Computer viruses, worms, Trojans, adware and spyware are at the very least a nuisance, and at worst can cause serious loss of productivity and vital data. The bad news is, they are here to stay. It has been estimated that nuisance programs are being created around the world at the rate of around six to ten per day. However, visitors to http://www.naviscope.com now have the chance to access information that will help them in this battle.In January 2004, the Mydoom worm was estimated to have infected several hundred thousand computers worldwide. This particular virus posed a serious security threat to those infected.
Once it gained access to computers via email, the worm was capable of collecting sensitive data such as passwords and account numbers by logging keystrokes, then passing the information on. Viruses and worms commonly cause a significant amount of disruption to the flow of email traffic by sending large volumes of useless emails which clog up the system. Some viruses install thousands of pointless little programs which slow down the operation of the computer, or cause it to freeze altogether.The other unfortunate thing for computer users is that it's now much easier to get caught out. Avoiding opening suspicious looking emails or attachments used to be an effective security measure, but not any more. Virus emails can now do their dirty work even if they are not opened.Anyone who uses computers either for business, or simply as a research, communication or entertainment tool, needs to have a reliable, effective virus protection regime in place, and to update it regularly.
Symantec are at the forefront of computer protection through products like Norton Antivirus, which is one of the world's leading antivirus software packages. The important feature of this product is that it stops the nuisance programs before they reach the computer system, where they do the damage. The software works by scanning and cleaning incoming and outgoing email messages for all known types of viruses, worms, spyware, adware and Trojans. It also scans instant message attachments for viruses and blocks them. The other essential feature of Norton Antivirus is that it automatically downloads regular updates, to keep pace with the constant flow of new software threats..

Two Person Business Takes Aim at Spyware the Cousin of Spam
Horseheads, NY (ContentDesk) April 2, 2004 -- To Quote Doug Wood, "The majority of people using the internet find out very quickly that regardless of there fast connections the computers begin to slow down dramatically over time.
We have found that many of those people spend money buying pop-up blockers, reinstalling software, buying parts they do not need and sometimes even being talked into brand new computers"This happened too often for Doug and his business partner Tina Brown (owner of BW Web Design) to just sit around silently, when offered office space from
DR. Jeffrey Patterson, DC of Chemung Chiropractic after correcting a number of problems with his PC's in his Horseheads Location.
The two of them decided to start what is now known as
DIY (Do It Yourself), PC-Workbench.After only two months of operation the duo has seen many a happy face and received quite a few outstanding compliments from people who had just about given up and now feel more...
Is Your Computer Sick?
Viruses and spyware usually show up on your computer one of two ways.
Either they invade your system with a frontal assault like the Huns attacking the Romans, or they sneak in a back door like a cat burglar.
Either way, once a virus or piece of spyware gets on your system, getting it off can rate harder than curing a severe case of trench foot! Viruses, malicious programs designed to disrupt normal computing, and spyware, programs intended to literally "spy" on your activities, can enter your computer a number of ways.
Most commonly they enter your system through an email attachment, by sharing files with an infected computer by disk, as a "ride along" with a 3rd party program you install, or through a "back door" port in your computer. Regardless of how they get on your system, once in place, they cause no end of headaches and frustration.
The following represent typical signs you may suffer from infection by a virus or piece of spyware.
