Computer Usage Columns - Tip Off Anti-spyware software
My computer is infected with spyware. It has changed my home page and I am not able to restore the earlier one. Please suggest some good anti-spyware software.
Raghu Vamshi Spybot and Adaware are well known and freely downloadable utilities, which you can download and install from the following sites, respectively, http://www.snapfiles.com/get/spybot.html and http://www.snapfiles.com/get/adaware.html These software have a database of the spywares and need to be updated periodically so you can have the latest spywares information up-to-date. This is similar to updating your Antivirus programmes. You can use the respective Update programs that come with each of these software. For more information on securing your system, please look up http://www.blonnet.com/ ew/2003/03/12/stories/2003031200260400.htm
Please e-mail us at eworld@thehindu.co.in if you have queries on computer usage or if you find an interesting way of using a computer.
