AntiVirus 2010
I always freak out whenever my computer is messing up with me. The first thing in my mind is, oh my goodness, it must be virus again. Yes, I have been attacked by so many viruses in my computer and thankfully I survived fixing it but there was really a time when I don't have any control in the situation and all I can do is stare on my computer. It's like, hopefully the next time I turn this thing on, everything goes back to normal..Lol! But of course that's not the end result as always. Computers that are infected by virus is really a pain in the butt especially if you not a computer geek. Aside from it takes time to fix it, it is also expensive. If I am not mistaken, I had to bring my computer to an authorized technician 3 times this year already. Good thing it is still under warranty or else I'll end up broke from the expenses incurred in fixing it. The technician had always recommended an updated antivirus with antispyware. But I am hard headed sometimes. To me, as soon as my computer is back working, then I'll forget about everything they said. Sooner I have learned my lesson and did what they recommend to do. So far my computer is working fine and I get to do the things I need to do in a daily basis with my computer. Now, the antivirus that I have purchased is about to expired and I am currently looking for a new and updated antivirus for my computer. I have heard about Norton and I think it has a wide range of features that will protect my computer from any virus and spyware. And I also think that this is much better than the antivirus I am using right now. I will definitely not wait til my current antivirus will expire and will just go ahead and download Norton Antivirus 2010.

Do you know this?
Computer-virus infections don't cause your machine to crash anymore.
Nowadays, the criminals behind the infections usually want your computer operating in top form so you don't know something's wrong. That way, they can log your keystrokes and steal any passwords or credit-card numbers you enter at Web sites, or they can link your infected computer with others to send out spam.
Here are some signs your computer is infected, tapped to serve as part of "botnet" armies run by criminals:
• You experience new, prolonged slowdowns. This can be a sign that a malicious program is running in the background.
• You continually get pop-up ads that you can't make go away. This is a sure sign you have "adware," and possibly more, on your machine.
• You're being directed to sites you didn't intend to visit, or your search results are coming back funky. This is another sign that hackers have gotten to your machine.
So what do you do?
• Having anti-virus software here is hugely helpful. For one, it can identify known malicious programs and disable them. If the virus that has infected your machine isn't detected, many anti-virus vendors offer a service in which they can remotely take over your computer and delete the malware for a fee.
• Some anti-virus vendors also offer free, online virus-scanning services.
• You may have to reinstall your operating system if your computer is still experiencing problems. It's a good idea even if you believe you've cleaned up the mess because malware can still be hidden on your machine. You will need to back up your files before you do this.
How do I know what information has been taken?
• It's very hard to tell what's been taken. Not every infection steals your data. Some just serve unwanted ads. Others poison your search result or steer you to Web sites you don't want to see. Others log your every keystroke. The anti-virus vendors have extensive databases about what the known infections do and don't do. Comparing the results from your virus scans to those entries will give you a good idea about what criminals may have snatched up.
