Hello everyone :D

I'm new to this forum and hope this is ok to post this message here. I'm getting a new system and I want to know the best way to protect myself against hackers spammers and the like :confused: My setup right now is an old AMD system hooked to the internet through a Motorola cable modem and wireless router. It just freaks me out everytime I run spybot and adaware :eek: all those dirty bastards that try to ruin my day :mad: Sorry for the language anyway any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I'd look into virus protection software like Norton or Mcaffee (theres others as well...just those are biggest 2). Install a firewall of somekind and run regular system scans. A decent virus software/firewall/and regular scans should keep you in pretty good shape for the normal user.

EDIT: POST 666...scary! :P
 
Normal¿¿ :eek: Who The Hell Is Normal¿¿ :D Just yanking your chain thanks for the advice. I haven't read the manual on my wireless router yet but it is suppose to have built in firewall protection. Guess I'll have to kill another tree so I can print the manual.. Man the good old days when your computer hardware actually came with a preprinted manual :rolleyes:
