[description], Story, any other text you want to use. Protect Your Computer...and Your Business! by: Ahmad Supaat
We all take the computer for granted. I mean, all we have to do is switch it on and it's ready to go. But did you ever stop to think what would happen if your computer suddenly crashed? And that is the only computer you have to work on! What will happen to your work and your business for the next few days or weeks? Do you have the original or a copy of all your programs? Do you have the setup configurations, eg for your ISP?. You will need this to re-install some programs. Do you have a copy of your email address book? Your email list or address book is vital to your business. Do you remember all your passwords - for retrieving email, connecting to your ISP, membership sites, etc? So what can you do to ensure that your computer will run as well as you'd expect, and continue working when your computer is down? Here's a few simple tips: 1.Is your computer protected from viruses? Install an anti-virus software such as Norton AntiVirus or McAfee, and make sure to get regular updates. New viruses are coming out more often these days so you need to have updates regularly. Anything more than 3 months old needs to be updated today. You can do an online virus scan at: http://housecall.antivirus.com 2.Install a firewall. Anytime your computer is connected to the Internet without a firewall, it is operating under an "open door" policy to intruders. Hackers can get in, take what they want, and even leave open a "back door" so they can turn your computer into a "zombie" and use it to attack other computers, distribute porn and spam. Your bank account and credit card information, passwords, documents and personal files can be stolen while you're busy surfing. Don't let that happen! You can download a personal firewall from here:
3. Make regular backups of your important files. Keep a record of all vital information, such as passwords, system configurations, etc. in a file and also print a copy of this and keep in a safe place. Make a duplicate and keep at another location. If your computer does not come with a zip drive or CDRW drive, it would be a good idea to invest in one. Zip drives and CDRW drives are inexpensive and can be easily installed. The cost of a blank CD for example is less than $1.00 and can store up to 650MB of data. If you lost some files or your hard disk crashed you can easily retrieve them from the backups. And if your computer is down for repair, you can take that backup CD and work from another machine. 4.Remove all unwanted files on your hard disk. You can safely remove files in your temporary internet folder. In Internet Explorer, select Tools -> Internet options - > Delete Files. 5.Increase your systems performance by defragmenting your hard disk regularly. As applications and files are saved and deleted they gradually cause your hard disk to fragment. By defragmenting your hard disk you can optimise the performance of your computer. Defragmenting may also save wear and tear on your hard disk and extend its lifespan. Do this today.
