Do you like running your virus scanner?

Do you like to continually run your Virus Scanner?

Virus Scanners are a serious indication that something bad is happening, but the problem is that they are powerless to stop the issues, because a virus scanner only has the ability to detect a virus, after you have been infected.

For many years we recommended one virus scanner as being able to detect more viruses than another. Brand A held the competition back for more than two years. Then Brand A failed to stop the viruses.

If you are not using a Spam filtering service (like ours) and you have gotten a virus in your office system, chances are High that the rest of the computers in your network will be infected as well. This means that you need to run the virus scanner on not just one PC, but on all of them.

Our Spam filtering service is yet another layer of defense in security because in addition to eliminating Spam, we also scan all emails for viruses as well. Our Servers check for updates every 20 minutes. Can you spend that much time just checking to see if your Virus Scanner is up to date?

Our Spam filtering service stops more viruses than ever before, including the zero-day exploits. Zero Day Exploits are New viruses which make use of the latest windows based vulnerabilities, on the same day that they are detected.

Because we employs a multi-layered approach to Email Security, we eliminate the threat of the Zero-Day Exploit, thus making your business significantly better protected.

So to put this in other terms, Virus Scanning is like taking an Advil for your Cold. It will not stop the Cold, but it may make you feel a little better in the process. Spam Filtering is like washing your hands, meaning that the best method to spreading the virus, is to prevent it from spreading.

So, if you have gotten a virus lately, just as you would go to see the doctor about your personal health, pay us a visit to diagnose your computer issues. We have Free software tools that we will recommend for all of our New customers.

anti virus programs anti virus programs - Hey Beat- Some anti virus programs won't run well with other anti virus programs so obtaining too many may not work, so you may want to settle on one good one. My computer guy recommended a free download called AVG virus scan and he told me to use it in conjuction with another free download by Lavasoft called Adaware...it was good too, both kept my computer safe for a whole year before I finally hooked up with my internet service provider (who provides MacAfee free with their paid services). I just got a computer that came with Norton. All three are good anti-virus programs but if you want to overprotect your computer, you may need to first find out if each is compatable with the other.
