This is a look back to a blog we did in May this year discussing the issues of Malware on your PC.

If you have received a PC for Christmas, take care not to open suspicious emails and make sure you take the time to load on all your Antivirus Software. Here is what we wrote back in May….

“We have all seen the effects of a virus on a computer but we don’t all fully understand what the virus is doing.

Is it just there to be a nuisance?

We are sorry to tell you that it is a lot more sinister than that. “Malware” is designed to allow data thieves to access your computer and obtain key information about you.

Don’t open email attachments or other downloads unless you’re sure they’re from a trusted source. Always make sure your Antivirus and Antispyware software is up to data as it is much easier to prevent a virus that get rid of it.

At Secure Data Recycling we see so many Computers where they either don’t have Antivirus and Antispyware software or it is woefully out of date.
