Some viruses can be no more harmful than the common
cold, but others are deadly, destroying your data or even killing your
hard drive. With more than 50,000 known strains, the chances are that
your computer will contract one at some point in its life.
As many computer users don't use current anti-virus software, and viruses
can spread to your system easily from the Internet, e-mail attachments
or peer-to-peer groups, an epidemic could easily occur. Fortunately, there
is a sulution to this problem and preventative measures can be taken to
ensure that you stay out of trouble. Even if you contract a virus help
is at hand in the form of antidotes to eradicate the bug from your system
- Anti Virus Software.
