Despite of great advancements in computers and the Internet, safe Internet browsing remains a big worry for Internet users across the world.
It is one problem that i have always had with my computer since the last 10 years. And now i have got so bugged up with this problem that i have separate PCs for working and internet browsing. The problem that i have faced while internet browsing is, that no matter how good a virus protection software you might be having on your computer, these invisible code worms just seem to creep in somehow. And they have so many kinds; gosh, Trojans, Trojan horses, Spywares, Adwares, viruses, bla-bla-bla.
And once these crawly creeps sneak into your system, they slowly it down to almost a pedestrian’s pace really. Despite of the fact that you might be having dual core or a Quadra core; the system’s performance is reduced down to almost a 286. And especially for these anti-virus programs, i have a feeling that they have their own agents who design these creepy worms for them, so that their Anti-virus software could find harrowed users on the Internet. Although the technology in computers has really come of age; i still feel that safe internet browsing is one area which has not been thoroughly addresses till now.
Some say that I must have my firewall protection on… or my anti-virus system might be weak… they say that the ones who are making those viruses are the ones who created the anti-virus software to be able for them to gain more clients through the internet world and computer technology. They have also suggested me to change my anti-virus software; somebody also suggested me to not purchase the software, but just try it for the trial period. The anti-virus software he was using was bit defender security suite 2009, and he said that it really works.
I have also incorporated these suggestions to keep me fully protected, but somehow I feel that some or the other problem just keeps on coming up. I have also found out that firewall makes the PC a lot slower in response as you have frequent interruptions; with annoying messages popping up in the middle of a serious and engrossing work. Although i have installed firewall protection in my PC, but sometimes it becomes so annoying that i am forced to turn it off.
Finally after all the pains and troubles that I have taken through these years; I strongly feel that my solution of keeping 1 PC for non-internet, and 1 PC for internet use is the only solution that can keep my main important PC in a healthy state.
