[ad#ad2-left]I personally like to recommend a program that will do a better job at security and that is Firefox, I also suggest people use the Thunderbird and not Microsoft mail program. This will greatly reduce your likely hood of getting a virus or Trojan. Most of the time hackers like to find new ways to infection to get into your system. If you want to preven having a virus in the future, I’d recommend going to my Malware Resource and check out a good firewall and anti-virus. This will prevent you from getting some of the viruses and other types of malware.
