Windows Virus Protection
What comes to mind when you hear the word 'virus'? The Flu virus is one of the most common viruses today. Flu season usually comes with the cold weather. So to protect oneself from getting this virus, many people receive vaccinations before the flu virus begins to show up.
However, there is no virus season for a computer. In fact, if you had to accurately pick a season for computer viruses, you would have to say that the whole year is the season. This is a sad but true fact. Viruses constantly affect computers, many times crippling them, causing the user hours of hard and frustrating work to isolate and then resolve the problem. Worse still, if the user cannot fix the problem, one may have to reinstall the operating system, possibly losing all their data that had not been backed up. There is also a possibility that the user would have to pay for expert help to fix their infected system. This is exactly what we want to prevent from happening. If you want to protect your computer from being infected, then you must constantly be on guard and have a good, solid defense to ward off these unwanted visitors.

A virus is usually a small program that, once it is installed on your computer, either willingly or forced, usually causes it to act in ways that you would not want it to.
