Why continue to spread viruses, spyware, adware? Mainly, I think, for two reasons:

• DOWNLOAD following ADVERTISING 'MISLEADING

• DOWNLOAD FILE MISLEADING

in both cases is deceived and often can be avoided, even without having an antivirus program installed on your PC.

Case 1: DOWNLOAD following ADVERTISING 'MISLEADING, after clicking on banners or paid advertisements.

To have a greater number of clicks, at times, socierà that distribute viruses and spyware (especially in the second case) can even sponsorship payment! Clicking on one of these banners you are invited to download a FREE FILE then, actually contain spyware, adware or even a virus! So it may happen that a program known or to download a utility, you may come across advertisements that suggest to download the software directly from their Web site: This software will probably be a modified version of art that seems to work perfectly, but in background, can bring up windows advertising or other announcements: these are the programs AD-WARE ILLEGAL because it does not warn the user of the advertising that appears on your PC.

SOLUTION

Do not click on banners that will offer programs, be careful to always use the official website of a particular software company and do not expect ever to win first prize in a lottery WHICH YOU HAVE PARTICIPATED! ;-)

Case 2: DOWNLOAD FILE MISLEADING because of searches of any crack, serial, keygen or unlocker

Almost all users "experts" have made at least once a search to find a way to unblock a program demo / trial / shareware programs that crashed because the trial period has expired "free". These programs often contain within them a spyware or a trojan (a virus-type back-door) that allows other users to take full or partial control of a PC: This procedure is often used to exploit the PC itself and its connection to the Internet as a proxy server or mail server (for sending spam) or even to monitor the user and the sites they visit, taking sensitive data such as email addresses or credit card numbers (when the user types on the keyboard to make a payment).

SOLUTION

Do not use crack, keygen or similar material: they are often released with the specific purpose of "attacking a system." If you want to try a program or utility that you downloaded, prepared in your PC to use as a virtual machine TESTING PLATFORM. There are various ways to implement virtual machines, but this post is not meant to describe the virtual machines. Within this blog, however, there are articles that talk about it.

THE SOLUTION 'NELL'OPENSOURCE, software and FREE FREEWARE

If your needs, you are not obliged to opt for commercial software, and do not want to buy a product that uses a small extent or for a non-professional use, you can opt to search for software that has the features you want and is OPENSOURCE .

The most popular suites ever to videroscrittura and office work at home is definitely OPENOFFICE downloaded FREE from the website:

http://www.openoffice.org

This is an example of scanning a file of a downloaded program in "good faith" by clicking on advertisements displayed after a search

 Official-infected eMule_setup.exe Trojan.Win32.Rootkit.CW

then inserted into the operating system files:

A0007715.exe Infected by Trojan.Win32.Rootkit.ED
A0037418.exe Infected by Trojan.Win32.Rootkit.CW
A0041836.exe Infected by Trojan.Win32.Rootkit.CW

This is an example of scanning a folder containing a series of programs GENERATOR SERIAL, KEYGEN or CRACK
