Finally! May 18th, 2008 Microsoft released with Service Pack 1 for Vista. A service pack is meant to fix all or some of the little or large bugs, and known issues on your computer. Similar to Windows XP the update is rather simple and if your computer is set to automatically update itself then you shouldn’t have to do anything at all. |

Scan for Adware at least once per month
A program that specifically scans for adware can be a great tool to have for any business. Programs such as Ad-Aware and Spybot-Search and Destroy can search for any registry changes that may be caused by adware or spyware. These programs may be able to find additional adware and spyware that do not show up in your Anti-Virus program. The best part is, both of these programs are absolutely free.
Watch for “Click Here for $$$” advertisements on web pages
If you see an ad that tells you it’s going to give you a ton of money, stay far, far away! About the only prize you can receive from one of these ads is a slow PC full of adware. Not cool!
Don’t make your password “password”
You should NEVER make your password “password” or something similar to a default password. I definitely agree that passwords can be the most annoying things in the world to have to remember, but they are very important to keeping your data safe. Taping them to the front of your monitor or hiding them under the keyboard may help you to remember what they are, but isn’t much of a data theft deterrent. Download password saver.

Simple Solutions To Data Security
Using the web is something we often do for fun, but is required for doing business in the modern world. A few things come along with using the web. The good: games, videos, social networking, and much more. Then there’s the bad: viruses, spam, pop-ups, and data loss. How is one to draw the line between good and bad? Sometimes this isn’t always possible and we lose important data such as work documents, contact information, music, movies, and, at times, business critical information. How can we keep ourselves protected from this threat?
