1. Shop safe.  Make sure that you buy from secure sites by looking for things like the verisign symbol.  Never send credit card information via email, unless it is encrypted.  When there links for places like ebay and paypal in an email make sure they really are from paypal or ebay. Additionally, look for the (s) in https and a the lock symbol at the top of the your computer screen. Give us a call today

2. Backup Your Data.  I can never stress enough how important it is to back up your data.  Get an external hard drive or a jump drive big enough to house your data, or use an off site backup service. In addition, we have seen many companies have a back up in place, but have never tested out a data restore to know if the back ups are taking. Call us today to see if we can help

3. Clean Up.  Get rid of all those old files that no one will ever use again.  Who needs a resume from 1999?  Uninstall programs that aren’t being used. Weekly run updates on your spyware software, and antivirus software. We recommend weekly defragmentation of your system and registry. To keep your system running at top levels consistency is key. Call us to learn about our clean up programs.

4. Get A Checkup.  Have a professional do a routine checkup on your pc.  They’ll look through the event log and remove any malicious software installed. It’s important to do this at least 2 times per year, as systems that run to hard overheat and could cause end of life to a system much sooner. To protect your investment give us a call today.

5. Find good support. Today it’s not enough to have the right technology. You also, have the proper support in place as well.
