First line of defense – a good anti-virus program

NewsFactor Network writes: “I remember when computer viruses were first in the news. At that time the media – me included – blew the dangers all out of proportion. News magazines featured stories on the cover that made it sound as if life as we knew it was about to end because of them. We weren’t trying to be hysterical. Viruses were brand-new and, as is true with a lot of new things in the world of technology, we fear most the things we understand least. Nowadays viruses and computer worms are finally living up to that hype.”
