Q&A SESSION ON COMPUTER BASIC SECURITY
A lot of people been asking me which basic security to protect their pc/ netbook/ notebook from viruses. For Windows XP, I will recommend Avast. If you are using Windows Vista/ 7, Microsoft Security Essentials works best. Microsoft Security Essentials is available for Windows XP but I will not recommend it because you need to retart your Windows after each scan conducted. As you know, to restart Windows XP takes longer time that Windows 7. But if using Windows 7, the Microsoft Security Essentials doesn't run that way. 
Besides having anti-virus, your pc need to equip with anti-malware to protect from spyware, malware and etc where you will have an identity theft as well. Highly recommended is malwarebytes for anti-malware. 
Certain computers are not provided with original Windows. Some shops will introduce non genuine Windows as to fulfill their customers budget. I will only recommend original Windows for easy repair and fixing. To add on to computers sellers income, they will come up with lots of anti-virus product. Only a handy of honest and computer shops will introduced free anti-virus. Choose the free anti-virus product. From time to time, there might be changes in using the best anti-virus in different type of operating system. I had been using free products for quite sometime and I had no problem yet. Anything downloaded from the web or thumb drive, please scan with anti-virus and anti-malware. Update it regularly.
