Windows Security Updates

[GeorgeS]

I have been fighting computer problems that last two days.

Anyway, just a reminder, Microsoft has a lot of Security updates for free download on their sight.

If you have not checked this for awhile.

I just had to get another laptop & set it for Windows auto-updates.

 

Still waiting for one that'll make Vista Home Premium work right.

Then there is Anti-Virus that MS can't provide & Adware Blockers, Spybot/Spyware removers, Hardware Firewall, etc.

 

There is a lot of freeware on the net for this, but it's actually the exact mess you don't want on your PC.

 

At least backup drives are cheap enough these days [.5 Terabyte backup drive is about $120.] more than can be used.

Well I found that the auto updates does not get them all.

I did that, but still found many more " Security Updates "

I keep forgetting to check, ever since I got the mac.

Been using AVG Anti-Malware 7.5 for years have had no problems. Built 2 desk tops and purchase 3 lap tops over the years. Running Vista on the new Lap-Top. Found AVG works well for me. Not sure but I think I pay $40.00 for two years, well worth it. They also have a free unlimited use with out the Malware. I use the free AVG for years and liked it so much I decided to upgrade and pay for a licenses. I'm glad I did.
