LiveLeak.com – How To Down Load A Computer Virus.
This video is right on, it is pretty easy to get a virus if you download and open “FREE STUFF”, from a website that you are not sure about. I think you can even get a virus from clicking on an Ad on a reputable site like Facebook or Google. They police their Ads, but they may miss one. I have especially seen it with Ads on Free Software sites and new sites.
A simple way that I check out a site is to us Alexa Traffic Rank extension in my Chrome browser. It gives you the World and US Ranking and how many sites are linked in. I figure if it has a pretty good ranking and uite a few sites linking in then it should be OK. However, if I download a piece of software I still scan it with Malwarebytes or Microsoft Security Essentials before I open it. Anyway Enjoy the Video … Joe

PC Matic and MyCleanPC … Just Say NO!
I can’t stand it, I’m sitting in my shop spending hours cleaning up computers and these commercials keep playing over and over and are such malarkey! One thing for sure, they have a BIG budget for commercials! I’ve never heard anything good about any of these types of services. It takes me hours to Clean-up a PC, especially those that have nasty Root-kit, Trojan and Backdoor viruses. Don’t waste your money on these automated “one button” tune-ups. Instead pay your favorite computer guy to do it. We computer guys run multiple Virus and Mal-ware scans and many other utilities and do eyeball checks of logs and whats running on your computer and much more. No one scan can catch all Mal-ware and viruses or fix everything that is wrong with your computer.
OK, I feel better now 🙂
One day I’m going to test these two and post a full report.
