Computer Security for you Home & Office PC

When you deal with any investment account online, it is very important to secure your home PC when you are online constantly. To secure your PC, one must have the following:
  • anti-virus program, such as Symantec Anti-virus
  • firewall, a free personal firewall such as ZoneAlarm
  • antispyware, such as the Microsoft Antispyware
If you have a wireless router, disable broadcast, enable encryption.

Since most program uses e-gold as the primary payment processor, it is very important to use the SRK feature, even though it is troublesome, but it is well worth the trouble. This is necessary if your PC is infested with virus or trojan without your knowledge. Never use your email account on e-gold same as other program account.

Never uses the same password on any HYIP program, preferbly use some kind of password generator, such as Roboform. Use FireFox instead of Microsoft Internet Explorer, to avoid more security holes.

Scan your PC on a daily basis with anti-virus software and anti-spyware.
