Thread: Information about Microsoft excellent Security

I've never received having malware on my laptop. I imagine I'm one of the fortunate ones and I owe that to Microsoft. I became to a website today that I had never saw earlier.

It was like to Hula and I believed the site was safe. Abruptly, a window popped up with a message that I had each kind of viruses on my computer. The following thing it required to do was scan my laptop. It covered continue or cancel. I wasn't confirming what to do at first, so I didn't hit either of the buttons.

I hit the red x instead and tried to close it. When I attempted to close it, I was redirected to a page that began some type of scan. I was attempting to exit off that page, and luckily, the Smart Screen filter in IE8 immediately blocked the page from scanning any further. It also let me know that Smart Screen had blocked it and was going to close IE8 to prevent the page from scanning my laptop.

It provided continue or cancel. I wasn't confirming what to do at initial so I didn't hit either of the buttons. Sometimes, simply by attaining the continue OR even the cancel selection with these malware programs can really actuate the virus.

The better direction to get rid of these windows is to open the command prompt and destroy the procedure from there.

I'm so grateful I carried about what occurred now. I'm also grateful that I didn't hit the continue or cancel buttons. Sharing the command prompts. I'll experience what to do now if it always finds again. I'm simply thankful that the Smart Screen filter in IE 8 blocked the procedure and didn't let it continue.

Several people bring the changes to click either one by using the flip-a-coin technique. Face book is satisfied with malware these days that hackers are attempting to invoke during the internet.

Doesn’t utilize Face book, while i do coincide that Face book is a dream. It's just a matter of time earlier individual tries to steal her identity. FYI daybook. Com is blocked from always connecting to my system.

I simply never required a Face book account. One cause is as I didn't have time for it. I have a website that I like bringing on when I have time. I'd quite work on it instead of having Face book. I believe my website is safer.

I was conceiving out noisy, whether utilize Face book or not. My comment was blunt, not a matter if used it. I don't believe Social Sites. At least from a Security position.

It all comes down to the user how much information they give away, if they realize the secrecy settings, can they identify a spam email etc. Windows Live Profiles are a protection nightmare also; one blusher setting can give away everything.
