Nowaday, there are too many viruses, malwares, spywares. So you are always in danger when you connect to the internet. But if you do some preparations, you will certainly be able to make your net surfing safer. Take the following steps to make you at ease while enjoy surfing the net:
- You will need a firewall. If you are using Windows XP, then it's internal firewall is good enough. Otherwsie, you can find a few free firewall softwares for personal use, a very popular one is ZoneAlarm, you can download it from here
- You will need an Anti-Virus software, if you can afford to subscribe one, that will be nice. Some of those famous ones are Norton Antivirus, McAfee. Otherwise, just get AVG Anti-virus Free Edition It's good enough.
- You will also need something to search and distroy Spyware, Get Spybot Search and Destroy 1.4
- I will highly recommend you to use latest version of Firefox (1.5.0.2) browser, it supports tabbed navigation. It has many free extentions, and it's far more secure than Internet Explorer (a new beta version Internet Explorer 7 has some improvement on that). You can download Firefox from here.
