Thanks for finding this, jlhaslip! Fortunately I am a careful internet user and only visit websites I know I can trust. Plus I have Anti-Virus and Anti-Spyware Programs that run Resident Shields, so I'm always informed if something I'm about to open, download or visit is malicious...
But I will make sure everyone I know is aware of this. |

Well, traditionally, I try to keep an eye on what links I click... And when I see a link that looks like xguxhjhd.za I won't click it... Who in the sane mind would give such a name to a domain...
I avoid .ru, .nu, and similar sites, just to be on the safe side... Or rather... I avoided them while I was on windows... Ever since I moved to Linux, I don't have such problems as spyware, viruses, and such... Generaly, what one would have to have is a good firewall (and by good I mean exclusively AtGuard firewall; the one that doesn't try to guess what you want, it simply deos what you tell him), a good decent antivirus, with fresh definitions, and good bloodhound and heuristics technology.... AVG was doing a great job for me, so I'd recommend it... Also, avoid IE in all it's skins, inlcuding ports of IE, like Maxton and others, that use IE engine... Use Opera or Firefox, as they are much more secure than IE, and not so much scceptible to spyware (but they're not immune either)... Those of you who use e-banking that requires IE, should use IE only to perform e-banking, and nothing more... |
