Yer PC's...
well...
i was wondrin what ya all do for yer computers security and as well as keeping it working and loading quickly... _____________________ this may sound like alot, but, w/ all these programs my computer is faster than a cheata on cocaine... VIRUS Protection -AVG free (finds ALOT of stuff macafee doesnt) -Macafee w/ firewall (just for laughs n giggles, cam w/ my computer) -Hijack this (does almost nothing, hard to use, again, just for laughs and giggles) Anti-SPYWARE -Adaware SE free (finds stuff that microsoft doesn't... and the free ver. is better than the paid) -Microsoft Anitspywre (finds stuff that Adaware does not) -Tune Up Utilities (highly recomended, goes through every file and the registry and makes my computer 10x faster) -Tor & Privoxy & TorCP bundle (No ip adress visable, encrypts my connection to the internet) -Accelerate (optimizes internet connection speed) BROWSER -Firefox (a MUST have... more secure than microsoft IE, and easier to use than opera, the extensions are great... there are so many...) alot of these programs require a payment... if anyone is interested in them PM, i can tell you the best place to get them:shifty: |

I use a Mac.
...and Linux. No problems. No extra software needed just to keep my machines 'safe'. Behind a hardware firewall too. The wife's machine is Windows XP; but she knows how to use it. AVG, Firefox, Thunderbird - no problems. |
