Fake Security Alerts & other Internet Bad Guys CAN be prevented

Over the past few years, the majority of my professional time has been digging computer users (Windows users only) out of jams where they were infiltrated by fake security software or spyware. Two things you need to know about this type of infection:

  1. No matter what type of security software you use and how much you paid for it, IT CANNOT PROTECT YOU IF YOU INVITE THE BAD GUY INTO YOUR COMPUTER.
  2. It is preventable.

Over the years, security and keeping computers running clean has been a common soap box for me. Listed below are just a handful of the articles you need to read, re-read, understand, and implement…TODAY!! Doing so will prevent your computer from becoming infiltrated with this disease of the Internet.

  1. Re: fake internet security software.

    I have recently received skype messages that my computer is infected and I need to take immediate action. I have blocked this caller and reported it to skype. It is kind of insidious because it is made to look like the message is coming from skype, and how they get through to you is not clear to me. Anyway wanted to alert your readers as to a new way they are coming at us.
