Secure your Computer!

Richard Hall - Thursday, December 30, 2010


We would like to hear from everybody by way of the comments section below on what we can all do to better secure our computers. From Computer Origins POV (and most probably yours), an Anti-virus program alone just doesn't cut it.

We have a few ideas to start you off:
  • Divorce Internet Explorer! Get the Firefox web site browser instead (or lots of others, don't forget to scroll to the right!);
  • If you get Firefox, add the NoScript addon to block all website "scripts" until you allow them (download here);
  • Install a key stroke encrypting application like KeyScrambler to confuse key-loggers.
Know something better? Feel free to add your own (tried & tested) application that could benefit everybody by making a comment below!

Testimonials

10/10 from: Sharon & Nick Kain, Brighton Bookkeeping, Butler, received: 25-May-2012 :

Running a business from home, we obviously have no IT department.  Richard at Computer Origins is a great foundation of information with all our computer needs.  He’s been a fantastic source of knowledge for integrating our business and personal computer needs as well as solving any problems that come up along the way and his pricing is always fair and reasonable.  People often talk to us about their computer issues and we have no hesitation in sending them to Richard.
