Anti-Hacking

The only way to make a computer 100% hacker proof is to disconnect it from the internet or turn it off. Since this simply isn't feasible, the security-minded computer user attempts to make it 99% secure. There are a few common ways to accomplish this task.
They are:

* Firewalls
* Software
* Basic Computer Precautions

Our information on firewalls is on our firewall page.

The information on the may types of software is on our software page.

The basic computer precautions to follow are:

* Don't give out e-mail address to someone you don't know. This can cause unwanted emails or advertising material you don't want (spam).
* The opening of any mail-not just attachments-is potentially dangerous to your computer. Even just the previewing of an infected email can do the damage.
