TOP 5 Free PC Security Programs

Most of the time when you switch on your PC, your system faces countless Internet-borne dangers, including spyware attacks, viruses, Trojan horses, home-page hijackers, and hackers trying to weasel their way into your system. And the Internet isn’t the only source of trouble. But fighting back is easy. We’ve found 5 great pieces of software–Antivirus, Spyware Removal tools–designed to protect you against any dangers that come your way.

(1) AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition Free antivirus program that comes with lifetime free access to virus definition updates. Highlights include automatic update, real-time protection, free virus database updates, and some more.

(2) Ad-Aware 2007 - Free software to remove Spyware, Adware and whatever Crapware you may have. Scans your RAM, Windows Registry, hard drives, and external storage devices for known data-mining, advertising, and tracking components. One of my all time favorites. Note: After installation, it will ask you for a registration code. Just hit Cancel and you’re good to go.

(3) Spybot - Search & Destroy - Yet another spy removal tool. Also lets you clean-up program and web-usage tracks, and even fix spyware-caused Registry inconsistencies. I have been using it for more then a year now and love it.

(4) Avira AntiVir PersonalEdition Classic - By far less popular than above AVG, also some users report rather slow scan process. Second most popular free antivirus software.

(5) Advanced WindowsCare Personal - Comprehensive PC health maintenance utility that offers one-click clean-up and repair wizard. Features include: Spyware removal, security warnings, privacy protection, Registry fix, temporary files clean-up, Windows repair and more.

Top 10 Web Design Tips

  1. Keep content fresh. Perform monthly maintenance. Set calendar reminders for yourself to update time-sensitive pages like event calendars or posted
    deadlines.
  2. Use white space aesthetically. If your text is too dense, people won't read it. Bullet or number succinct bits of information.
  3. Keep graphics efficient. You may think your 200kb graphic is wonderful, but it will never show up on most users' screens (especially those on slower modems) as they just won't wait long enough to see it. Keep page sizes below 30k if you can (unless your graphics are the 'point' of the page).
  4. Keep your navigation really simple. Work out a consistent navigation style and stick with it. Try not to overload your pages with hundreds of choices that will confuse your visitors. Five to nine choices is the optimum.
  5. Use color to distinguish visited and unvisited links. Knowing where you've been is one of the basic features that all navigation designs should support.
  6. Always include contact information: phone, email.
  7. Test your pages by viewing them on multiple browsers and platforms. If possible, test it from your home computer.
  8. Test accessibility with the WebXACT Accessibility Checker. Always alt-text your graphics; see Accessibility Guidelines for instructions.
  9. Print your pages. Many of your users will print your pages for later reference. If it doesn't look right on paper, you're not done designing yet.
  10. Use the College's Style Guide - http://resources.css.edu/CollegeComm/docs/EditorialGuide.pdf
