#1 Best Antivirus Software

 Okay so what is the best antivirus software ? I get asked that question so much it makes my head spin. Yes I can sit here and say it's Webroot, Mcafee, Nortons, Kaspersky, AVG, Avast and many more. We all have our preferences due to using a particular antivirus software for years. It may have been something that was installed on your Hewlett Packard computer when you bought it. There are some very good websites such as http://www.av-comparatives.org/ that can provide lots of information. There are many other websites that provide good information about the various antivirus programs. The only thing I would say is watch out if they are promoting that antivirus software. You see they will tell you all kinds of good things about it. That's how they are making their money.
 Watch out for any place that tries to say they guarantee their software they are selling will stop all viruses, malware, spyware and adware. You see that is a bunch of boloney. No antivirus software can stop everything. As far as the customer is concerned the best method is to avoid email that you don't know the sender. Delete that unknown email. If you get a message from Microsoft or someone else don't answer or call them. If something pops up on your computer telling you that you are infected don't click on it to close it out. That click may in fact start the infection on your computer. The best thing is to shut your computer down normally or hold the power button to power the computer off. This will not damage your hard drive. You just do not want to kill the power as this may damage the hard drive or cause hard drive corruption such as cross linked files or orphaned files.
 So what then is the best way to never get a virus, malware, spyware or Adware on your computer.
TURN THE COMPUTER OFF, DISCONNECT IT FROM THE INTERNET AND NEVER USE IT AGAIN.
 Sounds a little harsh doesn't it. If you are going to use your computer for personal use or in a work environment I recommend to always BACK UP YOUR SYSTEM.

My Computer Is Slow

 Help my computer is too slow. What can I do to speed it up? You need to ask yourself a few questions before you do anything.

1. Do you have pop ups
2. Are webpages being redirected
3. Were you on the internet just before this started
4. Did you open an email just before this started
5. Did the power go out and come right back on
6. Do you have plenty of free hard drive space
7. How much ram memory do you have
8. How old is your computer
9. Is your Antivirus Software up to date
10. Have you scanned with anything such as malwarebytes or spybot
11. Did you recently install any programs
12. Did you just install a windows update

 The above are all questions you should learn to ask yourself because if you take your computer to a service center they may ask you these questions. You can always find videos on youtube on how to check memory in a computer or hard drive space. You should always learn how to take care of your computer, because it can become very expensive if you have to take it to a service center for repair at least 2 or 3 times a year. So why not learn how to take care of it and save money. If you do take your computer somewhere remember to check reviews on the service center in question.

Windows 10

 

  You may have noticed that down in the taskbar near the time is a little white 4 square Microsoft symbol. This is the symbol allowing you to reserve your free upgrade to windows 10. The windows 10 Upgrade is supposed to be made available  July 29th 2015. This will be a full version and not a trial version. Just be aware that if you upgrade to windows 10 you can not go back. The best course of action is to perform a back up of your entire system to an external hard drive using the back up in windows 7. In windows 8 and 8.1 you have to perform the image back up manually and you can also perform a file history. The other option is backing up your entire system to the cloud using something such as carbonite. Just make sure you have a full system image package and not just the data.

                      


                      

If you do not see the windows 10 icon upgrade here is a website on how to get it http://superuser.com/questions/922441/why-don-t-i-have-the-get-windows-10-icon . I did this on one of my computers and it worked. 

Once again if you are thinking of going to windows 10 just back up your windows 7, 8 or 8.1 systems first.
