout to your friends, business partners and whoever is on thelist, masking the message to look like a legitimate one fromyou. It will probably have an attachment too and when openedwill infect other computers.

Many people like to download music, video, games or otherprograms from different sites. If it is a site you dealt withbefore and trust it may be safe ok, but if you're not sure youcan always run a virus scan on the download before installation.(You will need to check the anti-virus program that came withyour system on procedures). This security measure is necessarybecause some downloads may contain virtues, spyware or adware -these last two can collect personal information, note yourbrowsing habits and spam your e-mail with unwanted ads. Somesoftware sites will offer a readme file that shows technicalinformation on the download (if you like tech talk) as well ascontact info. The better sites that offer downloads will testand scan all there software programs before going online withit. As a last resort you can do an internet search for reviewson that particular company to see if others got burned.

This may sound scary to some but the fact is in this worldanyone who owns a computer will have to look over thereshoulders for hidden attacks when working with online. That saidthere are some things should do to prevent viruses fromattacking your computer:

* Download the latest virus definition lists ( files that tellyour computer what to scan for) that's used for your anti-virusprogram.

* Check to see if your internet service provider has tools tostop viruses before they can reach your mailbox.

* Always back-up your computer on CD-R disks or other media incase you loose some or all your data.

* You can scan software for viruses before installing it. (Seesystem manual for procedure)

* Set your security settings at the highest level.

* Check your web browser and e-mail settings.

Doing these things at least every week will help keep yourcomputer up to date on Virus protection and running safely.

Anti virus software
By: Bureau24

Though viruses are mushrooming at a faster rate than vaccines still there are very good and reasonable anti-virus software to assist its users to keep their computer system virus free. At present, the following are the most popular anti virus software:
Norton anti virus
Dr.soloman
PC clean

The function of anti-virus software is to perform one or more of the following functions:

Prevention :
Anti-virus programs may be preventive or restorative. Preventive techniques include stopping attempts at direct access such as formatting and deleting, or even write protecting the hard disk while testing familiar software. The restorative process is achieved by maintaining a copy of CMOS information, boot sector information, the file allocation table, etc., in a safe area like a floppy.

Detection :
The detectors warm the user of the presence of a virus after it is loaded into the machine or disk. These programs maintain a file with a list of checksum values of the executable files. The identifiers rely on the fact that when the replicates, it makes a copy of itself.

Vaccination :
The vaccinators inject some code into the executable files. When the vaccinated file is run, the injected code performs an integrity check on the program being executed and warns if any changes have been made.

Inoculation :
The inoculators insert the virus signature into infected areas or files at appropriate location. When the virus performs their self detection, they find their signature and believe that the memory/disk/file is already infected and so do not infect.

Damage control :
The better equipped anti-viral programs are also capable of controlling damages caused due to virus attack.

Little-known Anti-virus Software Catches Viruses That Big Software Companies Miss.

2008-01-14T00:46:00.000-08:00

Little-known Anti-virus Software Catches Viruses That Big Software Companies Miss.
With computer virus infections at an all-time high, thousands of computer resellers, IT consultants, and computer users are abandoning their expensive, big-brand anti-virus software for the less expensive AVG anti-virus software developed by Grisoft and distributed by Walling Data Systems(http://www.avg-antivirus.net). Using a multi-level virus scan approach that is far more comprehensive than most anti-virus software, Grisoft's AVG product is able to shield users from viruses, Trojans and worms that most other anti-virus programs miss."When we replace a well-known anti-virus product with the AVG product on any computer or network, we almost always find threats that the competing software product was not detecting," says Luke Walling, President of Walling Data Systems and Authorized US distributor of the product. "Unfortunately, not many people know about AVG simply because the company reinvests all of its money into developing a better product instead of dumping the money into expensive marketing," he continued. "The up side is that the product is a lot less expensive to the end user because they aren't paying for the fancy box or advertising."However, the word is getting out. In the last 6 months, the number of computer resellers who are abandoning their current anti-virus software for the AVG product has increased by a very high percentage, and over 10 million licenses are in use by home users and businesses around the world."I lost trust in the other anti-virus software I was using because it was not filtering viruses properly," says Mike Henson, President of A+ Computer Repair a reseller in Chesapeake, VA.

"With AVG, you get bullet-proof virus protection without the problems or the high cost; it's really a no-brainer," he added.Another attractive feature of the product is that, once installed, it will not drain your computer system's resources. This makes AVG suitable for use with a wider variety of computers that would otherwise not be able to handle the system load of some of the more popular anti-virus software."Once you install the Grisoft AVG product, it works the way it's supposed to and we don't have to go back and deal with problems or baby sit the product to make sure it is still working," says Jay Tipton, President, Technology Specialists a reseller based in Fort Wayne, IN. "Also, the support provided after the sale is top-notch," he continued, "I like the fact that we can reach a real, live, English-speaking person at Walling Data Systems who actually knows how the product works and will not B.S. you into thinking that it is your fault when something goes wrong."Grisoft was founded in 1991 in the Czech Republic by software developer Jan Gritzbach. Grisoft, Incorporated, the U.S.

branch, was founded 1998 in Delaware and now has sales and support operations in New Jersey. In August of 2004, Walling Data Systems launched the first full-service web site offering instant product delivery on all Grisoft AVG products, live help, remote support, and a US-based toll free support hotline to all customers.

Your Anti-virus Is Not The Answer To Your Total Internet Security.

2008-01-14T00:44:00.001-08:00

Your Anti-virus Is Not The Answer To Your Total Internet Security.
MicroWorld focuses on new generation e-security threats with its new product eScan Web and Mail Filter for WindowsDo you think your anti-virus software is all that you require for protecting your system from cyber criminals? Is it all that you need to prevent your machine from becoming a spam producing mill? Is it all that protects your children from obscene material, prevents your employees from degrading their performance by using Internet unproductively, protecting your personal/private documents from any modifications or unauthorized access, killing your precious bandwidth through pop up Ads and securing you against Spywares? The answer to these questions is a big NO. The anti-virus software simply protects your system against viruses, worms and trojans but the cyber criminals have become so intelligent today that they know how to circumvent through the security policies and attack the systems with other types of tools. If you have an anti-virus software in place and think that you are secured from all potential Internet threats, you need to rethink.....as your children may fall into pornographic loop, your bank details may be stolen and the productivity of your organization may go down the drain. So, what is the solution???The recently launched product from MicroWorld, eScan Web and Mail Filter for Windows, protects your system on a real time basis against threats like:Unsecured content, Spam, Pornography,Unproductive use of Internet, Spyware, Pop Up Advertisements etc.The product has been developed to run efficiently with any antivirus software you might already have on your system. "This product has been developed keeping into consideration the security requirement of our users who already have an anti-virus in place but are vulnerable to other new potential e-threats", said Mr.

Govind Rammurthy, CEO and MD, MicroWorld. "People already having an anti-virus installed on their systems if want to secure themselves from other potential e-threats also usually do not find software which can gel with their existing anti-virus and provide them a good security. Considering this requirement of our users we have launched this new product in the market which we expect would get phenomenal response", he futher says.The more details about the new product from MicroWorld can be obtained by writing to sales@mwti.net or support@mwti.net..

Anti-virus Vendor

2008-01-14T00:39:00.000-08:00

Anti-virus Vendor “wows” Customers With Free Installation And Support Services
In a world where most technology vendors are cutting back on free support and setting up their help desk support overseas to save money, Grisoft AVG Anti-Virus distributor Walling Data Systems is breaking the mold by not only keeping their support staff in-house in the United States, but also adding free remote setup of AVG's Centralized Administration tool (AVG Admin) as well as a free comprehensive deployment analysis for all of their customers purchasing the AVG Anti-Virus Network Edition software product from http://www.avg-antivirus.net"Lack of service after the sale is the number one complaint customers have about technology companies in general," says Luke Walling, President of Walling Data Systems, "they (technology companies) work very hard to get your money; but after you buy, you are typically on your own."Although Walling Data was already providing free remote installation and support for their Corporate, Educational, and Government AVG Anti-Virus customers when they had a need for it, it was decided to make it official starting December 14th, 2004 after staff members talked with hundreds of customers and prospective customers about the concept."I don't think offering free support and good service after the sale is an amazing concept, but it surprises me how many companies don't get it right," says Luke, "either they assign you to a low level tech support person that is reading from a script, or they charge you for the support. This is very frustrating to a customer who just bought a product expecting it to work, only to find out that they have to hand over even more money to make that a reality."To date, Walling Data has done over 150 free Network Edition management tool installations and customers just love it!"Most companies are great at following up with you when they want to make the sale, but after you buy, you never hear from them again. That wasn't the case with AVG Distributor,
Walling Data Systems, Not only were they easy to reach and very responsive, they helped us complete the entire install and followed up to make sure it was running properly. I would definitely recommend AVG Anti-Virus to any other IT Manager looking for virus protection at a fraction of the cost of many competing solutions, with better service to match."
