Always Keep Your Antivirus Software Up To Date
It should go without saying, but it’s always important to keep your computer well maintained and reduce the risk of malware infections.
Antivirus Software Is Critical
The primary thing the inexperienced computer user forgets to do is keep to the antivirus/malware program up to date. Antivirus programs are not something that you install once and then forget about, never to be used again. It’s critical that you keep the software up to date and run security sweeps at least once a week.Check the instructions on how to have the program automatically update itself. If it doesn’t have this feature make sure you do a manual update regularly. Even if the program is set to update automatically it wouldn’t hurt to do a manual update when the word is out that a virus is going around.
