I think you should use firefox instead of IE because firefox is safer. Check out http://www.firefox.com



My ie keeps being taken over by safetyuptodate.com, ive run antivirus and spyware software, what do i do?spyware



stop running IE



run this instead



all are free for a safe surfing experience,



install in SAFE mode with networking ( hit F-8 at boot time ), run them all in SAFE mode



with networking as you'll need it for the updates all the programs below will need.



ANTI VIRAL



AVG (free) http://free.grisoft.com/



FIREWALL



ZoneAlarm http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/co...



WEB BROWSER - http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox



EMAIL use thunderbird. It has a good built in spam filter and learns when you teach it. http://www.mozilla.org/products/thunderb...



SPYWARE

and if you have a wireless router follow these tips,



1. Use WPA encryption (WPA-PSK) it's less crackable then WEP.



2. Make a passphrase that is upper %26 lower case and has some numbers thrown in there as well, again harder to crack.



some like mAkE1t5eCurE0rel53 and as long as possible.



3. Use MAC access control so only you or authorized PC's can connect (even if you do have encryption turned on)
