Blog #4

Hello everyone!
Today I would like to talk about Malware.


Until resently I did not know about Malware.
Resently TV or internet news  talks about Malware, so I recognized how malware is.
Now, I am very worry about my Windows laptop beucase last 2 months I got strenge e-mails from my old friends.
Those e-mail does not have any title or contents. That e-mail has only URL.
I was wondering what is that, so I did not open those URL.
After read articles, I think start my friends' PC are occured by malwares.
Therefore he send me such a strenge e-mails.

My laptop have anti-virounse software, but I am not sure how much it can protect my lap top.
Does anyone know? how much anti-virous software can protect my laptop?

Just a weeks ago, I heread Smart phone have a risk to get malware too.
My smart phone does not have any anti-virous software, so I should get one ASAP.

According to Yuki's blog, I leraned Mac products do not have any risk to get malware!
I did not know that! It is very cool!!
However, I loke Windows products more than Mac.
Therefore Ireally need to protect my products!!

I found such as interesting CM about anti-virounse software!
I hope everyone's PC and smart phone are ok.

Technology help our life, but sometimes it makes our life difficult too!

Be careful everyone!!

  1. A mac does have a risk in getting mal-ware, but you really have to not know what you are doing to get them. Here is one such example: http://www.sltrib.com/sltrib/entertainment/51832910-81/mac-click-virus-software.html.csp
    It is not even close to how vicious a virus is on the Windows, but given the intent by the maker it is one.

  2. Good post. I'm not sure about which is the best anti-virus software. I don't use any on my Macintosh computers. So far, I think I've been lucky.

    You mention that smart phones are now being attacked by malware. Were you able to find any interesting articles or blogs on the topic? It would be helpful if could include one as you did for Yuki's blog on the question of Apple computers and malware.

    One more point, please remember that WB 4 and 5 are supposed to include a question about the topic for the final exam. Can you amend your post to include one, please?

  3. There are many kinds of good FREE anti-virus software!!
    I also use one of them, and it works!!
    (But I forget the name sorry...)

    anti-virus software does not always protect our PC, so We need to be careful about Malware more... :(

  4. Like yourself I like Windows products a lot. It sucks because we are much more susceptible to getting Malware on our computers. All I try to do is make sure my anti-virus is always up to date.
