Virus & Spam Prevention  Viruses and Spam are two of the most commonly referenced computer buzzwords these days. Both have become household words - below are descriptions of each. Viruses and Malware  Computer viruses have been around for as long as there have been personal  computer networks to proliferate them, starting with the "Creeper" virus in the  early 1970s. There are many thoughts as to what started them, but never a solid  answer that applies to all of them. There have been stories that say they came  from bored, unemployed programmers; that they are the creation of terrorists; that  they are created by angry teenagers. The end result is that they can come from  anywhere and can simply be written by anyone with a moderate understanding of  computer programming. Due to the growing number and the many types that  make up the broad term it's hard to establish an accurate number; though you may  see anything from 10,000 to 1 million reported, with that number growing by as  many as 600 per month.   Whether you are dealing with viruses, worms, trojans, ad-ware,  malware, spyware, or any of the many other nuisances out there, we can  help you put together a plan to protect yourself and prevent infection.   Spam Spam is unfortunately a common problem that just about anyone with a computer  has had to deal with. By definition, any email that you get that is advertising a  product or service that is unsolicited by you is considered Spam. They come in the  form of promises of fantastic weight reduction, terrific prices on watches, and the  ever-popular guarantee of the best prices for the pharmaceuticals that you need.  There are ways to avoid getting an unreasonable amount of Spam in your mail  account, but nearly everyone has to do a certain amount of work to sort through  what they do get.   We can install and configure software that will assist with eliminating  the majority of Spam that comes to you as well as to help prevent the  detection of "false positives" - mail that you do want that isn't really  Spam but appears to be, saving you valuable time and reducing your  daily frustrations.   Virus & Spam Protection We help you avoid these nuisances HOME ABOUT US CONTACT SIGN UP FOR UPDATES Copyright ©2010 Technical Resource Solutions, LLC  |  All Rights Reserved Home IT Services Web Design About Us Contact Us Blog Computer Training
