Keep your PC free from viruses and malware

The motives and methods of virus writer are more sophosticated these days. When computer viruses first started to appear they were disruptive, deleting data and system files to cause mischief. These day malicious software is far more likely to sit in the background and attempt to steal your personal information, often for financial gain.

The current issue of Computeractive explains everything you need to know in order to keep you, your computer and your private information safe. We show how to find the malicious software that may have been missed, stop it in its tracks and then remove it from the computer. Click here to read an online preview of Computeractive Issue 391 now.

Although the 4G auction winners have set up a not-for-profit organisation called Digital Mobile Spectrum Limited (DMSL) which will pay for filters for many homes which will need them, not every household will qualify.
