Virus Information

Viruses are software programs that infect a computer, often through e-mail range from harmless to causing damage to your system and computer. Viruses can use your computer to send itself to other computers, to destroy your system, bog down the Internet, or even to just demonstrate a security issue to a manufacturer.

What does HHWD use?

OK... Shameless Plug:
Honey House Web Designs, uses and recommends Kaspersky Virus Software.

All major virus protection software vendors collaberate to some degree on providing consumers with the protection necessary to be online. However, Kaspersky has the following advantages:

  • The virus definition file (that provides the updates against the newest bugs) updates hourly. No need to wait days or weeks when the a higher level of protection is sometimes necessary
  • Kaspersky does NOT take over the HHWD systems. It is easy to configure and control and working with your system isn't a hassle. It provides the protection we need without locking us out our own email accounts or software
  • Kaspersky runs silently in the background. No popups, no 'sales pitches'. It is unobtrusive and does its job without impacting ours. Want to know more?

(and no, we do not receive kickbacks... it is just that good a product)
