Computer security: How to make PCs safe |
Help, an email from an unknown sender!
Most viruses, worms and trojans spread through email. An opened attachment
can infect the computer and pread itself through email.
Therefore, do not open any attachments from unknown senders!
Also, with email-attachments that come from known email users, you should be careful,because
most viruses send itself without knowledge of the known sender
to all the adresses in his adressbook. Antivirus-
Programs
that are updated regularly can help to scan emails with dangerous attachments.
Especially with English mails you should be careful, even if the
sender says he is 'mail administrator'or gives out another official title.
