Keep Your Computer Healthy and Fast - Without Spending a Dime!

If You Use the Internet, Your Computer Might Be Infected!

Has your computer been working slower than usual? If you answered yes, chances are, your computer has a bad case of spywaritis.

Spyware is a program that sits unnoticed on your hard drive, collecting names of websites you go to, products you buy, news you read, and other very personal information. Marketing and advertising companies pay a lot of money for this information. And companies that collect this information download these spyware programs into your hard drive without your permission - or even knowledge, jeopardising your security and your privacy.

Your computer security can be breached without your knowledge. When you go to some websites, the web pages automatically download spyware programs into your computer. Sometimes, you might see a pop-up that asks you to download a certain program, such as a language pack. Whenever you see such popups, never click Yes unless you are absolutely sure the program is safe.

But even if you don't see a popup, you can't be sure that the website carries no spyware. Many websites download harmful programs into your computer automatically as soon as you open them, without any warning at all. Once spyware programs are downloaded into your computer, they keep working in the background, opening automatically whenever you turn on your computer, taking up speed and memory and slowing your computer down.

Another bug that might be plaguing your computer is a computer virus. Computer viruses have been in the news for years: these smart, hard to detect programs wreak havoc on the most heavily protected websites and computers. The worst part about a virus is that you might get it from a person you know and trust: some viruses are written in a way that they use the computer they've infected to spread further. This means that even an act like opening an e-card from your sister might breach your computer security and infect your computer with a harmful virus program.
