Weekly Quick Scans: Set a reminder to run a scan every Sunday. Most infections are caught within the first week, so regular checks give you peace of mind.
-
2
Update Everything: Those annoying update popups exist for a reason — they patch security holes. Windows, browsers, Adobe, Java — keep them all current.
-
3
Download Smart: Stick to official websites and app stores. If a "free" version of paid software sounds too good to be true, it probably comes with unwanted extras.
-
4
Think Before You Click: Malware loves email attachments and "urgent" links. Even if an email looks like it's from your bank or a friend, verify suspicious requests through a different channel.
