So you got an email from cousin Johnny or aunt Meg promising to show you the pictures of their latest weekend outing. But instead you got the latest and greatest virus making the rounds on the web. What do you do now? Other than calling cousin Johnny or aunt Meg to give them a piece of your mind, CybEnt can get you back to normality by running a virus scan with the latest definitions.

But the best solution would have been to have prevented the virus attack in the first place. CybEnt can help you protect your computer from the daily bombardment of viruses and malicious programs going around the web. We highly recommend using either Norton's Antivirus, or McAfee Antivirus with the latest definitions to protect your computer.

It is important to update your virus scans definitions periodically (weekly). The way virus scans work leaves them unprotected on the newest and latest viruses. In order for your virus scan to properly protect you, it has to update the profile of the viruses to be on the look out for. But in order for viruses to be included in definitions, they first have to be identified, which still leaves many viruses undetected even by the greatest virus protection software. CybEnt can help fortress your computer against these everyday attacks.

There was a point where we only had to look out for viruses, but now many programs include spyware and adware along with their applications. They install silently in the background as you install the "host" application. Spyware tends to monitor your online activity, (e.g., sites you visit, how often you visit, what you click on and so forth) and adware works by sending ads to you while you're surfing. Some adware now sends ads to you using Microsoft's messaging system. And not to mention the annoying pop-ups.

All these malicious programs can heavily reduce your systems resources, negatively affecting performance along with being annoying and invading your privacy. CybEnt can rescue and protect you from the cyber on-slaught. Contact info@cybent.com for assistance.
