Things You Can Do To Keep Your Computer Healthy
1. Install antivirus software – be sure you keep this up to date at least update it one a week or have it set to update automatically.
2. Install antispyware – this may come with your antivirus, but if it does not, install and keep an up to date antispyware program
3. Allow your operating system to automatically update your system; they do this in order to fix security holes in the system.
4. Use strong passwords – this mixes numbers, upper and lower case letters for example (annE1989). If you are afraid you will forget your password, use a trick that will allow you to write down a hint nobody else will understand. For example, the initials of the first and last name of your primary school best friend followed by the year you first met, or your friend's birth date. Hint: your friend’s name.
5. Install and use Firefox - this is a free internet browser that is more secure than Internet Explorer 7 because hackers mostly try to infect the most used browser.
6. Defragment your computer hard drive – defragmentation software comes in Windows and is useful because it increases space and load times from the hard drive.
7. Delete history, cookies and cache from your Internet browser - this will speed up your system and protect you from hackers who use those files.
8. Secure your wireless connections – passwords protect your wireless internet and this saves you from people using your network. Most wireless routers come with software that will help you do this.
