| Viruses are malicious files that are downloaded to your hard drive and then deployed using the programming within the file. There are many types of viruses out there. Some viruses watch your online activity, which may seem harmless, but they can gather your browsing preferences and send that information back to the creator of the virus. This information can contain keystrokes (known as keylogging), which could include passwords to banking or other financial websites. Having a good anti-virus program which provides real time scanning is a must these days. Viruses can be downloaded anywhere, from a website you normally visit to an email attachment you thought was safe. Remember to always use online safety practices such as deleting cookies, web browsing history and most importantly always scan attachments before opening them. If you are unsure of an email attachment or its origination, simply deleting it is always the safest way to go. A lot of email programs these days offer email scanning and there are also several very good freeware (no cost) virus scanning programs which include real time scanning as well as boot scanning (scanning your system at startup). But, how do you know if your computer is infected? Your computer performance will decrease significantly, it may start acting abnormally, such as opening programs you didn't open. You may notice missing or corrupt files on your computer as well. If you experience any of these issues on your computer, bring it in and we will run a virus check on it for you free of charge!
