Summer anti-virus cannot be ignored

Recently, the reporter learned from Kingsoft drug overlord's Global Anti-Virus monitoring center that during the summer, the number of computer viruses began to grow rapidly, especially when some Trojan horses were very active, users' online games, online banking, and QQ account passwords will all face more severe threats.

It is understood that August has always been a high incidence of viruses, many of the most powerful viruses are often used in summer power. In addition, when students have a holiday, the number of Internet users increases in a short period of time, and the virus transmission speed is also unprecedentedly accelerated. Therefore, users must be more vigilant against computer virus harassment during Internet access.

Dai Guangjian, an anti-virus expert of Kingsoft drug overlord, said that during the summer vacation, the number of users playing online games and chatting via QQ will increase, so all types of Trojan horses will increase accordingly, users must develop good network usage habits, promptly upgrade anti-virus software, Enable Firewall, real-time monitoring, and other functions, cut off the virus transmission path, and do not give the virus a chance!

Experts said that the collusion between viruses has been increasing since. For example, the avterminator virus, which has been a serious threat recently, does not cause the virus itself, instead, it collates with a large number of Trojan Horses: first, "avterminator" damages the security system of the user's computer, making the security software in the user's computer unusable. Next, it automatically connects to a website to download a large number of Trojans, this poses a serious threat to users' network assets.

To this end, Kingsoft anti-virus experts suggest that the majority of users do a good job of anti-virus cooling for their computers in advance from the following four aspects, to prevent the intrusion of Trojan horses, resulting in economic losses.

1. Do not open unfamiliar emails at will. At present, many Trojans are spread through email attachments. If attachments are not opened, even if the attachments carry Trojans, they generally cannot run automatically, thus avoiding Trojans being implanted.

2. Do not download or run software with unknown experience. If you need to download the software, we recommend that you download it from some well-known websites. Scan anti-virus software for viruses and Trojans before installing the software.

3. fix vulnerabilities and disable suspicious ports in a timely manner. Generally, Trojans use vulnerabilities to leave backdoors on the system. It is best to disable suspicious ports while fixing the vulnerabilities.

4. upgrade the system and update the virus database in a timely manner. Pay attention to the security announcements of the manufacturer's website, and obtain the latest virus information for early prevention.
