Virus Removal Software

Almost everyone that I know that has a computer tells me at some point in time their computer has managed to contract a virus.  I don’t understand how naive these people are; they get the virus by visiting unscrupulous websites (for example sites that are trying to make money selling pornographic materials) or they are opening up emails from senders that they don’t already know and trust.  I thought everyone knew by now that when you do that you are opening up yourself to the very real risk of getting a virus or a spyware program put on your computer.  And once those little stinkers get into your computer, they wreak havoc!  Your computer can crash, or your private information, such as bank account and credit card account information is at risk of being given out to unscrupulous people who will use that information to their advantage! 

Everyone should have the best Virus Removal Software they can get on their computers if they access the internet at all.  Cyberdefender sells a great software package that protects your computer against spyware and viruses.  They have real-time security updates and 2GB online backup.  They are fully compatible with other security software.  They have been endorsed by USA Today, eWeek and ComputerWorld as being effective, fast and easy to use.

Calls after bedtime

Filed under: Business, Family, General Living, Local — Copa @ 4:13 am

The phone rang at 8:15pm last night (we go to bed at 7pm because we get up at 3am!) from The Washington Post newspaper, trying to get us to subscribe to their daily paper.  We already get the Sunday paper subscription.  They call us at least once a week trying to get us to upgrade to daily.  We’ve told them several times to put us on the “Do not call” list but they keep calling!  Anyway, they woke us up and we couldn’t get back to sleep until 10:30, so we were NOT happy!  Next time they call us I think I’ll tell them AGAIN to put us on the “Do Not Call list” and tell them that they next time they call us we will cancel the subscription that we DO have!
