Antivirus or anti-virus software is software used to
prevent, detect and remove malware (of all descriptions), such as:
computer viruses, adware, backdoors, malicious BHOs, dialers,
fraudtools, hijackers, keyloggers, malicious LSPs, rootkits, spyware,
trojan horses and worms. Computer security, including protection from
social engineering
techniques, is commonly offered in products and services of antivirus
software companies. This page discusses the software used for the
prevention and removal of malware threats, rather than computer security implemented by software methods.
Here we will provide a few common sense tips to reduce your security risks while
browsing the internet and using internet services. Note that your operating
system, browser, firewall and antivirus software will play a major role in your
security on the internet but you also need to help yourself, as most times we
are the weakest link.
