REALLY USEFUL WEBSITES.

[celticpilgrim]

If you havn't already discovered them, then the following websights are a 'must see'.

 

1. http://grc.com/default.htm

 

is run by Steve Gibson Corcoration. Its one of those rare sites which champions the cause of computer security, especially for 'the little guy'. You wont find ANY spyware/adware or viruses there. But you will find lots of insightful and well written information on how to lock down your computer, that you really won't find anywhere else......as well as extremely useful and free downloads! Highly recommended on your favourites menu.

 

2. http://www.spywarewarrior.com

 

This again is a very useful website for comprehensive listings, comparisons, and expose's of 'Rogue/Suspect Anti-Spyware Products & Websites'.....posing themselves as anti-spyware products; a real eye-opener!. It also makes recommendations for some valuable tried and true software. Very much worth a look.

 

p.s.: if the above aren't links, then mouse over, copy, and paste.

 

regards, Ken.

Two sites that I use on a regular basis.

 

 

For spyware warrior the main thing you need is the rougue spyware program list here:

http://www.spywarewarrior.com/rogue_anti-spyware.htm

 

The forum there is ok but I have seen that it takes ages to get a log cleaned there. They have some pretty good resources though that I read all the time.
