It may be the time to say "no expert can save you, unless you take care of your PC"

If you have read "Is the Botnet Battle Already Lost? ", you may have to check many things with your PC.

The price of going online is to learn the new way for safety. Some years ago, I did not think that I needed Firewall besides anti-virus.

It happened about one month ago when my PC was infected by a virus made in China. May be it is not virus; may be it is not a single one too. But the infection traveled to all PCs and notebooks through the Intranet. Of course, it took me more than ten days to clear all PCs and notebooks with busy works from formatting to re-installation of Windows. Then I have to get a firewall for the major PC.

With firewall, anti-virus and anti-spy running, I have to adapt to the new slow speed of browsing and all intranet operations. Sometimes, I have to use one PC and two notebooks simultaneously so that I shall not waste my time waiting for any operation.

That is the way to keep safe and perhaps some minutes a day would be better than two weeks' time to save the computers and the risk of losing important data.

I am confident that I can adapt this new way since the same type of change had happened two or three times for the past twenty years.
