Everybody uses computers. Often times, people view and store important documents and private information on their computers. Unfortunately, the biggest problem with using a computer is the potential for obtaining a computer virus. Computer viruses can attack your computer and get access to all your private and important information. Thus, you must take steps to protect your computer. Below are five ways to help keep your computer virus-free. If you have questions or need assistance with your computer, contact Nextora. We provide superior IT support in San Diego and can help you protect your computer and private information.

1. Install reliable anti-virus software – Having reliable anti-virus software on your computer is extremely important. It can protect you against viruses during all computing activities, such as basic web surfing, email reading, attachment opening, downloading, and more. Anti-virus software regularly scans files for unusual changes and it should constantly be running on your computer while your computer is in use. Commonly used anti-virus software includes McAfee VirusScan and Norton Anti-Virus. There are also some free or inexpensive options, such as AVG Anti-Virus.
2. Don’t download programs from the Internet HD transporter 3

   – Downloading from the internet is the number one way to infect your computer. This doesn’t mean all downloading is off limits. You just have to be very cautious about what you download and from where you download.  Internet newsgroups and questionable web sites are common unreliable sources. Avoid downloading files you can’t be sure are safe, for example various freeware, screensavers, games, and any other executable programs. When you do have to download from the Internet, be sure to scan each program with anti-virus software before running the downloaded program on your computer. You can easily keep track of your downloads and scan them by saving them all to one designated folder.

3. Scan all floppies before using them – Simply run a virus scan before launching any of the programs on the disk you want to use. This should prevent infection.
4. Don’t automatically open email attachments – This can’t be stressed enough. A common way for computer hackers to infect your computer is with a virus sent to you in an email.  Please note that if you get an email with an attachment from a friend, do not assume it’s harmless. Many viruses are spread by automatically sending themselves to the addresses found in a victim’s email address book. In other words, an infected email can purport to be from someone you know tempting you to open any attachments. Additionally, virus emails often include a message body that looks like a personal message from your friend. So, if you are unsure about an attachment, simply delete the email. This is particularly true if it’s from a source you do not recognize, but you shouldn’t be opening those emails anyways. Be sure your email settings do not allow for automatic downloading of attachments. Additionally, be sure your virus software settings are always set to automatically scan emails for viruses. Most email programs check for viruses and potentially dangerous images and attachments and will notify you of issues. Pay attention to these notifications.
5. Update your anti-virus software frequently

Unfortunately, even with proper protection and caution a computer virus can somehow still infect your computer. So, just in case a virus finds its way to your computer, be prepared with a back-up system. You can use software or an external hard drive to create a backup copy of your computer’s internal hard drive and all your pertinent information. This way, if your computer is attacked, you can revert to a clean, undamaged, virus-free version of your computer. Also, it is wise, particularly if you have a network of computers, you are a business owner with several computers and users, or you are just having trouble with your computer to contact Nextora’s IT support.
