By: John Brady - Fox River Networks

It’s that time of the year when we reflect on the year gone by and consider what lies ahead. Keeping your computer operating efficiently and securely, and having a backup in case of a major failure should be your primary concerns. Fox River Networks suggests that you set some resolutions for your computer and the information on it that is important to you. We can help you accomplish these resolutions and keep you on track all year long.
New Year’s Resolutions that are valid for any computer user include:
-
Back up regularly.
-
Use a surge protector.
-
Install an anti-virus program and keep it updated.
-
Install Windows updates.
-
Use a firewall.
-
Check for viruses and spyware regularly.
- Get a PC Tune-Up to improve the performance and protect your security.
I saw quite a few computers that suffered hard drive failures last year. I also experienced the pain and frustration felt by people that had lost information that was important to them. The most important resolution from the list above is to perform a regular backup. This does not have to be a complicated procedure, it can be as simple as making CD copies of the documents, pictures and other files that are most important to you. Most people only fully appreciate the importance of backups after a failure has occurred.
Surge Protection, ideally with a battery backup are good for your computer. Your computer is a collection of electronic components and providing it clean and consistent electricity will keep it working longer. It’s just like putting good gas in your car.
It is not enough to have anti virus and anti spyware programs on your computer, you must keep them updated and use them regularly. Every day there is some new Internet junk that is looking for an unprotected computer to call home.
Keeping your protection updated and working will keep the junk away from you.
Get a PC Tune-Up when you feel like your computer is running sluggish or when your virus or spyware programs warn you of problems. A PC Tune-Up should address critical privacy, performance and system maintenance issues to be considered effective. Fox River Networks can perform a comprehensive PC Tune-Up through the Internet to save you time and money. Help is just a Click Away.
