Due to a variety of software factors, after about 2 or 3 years or most computers will start slowing down noticeably. A performance optimization or reinstallation of the Windows operating system can make a world of difference in terms of reviving your computer’s lost performance, and at a fraction of the cost of purchasing a new one. That old(ish) system of yours may still have a lot of life in it yet.

This is vitally important. Microsoft regularly releases security updates for Windows operating systems, whether you’re using Windows XP, Vista, or the new 7. Big collections of security updates and bug fixes are called “service packs.” If you are running Windows XP, as of this date, you should also have Service Pack 3 installed. For Vista, Service Pack 2. For Windows 7, service pack 1.

Unless you have a good reason for not doing so, Automatic Updates should be turned on.

Most people “in the know” believe Firefox is a more secure and better updated web browser, not quite as prone to exploits as IE.

Opening up unknown email attachments is a great way to infect your computer with a virus.

These so-called “free” programs often contain adware or worse and can result in your computer being plagued with pop-up advertisements amongst other very annoying things. In general, if you don’t have a good reason to trust the source of the free game or program do not download it, install it, or agree to install it.

Use your common sense in this respect.

Understand that if you let your precocious 13 year old play around on your computer, with free reign to the Internet, it is probably not going to be long before your computer is infected with all sorts of malware. Again, use your own best judgement on this. Your 13 year old may know more about computers than you do, but he doesn’t have to pay for the computer repair technician 😉

The Internet is full of scams, preditors, and malware, and deserves due cautiousness on your part, but if you follow some basic rules then you can dramatically reduce your exposure to them. And enjoy the Internet as it was meant to be enjoyed.
