VIRUS PROTECTION

Up To Date Anti Virus Program

Viruses are an increasing menace. Just a few short years ago viruses were simply the source of conversation but rarely a reality. But today viruses are so widespread and common that they are one of the first places we look anytime we are evaluating a computer's performance.

To have an effective virus protection on your computer requires that you take two steps.

• The first is to install an anti virus program on your computer.




• The second is to frequently visit the web site of the company that provides the virus protection to download and install the latest updates.

Do you currently have a virus protection program installed on your computer? If not, virus protection programs are available at a number of stores or can be purchased online. The provider will offer instructions that will assist you in the process of actually installing the software on your computer. If you find the instructions confusing or unclear don't worry. Simply email or call Two Techs with the name of the virus program and we will gladly offer you the assistance you need to complete this task.

If you do already have an anti virus program that currently allows you to download updates installed on your computer, go to the next section titled Downloading the Latest Updates For Your Virus Program From the Web and follow the instructions there. If your virus program is our of date you will either need to purchase a support package from them or replace them with another program.

Two Techs cautions against having more than one virus protection program installed on your computer. In some cases this may cause your entire system to lock up. To avoid this follow the path Start | Settings | Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs. Review the list of programs listed and look for any virus protection programs installed. Make sure that you only have one virus program installed! If you show one here and you intend to install a new and different one, it is important that you remove any virus programs you find here first.

There are new viruses coming out constantly. If your virus protection is out of date it may not be able to combat a particular virus that it may encounter. The provider has a web site that offers you the ability to download the latest updates to keep your virus protection robust and current. You should visit this site at least once a month but Two Techs recommends that you update your protection twice a month or once a week. Virus protection programs today offer you the ability to receive an update by choosing settings from within the program rather than going to their web site and searching for the information there. If you have any problem finding this information in your virus program just email or call Two Techs and we will gladly assist you in downloading the latest updates for your virus program.
