Help is at hand for web security

If you take your net safety seriously, you will probably have anti-virus and a firewall and perhaps even an anti-spam program to stop the malicious software and messages getting at your home PC.

But this does not cover all the possible ways that the bad guys are trying to catch you out. Increasingly the makers of adware, spyware and viruses are using ordinary-looking websites as launch pads for their malicious creations that try to compromise your Windows computer when you visit.

But now Help is at hand for web security. The good news is that computer security is getting harder to avoid and excuses for not protecting yourself and family online are becoming harder to find.
