Virus Protection Tips

With the developing technology of Ai, viruses and scams are getting smarter and anyone can fall victim, especially if you're not used to navigating the web.

First, the best way to avoid viruses is to use a trusted antivirus software and keep it up to date. Most programs run quietly in the background and automatically scan for threats.

Be cautious of emails or pop-up messages asking you to click links or share personal information. If something seems off, it probably is.

Avoid downloading unknown programs, and keep your computer’s system updates current.

If you’re ever unsure or think your computer might already have a virus, it’s worth getting it checked professionally. Dateline Computers can remove viruses, install protection, and help you stay secure.
