Around the Holiday Season, the number and variety of threats tend to rise sharply. Cybercriminals plan ahead and like to take advantage of the shopping frenzy aware that most of us don’t have time to shop in-store. They are quick to utilize the popularity of news and entertainment events to trick users, infect and compromise their PCs and make off like The Grinch™ with everything in your bank accounts. Even as you’re online gaming Some of us like to slip away from the family gatherings to play online games. Due to the large multiplayer user bases of online games and the subsequent wide distribution of clients and servers, players are becoming increasingly vulnerable to Internet threats such as trojans, rootkits, viruses and keyloggers. What’s more, hackers are now targeting the virtual assets of online gamers, so that they can sell them in online black-markets for real-world cash. Who’s going to get “done” this season? Crooks persist because occasionally their efforts pay off big time. They’re going to get someone, probably lots of people. Will you be among their victims? There are two main things you can do to protect yourself are: 1. Be sceptical, be savvy, be vigilant:If what’s being offered sounds too good to be true, it just may be. Think twice and check the source before taking goodies from what may be a dodgy site. Even some legitimate sites have been compromised by hackers to install spyware designed to quietly nab your financial details, while you unknowingly continue to use your PC. 2. Get precision technology and powerful protection: An award-winning PC security program such as Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus is recommended to ensure that real time and behavior-based protection is in place to stop malicious programs before they execute their unique nastiness on your PC. When it comes to holiday gift giving, each of us should be able to decide how to spend our budget, rather than have our accounts drained as we sleep. Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus has multi-layer browser protection (Browser Guard, Site Guard) to block you from visiting exploited, hacked or potentially malicious websites and from downloading scareware, rogueware or fake antivirus threats and other malicious downloads. PC Tools wishes you and your family all the best this holiday season, and safe web surfing!
